Best Hair Loss Treatments for Women
Here are top recommended options depending on the cause and severity:
Clinically Proven Treatments
-
Minoxidil (Rogaine for Women) - The most well-established FDA-approved topical treatment; the 2% or 5% foam applied daily helps regrow hair and slow loss
-
Hims/Hers - Online platform offering personalized prescription treatments including minoxidil and other options with doctor consultation
Supplements
- Nutrafol Women - Popular supplement with clinical studies backing it; addresses hormonal and nutritional factors
- Viviscal - Another well-researched supplement with marine-based ingredients shown to promote growth
Professional Treatments
- Keeps - Telehealth service offering convenient consultations and prescribed treatments
- PRP therapy (through a dermatologist) - Platelet-rich plasma injections can stimulate follicles
Shampoos/Topicals
- Nioxin - Good for adding density and scalp health
- Pura D'or - DHT-blocking shampoo with positive reviews
My Top Recommendation
See a dermatologist first to identify the cause (hormonal, stress, nutritional, etc.), then combine Nutrafol with Rogaine 5% foam for the most comprehensive approach.
Results typically take 3-6 months of consistent use.
