Hair loss is something that many women experience; in fact, as many as one in two women will experience it at some point in their lives. It is normal to lose up to 100 hairs a day. However, if you lose more than this, it can be distressing to notice your hair becoming thinner. This can affect your self-confidence and cause anxiety. Fortunately, there are many ways to tackle hair loss. In this blog, we explore the most common causes of hair loss in women and suggest suitable treatments.
One of the most common causes of hair loss in women is hereditary hair loss, also known as alopecia androgenetica. This is caused by a genetic predisposition and increased sensitivity to the hormone dihydrotestosterone (DHT). Hair loss often starts at the centre parting and gradually spreads across the top of the head. The hair becomes thinner, but the hairline usually remains intact. This type of hair loss often occurs after the menopause, but can also start earlier.
Recommended treatment
In the early stages of hereditary hair loss, we recommend starting hair growth stimulating products that reduce the influence of DHT and promote hair growth. Neofollics Shampoo and Neofollics Tablets contain powerful ingredients that strengthen the hair follicles and help prevent further hair loss. In cases of more advanced hair loss, additional treatment with Neofollics Lotion can provide extra support and visible improvement.
Veta's hair growth-stimulating shampoo forms the basis of the treatment.
This contains various hair growth stimulating ingredients and DHT inhibitors, plus the essential vitamins and minerals for healthy hair growth from within.

Hormonal fluctuations are a common cause of hair loss in women. Events such as pregnancy, the menopause or changes in contraceptive use can disrupt the hormonal balance. This can cause the hair to suddenly enter a resting phase, leading to diffuse hair loss across the entire head. This form of hair loss is called telogen effluvium and fortunately usually recovers within a few months to a year.
Recommended treatment
To support your hair during hormonal fluctuations, we recommend an approach that focuses on recovery from within and care from without. A combination of Neofollics Shampoo, MSM powder and Neofollics Tablets helps nourish the hair roots, support the hair cycle and prevent further hair loss.

Hair loss due to stress, illness and/or medication
Sometimes your body can become unbalanced due to medical conditions or prolonged stress. Conditions such as an underactive thyroid, anaemia or autoimmune diseases such as alopecia areata can cause hair loss. Medications such as antidepressants, steroids, contraceptives or chemotherapy can also have hair loss as a side effect.
Stress also plays a major role. Prolonged stress causes your body to produce more cortisol, a hormone that can disrupt the hair growth cycle. This causes more hairs to fall out at the same time, leading to visibly thinner hair. This type of hair loss is known as telogen effluvium.
Recommended treatment
For hair loss caused by stress, we recommend a holistic approach that addresses both the physical and mental aspects. The combination of Revita.SOD Tablets, Spectral.F7 Lotion and Neofollics Shampoo helps nourish the hair follicles, reduce stress and stimulate hair growth.
Revita.SOD contains all the vitamins, minerals and amino acids essential for hair growth.
Second, Spectral.F7 lotion is especially suitable for people who suffer from hair loss due to illness, stress or aging.
Third, Neofollics shampoo stimulates hair regrowth and brings your hair into its optimal shape.
A healthy lifestyle plays a major role in the health of your hair. Deficiencies in iron, vitamins or other essential nutrients can cause your hair to become weaker and fall out more quickly. Eating disorders such as anorexia and bulimia can also have a negative impact on hair growth. Eating a good, varied diet with sufficient nutrients is therefore crucial for strong and healthy hair.
Recommended treatment
For hair loss caused by nutritional deficiencies, we recommend a combination of Neofollics Lotion and Neofollics Shampoo. The lotion helps to activate hair growth and protect the hair follicles, while the shampoo keeps the scalp healthy and promotes the absorption of active ingredients. This creates the optimal environment for regrowth.
Neofollics shampoo, possibly supplemented with Neofollics conditioner, stimulates the regrowth of your hair and inhibits inflammation in the scalp.
In addition, they care for your scalp and hair.
The combination of these two products provides a more powerful effect and a greater chance of rapid hair growth.
Hair loss in women can be caused by a variety of factors, from hereditary factors and hormonal fluctuations to stress, illness or nutritional deficiencies. Whatever your situation, you are not alone.
