Many women experience hair thinning. However, if you become knowledgeable about issues related to hair, you can avoid problems, including those that cause hair thinning in women.
Basically hair thinning is nothing but hair loss. Many factors contribute this hair loss. Usually women do get bald like the men. the most common cause of hair thinning in women is female pattern baldness, also known androgenic alopecia. Usually men suffer from this type of a hair loss which is caused by DHT or dihydrotestosterone, which is a male sex hormone. the same hormone also causes hair thinning in women and since women have less male hormone in their blood, the hair loss is characterized by hair thinning rather than baldness.
There are products available that act as inhibitors of DHT but you need to consult a doctor in order to prescribe them for you. However, there are some products that you can buy over the Internet that can help you. But before you do this, it is best to read all the possible literature you can find so that you do not end up causing yourself more harm than benefit. if DHT is not the cause of your hair thinning, other factors might be contributing to your hair loss problem.
Other causes of Hair Thinning in Women:
oMedication
oStress
oHormonal imbalance
oBirth control pills
Since DHT is not the only cause of hair thinning in women, it is essential for you to take the hair strands from your brush or the bathroom drainer to a specialist so that he can advice you the best possible treatment for your hair loss.

Gender-bending chemical timebomb...

Chemicals in food, cosmetics and cleaning products are 'feminising' unborn boys and raising their risk of cancer and infertility later in life, an expert warns today.
Professor Richard Sharpe, one of Britain's leading reproductive biologists, says everyday substances are linked to soaring rates of birth defects and testicular cancer, and to falling sperm counts.
The government adviser's report published today is the most detailed yet into the threat posed to baby boys by chemicals that block the action of the male sex hormone testosterone, or mimic the female sex hormone oestrogen.
Professor Sharpe says many could be harmless on their own - but warned that their cumulative effect could be devastating for developing foetuses and warned women trying for a child to avoid them.
'You can't do anything about chemicals in the environment but you can control what you expose a baby to through your lifestyle choices,' he said.
'Because we don't know the complete list of chemicals that may be hormone disrupters, and we don't know how they interact, we can't point a finger at an individual chemical.
'The message is to avoid them, just as you should avoid alcohol and drugs.'
