Does Hormone Replacement Therapy Help with Hair Loss in Men and Women?

Hair loss can be overwhelming, but you're not alone. Whether you've started to notice a receding hairline or more strands in the shower drain, it's natural to look for answers. Bioidentical hormone replacement therapy (BHRT) is quickly becoming a popular option for addressing hair loss in men and women.

What does thinning hair look like?

Before exploring BHRT, it's important to understand the symptoms of hair loss. So, what does thinning hair look like? And how can you tell if your hair is thinning or just going through a natural shedding process?

Hair loss in men and women looks different, with men typically experiencing a receding hairline and baldness at the crown. Women, on the other hand, tend to see hair thinning throughout their scalp. Concerning signs of hair loss include:

• Noticeable decrease in overall volume
• Widening part or visible scalp through hair
• Excessive shedding during brushing or washing
• Change in texture or brittleness of hair

If you have any of these issues, it's important to consult with a specialist to determine the underlying cause and explore possible treatments. BHRT therapy may be a suitable option for those with hair loss due to hormonal imbalances.

Understanding hormone replacement therapy

When our hormone levels become unbalanced, it can lead to challenges that feel frustrating or overwhelming. For instance, men notice hair loss as testosterone levels naturally decline with age. Women may also experience similar changes during menopause. At Tulsa Surgical Arts, we offer hormone replacement therapy to help restore hormone levels and improve hair health.

Our office in Tulsa, OK, administers hormone therapy in the form of capsules, topical creams, injections, or small pellets that are inserted right beneath the skin. Each method releases a specific dosage of hormones into the body, and our team can determine the method for your needs and goals.

Is hormone replacement therapy safe?

Many people ask, "Is hormone replacement therapy safe?" The answer is yes when administered by a qualified medical professional. Dr. Cuzalina and Dr. Nelson are highly trained and will closely monitor your progress to ensure safety and effectiveness.

In addition to improving hair health, BHRT therapy can provide other benefits, such as increased energy levels, improved mood, and better sleep quality. A hormonal imbalance can often cause these symptoms in both men and women, so correcting them with BHRT can greatly improve overall well-being. We are here to support you every step of the way.
