Why don't women experience hair loss?
According to a report, the main reason for hair growth and hair loss in men is the change in hormone production in the body. Actually, testosterone, which is called sex hormone, is responsible for the growth of hair on the head. This hormone is included in the androgen hormone group found in boys. When the production of this hormone in the body is reduced, boys experience hair loss and when it is excessively reduced, it can lead to baldness.

If we talk about the causes of baldness in women, then it is known that the amount of testosterone in them is very low. Also, a hormone called estrogen is released in them. For these two reasons, the conversion rate of testosterone to dihydrotestosterone is lower in females. The result is that the problem of baldness becomes invisible to them. While your hair loss will start during menopause or pregnancy, it is only a temporary phase.
