Noticing more hair in your brush… a wider part… or thinning around your crown and temples — and wondering if it’s “just aging”?
You’re not alone — and yes, perimenopause can absolutely impact hair thickness and shedding.
In this Quick Hit episode of the Inspired Wellness Podcast, Michelle White explains why hair thinning happens in perimenopause and what you can do to support hair growth naturally — without overwhelm or shame.
In this episode, you’ll learn:
- How shifting estrogen and progesterone can affect the hair growth cycle
- Why estrogen helps keep hair in the growth phase longer (and what happens when it declines)
- The role of androgens in women — and why they can contribute to scalp thinning (and chin/upper lip hair, too)
- How stress and elevated cortisol can push hair into a shedding phase
- Key nutrition foundations for hair health, including iron, zinc, B vitamins (B12/biotin), and omega-3s
- Simple, realistic lifestyle support: stress management, sleep, gentle hair care, and scalp massage
- An approachable option to support relaxation and circulation: craniosacral therapy
If you’re dealing with thinning hair in perimenopause — or you want to be proactive — this episode will give you clear, actionable steps to support your body and your hair through this transition.
