Terms & Conditions

Every experience is personal, but hair loss and thinning will happen to many of us. Women experiencing hair loss during Perimenopause and Menopause will often experience diffuse thinning—gradual shedding across the scalp, especially on the top, sides, or front. This happens because estrogen and progesterone levels drop, slowing hair growth, while increased androgens (male hormones) can shrink hair follicles, making hair thinner.

It’s not an overnight cure, but some treatments can help. Supplements, like saw palmetto, ashwagandha, and marine collagen, may help support hair growth by balancing stress hormones and reducing inflammation. Minoxidil is a well-known topical treatment that stimulates hair follicles, while spironolactone and finasteride (prescription options) block DHT, a hormone linked to hair loss. For a more advanced approach, platelet-rich plasma (PRP) therapy—where your platelets are injected into the scalp—has been shown to slow shedding and improve hair thickness. Whatever the method, patience is key, as real results often take several months.

Every woman’s experience with skin changes during Perimenopause and Menopause is unique, influenced in part by factors like sun exposure and skincare habits over the years and her genetics. As women, we start losing collagen in our 30’s, so if we’re thinking about how to treat our current issues then much of what we need to look at is also prevention. In perimenopause, one of the most common concerns is increased dryness, ironically many women also notice an increased number of breakouts. During menopause skin becomes thinner, less firm, and more wrinkle-prone, which can make bruising easier. This is largely due to a sharp decline in collagen and elastin—the proteins responsible for keeping skin plump and resilient. This loss happens rapidly at the start of menopause before gradually slowing over time, contributing to sagging, fine lines, and an overall reduction in skin volume.

The best way to protect your skin is through preventative care and having a good skincare routine that’s easy to stick to. Hyperpigmentation and age spots are a common concern for people over the age of 50. Start with the basics. A cleanser, nothing too foaming or aggressive. Moisturizer and SPF. If you manage, add a decent vitamin C in the morning (before your SPF) and a retinoid depending on your main skin concerns (in the evening), followed by moisturizer.
