FEMale Hair Loss
Hair loss in women is often multifactorial and rarely follows a single pattern. At Advanced Trichology, we break it down into three root causes: hormonal (Zone 1), nutritional (Zone 2), and inflammatory (Zone 3). Many women experience DHT-related thinning, especially around the temples or crown, often triggered by hormonal shifts like menopause, PCOS, or postpartum changes. Nutritional deficiencies—particularly in iron, vitamin D3, ferritin, zinc, and folate—can silently impair hair growth even when standard labs look “normal.” Inflammatory contributors, like autoimmune responses or chronic internal stress, can also disrupt the hair cycle and cause diffuse shedding. That’s why a customized approach is critical—because no two cases of female hair loss are exactly the same. Our Zone Hair Pull Test™ helps identify which zones are contributing to your hair loss so you can take targeted, proven action.
Understanding The Science
Hair loss isn’t random—it follows a pattern.
At Advanced Trichology, we’ve identified three scientifically validated root causes of hair thinning:
hormonal (DHT), nutritional deficiencies, and inflammation. These underlying causes show up in predictable
zones on the scalp, allowing us to pinpoint the true source of your hair loss—and treat it with precision.
When testosterone is converted into DHT (dihydrotestosterone), it can shrink follicles and shorten the hair growth cycle. This hormonal imbalance is most often seen at the temples and crown—and is the leading cause of hair loss in both men and women. Our DHT-focused solutions help block this conversion and protect follicles over time.

Evans, Nguyen, Fernande, 2024Lack of essential vitamins and minerals like iron, D3, and biotin can silently starve hair follicles—leading to excessive shedding and slow regrowth. Nutritional deficiencies are often reflected in thinning along the sides and back of the scalp. Our targeted nutraceuticals are designed to restore these critical nutrients at clinical strength.

Evans, Nguyen, Fernande, 2024Scalp imbalance can disrupt healthy hair growth at the root. When the scalp becomes irritated—due to stress, immune changes, or product buildup—it can reduce blood flow and compromise follicle health, leading to shedding or thinning. At Advanced Trichology, we address this using a combination of calming botanicals, probiotics, and targeted nutrients that help support your body’s natural inflammatory and immune responses—both topically and internally—to promote a healthier scalp environment.
