How I Reversed My Hair Loss At 42

MP3•Episode home

In this episode, I share my personal journey with hair loss, especially as I entered my 40s and began experiencing perimenopause. I discuss how hair loss became a powerful messenger about my overall health, not just a cosmetic concern.

Key Topics Covered:

The critical role of estrogen and progesterone in hair growth and how hormonal changes during perimenopause and menopause impact hair cycles.
My own experience with increased hair shedding, stress, and the realization that hair health reflects deeper systemic issues.
The importance of looking beyond surface solutions (like shampoos or supplements) and investigating root causes such as stress, thyroid function, mineral balance, and gut health.
The impact of chronic stress on nutrient depletion, thyroid health, and hair loss.
Why comprehensive testing (bloodwork, mineral analysis, gut health) can provide valuable insights.
The dangers of toxic hair and personal care products, and how to make safer choices.
Nutrition and lifestyle changes that made a difference for me: increasing protein and healthy carbs, using minerals and adaptogens, prioritizing rest, and reducing intense exercise during certain cycle phases.
Practical tips: scalp massage with oils, red light therapy, regular trims, and being gentle with hair care routines.
Encouragement for listeners: hair loss is not about vanity, but vitality. Don't give up—focus on restoring balance and supporting your body from within.
