Hair Regrowth for Women


Female hair loss, otherwise known as female pattern baldness or androgenetic alopecia (sometimes also abbreviated to androgenic alopecia) will affect up to 40% of women in their lifetime.  

There is a lot misunderstanding around female hair loss with most doctors not understanding that women even suffer from androgenetic alopecia or are impacted by DHT.

At Stop and Regrow around 30% of our client base are female. This makes sense since around 50% to 70% of men and 25% to 40% of women inherit the genetics that lead to androgenic hair loss.

Female hair loss often has more complicating factors however. While an inherited enzyme abnormality may be the underlying root cause, other factors such as stress, nutrition and lifestyle also play a part and will speed up both onset and progression of hair loss. Plus, they can also sometimes cause hair loss on their own. Without correctly diagnosing and treating ALL the factors that lead to your unique case, the treatment will not be successful. Diagnosis is therefore the most important component of our program.

How Do You Diagnose Hair Loss?

After more than 25 years of research and study into all the factors that influence hair and overall health, Doctor Nettles has created a suite of lab tests called the Biochemical Report Card. The Biochemical Report Card (BRC) contains 9 panels of tests that cover everything from cell and organ health, nutritional intake, the hormone axis, enzyme activity and thyroid. The BRC along with a microscopic examination of your scalp and our lifestyle impact survey enable us to understand exactly all the factors that are contributing to your personal hair loss, plus your overall health and well-being.

Once we understand all these contributing factors, we can create a holistic plan designed to first stop your active hair loss process and then turn around and reverse it. Over time your hair will thicken and regrow to the lustrous and beautiful locks you once had.  

What Are Typical Stop and Regrow Program Components?

The Stop and Regrow women's hair regrowth treatment program is a holistic program that includes the following components:

 

  • Nutrition – guidance and advice for optimal hair growth and overall health
  • Exercise - to promote healthy circulation which is required for healthy hair growth
  • Meditation – for stress management. We also can provide stress counselling if needed
  • Medical Supplements - where needed to resolve imbalances or deficiencies identified in the bloodwork
  • Topical Serum – which includes a hair growth stimulant to speed up the regrowth phase

 

What Can You Expect in Terms of Results?

Because female hair loss is more complex, it also takes longer to first stop the hair loss and then regrow thinning hair. Average results you can expect are as follows:

Stopping Phase – Generally lasts for 6-12 months. During this phase we focus on healthy hair nutrition and rebalancing your biochemistry as well as removing any environmental factors contributing to your hair loss such as stress.

Regrowth Phase – Once we have your hair loss stopped, we can focus on regrowing it. This phase generally will last about half the time you have been thinning. Say for example your hair has been thinning for the last 6 years. It will likely take about 3 years in the regrowth phase to get back to where you were 6 years ago.

Maintenance Phase – Once your hair has grown back as thick as you would like and you are happy with it, you move into the maintenance phase. At this point you can stop using the topical serum which is the most expensive component of the program.

At the Stop and Regrow clinic we are successfully treating and regrowing women’s hair in clients as young as 15 aged right up to 88 years of age.


The most common reaction we receive from our happy clients? “I’ve got back my energy, I sleep better and I don't feel so tired all the time”.  Women come to see us for hair, but stay for the improved health and well-being that results from their improved biochemistry.
