Return To Hair Loss Article Archive   Search the Article Archives Preventing Hair Loss With Chinese Herbs! By Gina George What is Natural Menopause? Natural menopause has occurred when a woman has not had a menstrual period for a full year. When menstruation has permanently ended without any kind of medical intervention, natural menopause has been reached. Menopause is a change that is a natural and normal occurrence. Its not clear what the cause of hair loss is, but family history certainly plays a role - your father or your mother can pass along the gene whether you are male or female. When women are in menopause, the hormones estrogen and androgen start to shift. The body begins to make fewer of these hormones, but there is more of a drop in estrogen than there is in androgen. This imbalance worsens your hair loss. Women lose their hair differently than men. Their hair loss tends to be an overall thinning. The center part starts getting wider and the ponytail gets a little thinner. Lifestyle Changes to Prevent Hair Loss 1. Herbal medicine - Chinese herbal medicine uses formulas that act as blood tonics and liver cleansers to promote healthy hair growth. Herbs such as black cohosh, Mexican yam and Agnus castus can help hormonal balance. 2. Acupuncture - can improve circulation and digestion. Daily use of a plum blossom hammer (a small hammer with five or seven tiny needle points) on the scalp can promote local circulation and stimulate hair growth. 3. Homeopathy - lycopodium can reduce hair loss after pregnancy. Sepia can be used for hair loss linked to menopause and also that associated with hot flushes and night sweats. Phosphoric acid may help if grief, stress and emotion are the main triggers. Tips to Prevent Hair Loss According to Garrison, teasing hair and spraying it so that it sits high off the scalp actually defeats your purpose. You may think that youre making your hair appear thicker, but youre actually creating a 'teased-out bubble' that you can see through - all the way to the scalp. Some volume is good - just make sure it still looks natural. Due to a lack of credible information, many women are still confused about the reason for their thinning hair and hair loss.
