Answer 1

It is depend upon the causes of hair loss because the condition of hair loss varies person to person.

The most common type of hair loss seen in women is androgenetic alopecia. Women generally experience diffused thinning over the top of the head or crown, while most often maintaining a frontal hairline. Female pattern baldness usually begins about age 30, even as early as in 20s, becomes noticeable around age 40, and may be even more noticeable after menopause.

As you age, a combination of heredity, the effects of hormones and age causes certain hair follicles to get smaller and smaller. This prevents the hair from fulfilling its regular growth process. Hair follicles gradually become smaller and the period of time in which the hair grows is reduced. And hair that can only grow for a short time is shorter, thinner, even colorless.

In addition to androgenetic alopecia, temporary conditions such as pregnancy, medication, diet, or stress can also cause women hair loss.
