High levels of testosterone and in particular dihydrotestosterone (DHT) also have an adverse affect on the hair follicles.
Causes of hair loss in women include:
The most common cause in women is hormonal.
Changes in hormone levels, such as those seen with menopause, pregnancy, thyroid conditions, or the stopping or starting of birth control pills or hormone replacement therapy, can cause temporary hair loss in women.
