Women's hair loss

Your hair is changing.
There's a reason — and a treatment.

Women's hair loss is often hormonal, postpartum, or stress-related — and it's far more common than most people know. A licensed provider reviews your situation and recommends a plan built around your specific cause.

Common causes

Women's hair loss is rarely just one thing.

Understanding what's driving your hair loss is the first step. Your provider will review your situation in full — but here are the most common triggers we see.

Very common

Postpartum shedding

Affects up to 50% of women after delivery. Usually starts at 3–6 months postpartum. Often temporary, but treatment can speed recovery and prevent permanent thinning.

Common

Hormonal transitions

Perimenopause, menopause, stopping birth control — all can trigger hair thinning through shifting estrogen and androgen levels. Minoxidil addresses the symptom while the underlying shift stabilizes.

Common

Female pattern hair loss

Androgenetic alopecia in women — often presents as a widening part or overall density reduction rather than a receding hairline. Genetic, and more common than most people realize.

Common

Telogen effluvium

Stress-, illness-, or nutritional-deficit-triggered shedding. Often resolves when the trigger resolves — but treatment can support recovery and prevent continued loss.

Worth ruling out

Thyroid & nutritional factors

Low ferritin, thyroid dysfunction, and vitamin D deficiency are among the most commonly missed contributors to women's hair loss. Your provider may flag these for investigation.

Treatment options

Minoxidil — the primary evidence-backed treatment for women.

Unlike men's hair loss, finasteride is generally not prescribed for women. Minoxidil — topical or low-dose oral — is the gold standard, with a growing evidence base and a strong safety profile.

FAQ

Questions women actually ask.

Will my hair grow back after postpartum shedding?
Postpartum hair loss is usually temporary and resolves on its own within 6–12 months. Minoxidil can accelerate the recovery and is particularly helpful if loss continues beyond 12 months or if you want to support regrowth more actively.
Can I use this while breastfeeding?
No. Minoxidil is not recommended during breastfeeding. Your assessment will flag this and suggest appropriate timing for when to start treatment.
How is this different from Rogaine?
The active ingredient (minoxidil) is the same. The difference is that Dibs includes a physician review, a personalized recommendation on dose and format, and ongoing provider access — not just a product you buy off the shelf.
When will I see results?
Most women see reduced shedding within 2–3 months. Visible density improvement typically takes 4–6 months of consistent use. Hair growth is slow — patience and consistency matter more than anything else.
Can I cancel any time?
Yes. One button in your account dashboard. No chat, no retention loop, no waiting period. Confirmed by email immediately.
