Menopause brings a lot of changes—some expected, some not so much. One of the most frustrating surprises for many women is hair thinning or hair loss. If you've noticed more hair in your brush or less volume than you used to have, you're definitely not alone. But the good news? There are ways to support healthier, fuller hair during this stage of life.

Why Does Hair Loss Happen During Menopause?

As we go through menopause, our hormone levels—especially estrogen and progesterone—start to fluctuate and drop. These hormones play a big role in keeping our hair healthy and in its growth phase. When they decrease, hair can grow more slowly, become thinner, or even fall out more easily.

But hormones aren’t the only culprits. Factors like stress, nutritional deficiencies, and even genetics can make menopausal hair loss more noticeable. And while it’s common, it can still feel really discouraging.

What Can You Do About It?

First, know that you're not powerless. There are several ways to support your hair health during

menopause:

1. Nourish from the Inside Out: Make sure you're getting enough iron, zinc, biotin, and protein in your diet—these nutrients are key for strong, healthy hair.

2. Be Gentle: Avoid harsh hair treatments or excessive heat styling, which can weaken hair further.

3. Address Stress: Stress can make hair loss worse, putting more hair into the telogen (hair shedding) phase, so finding ways to manage stress (like exercise, meditation, or talking to a professional) can really help.

4. Choose the Right Hair Products: This is where MONAT comes in!
