What is meant by hair loss caused by menopause?

During menopause, hair may become thinner as a result of declining estrogen levels. With menopause, hormonal balance shifts, which can make hair follicles more sensitive to androgens. A typical symptom is increasing thinning on the top of the head. In addition, hair may appear finer and drier. Hormone replacement therapy can trigger menopause-related hair loss or exacerbate existing hair loss.

A combined strategy involving hair growth stimulants and medical consultation may be beneficial.
