Are Early Symptoms of Menopause Affecting Your Hair?

Menopause almost always affects the hair on your scalp. Symptoms of menopause can include dullness, dryness and thinning of the hair. 50 is the average age for menopause, but changes to the hair can begin long before. Rarely anyone over 40 has the same volume of hair they had in their 20’s, but heading towards the menopause can be an accelerating cause.  Most commonly, women may notice a gradual reduction in the thickness/volume of each strand.

The changes are most commonly induced by a decrease in oestrogen. This hormonal dip can effect sexual arousal, mood swings and the growth cycle of hair as oestrogen keeps hair in its growing phase. The longer period of the growing phase – the longer your hair can grow. 

Reduced oestrogen levels cause the hair growth cycle to shorten and the hair sheds before it reaches the lengths that it used to be able to – which in tow causes spilt ends and dryness. This can be both frustrating and alarming to say the least.

But what can women do in the meantime to help support their hair growth and ensure its durability?

New Nordic’s Hair Volume Gummies supply nutrients to the scalp and hair follicles where the hair is formed helping to maintain hair strength and reinforce hair protein from the first sprout of new hair. Formulated with apple, millet, copper, biotin and zinc this active combination ensures each strand pre, during and post menopause is protected leading to fuller, healthier looking hair.
