What Causes Hair Loss in Women?
Hair loss in women is much less than in men. Hair loss is less and there may not be male pattern hair loss in general. In women with hair loss starting from the front, which we call male type, hair transplantation is appropriate and the success rate is high. Since the techniques and experience in the first period of hair transplantation were insufficient, hair transplantation attempts and failures for women who experienced hair loss caused women to stay away from hair transplantation.

Because there is not much difference between hair transplantation in women and hair transplantation in men. It is necessary to pay attention to some differences in hair transplantation for women or men. First of all, why does hair fall in women, let’s look at the causes of hair loss together.
