Hair loss is commonly perceived as a condition that affects only men. However, it is not just a male issue—female hair loss is also becoming increasingly common and is now considered one of the modern lifestyle-related conditions. Over the past few years, the number of women experiencing thinning hair has reportedly increased by three to four times compared to the past.
This condition does not only affect older individuals. Many younger women, including those in their 20s and 30s, are also beginning to show signs of hair thinning, and we see a growing number of them seeking treatment at our clinic.
Unfortunately, hair loss cannot be effectively treated with shampoos or treatments sold in salons or over the counter. While there are many products labeled as “hair growth shampoos” or “hair-strengthening treatments,” these are primarily intended to improve the appearance and condition of the hair, not to stimulate actual hair growth.
If you’re looking for real and lasting results, medical treatment from a professional clinic is strongly recommended.
At our clinic, we specialize in treating hair loss in both men and women. Drawing on our extensive clinical
experience, we offer a wide range of tailored treatments designed specifically for female hair loss to help you restore fuller, healthier hair.
Diffuse Thinning:
Unlike men, women typically experience overall thinning across the scalp rather than developing noticeable bald spots.
Widening Part Line:
One of the early signs of female hair loss is a gradually widening part line.
Thinning at the Crown:
Many women notice thinning around the crown area, while the frontal hairline often remains intact.
Seasonal or Hormonal Fluctuations:
Female hair loss can be triggered by hormonal changes such as pregnancy, menopause, or thyroid imbalance.
Stress and Diet-Related:
Emotional stress, poor nutrition, or rapid weight loss can also contribute to temporary hair shedding (telogen effluvium).
Slow Progression:
Female pattern hair loss tends to progress slowly, making it less noticeable in the early stages.
At our clinic, we offer comprehensive and medically proven treatment options for women experiencing hair thinning.
We primarily recommend oral medication containing minoxidil (Prohair⁺), which works from within the body to promote natural hair growth.
In addition to this, topical treatments with minoxidil are available to further support the hair follicles directly at the scalp.
For those seeking more advanced care, we also offer regenerative medicine-based injection therapy, which uses cutting-edge techniques to stimulate the scalp and improve hair density.
While supplements can be helpful as a supportive measure, they are not a substitute for medical treatment. We view them as a way to enhance the effectiveness of the core therapies.
Our approach is to provide each patient with a customized treatment plan based on their individual hair condition and overall health, ensuring safe and effective results.
Minoxidil acts directly on hair matrix cells to improve blood flow. Increasing blood flow transports more nutrients to hair follicles and promotes hair growth.
Used on its own, Minoxidil promotes growth of existing follicles, but it is not very effective at creating fine peach fuzz. Therefore, combining Minoxidil and finasteride is held to be the most effective means of promoting hair growth.
Minoxidil can be administered topically or ingested. While the topical formulation can be purchased at pharmacies, the internal medication is not prescribed at many standard medical facilities and is rather the domain of hair growth clinics
Oral Minoxidil should be used with caution and always under the supervision of a medical professional. It is not recommended in the following cases:
Minoxidil works by dilating blood vessels, which may cause the body to retain salt and water.
This can potentially lead to heart failure in individuals with the above contraindications. Additionally, because it can increase heart rate, it is often prescribed alongside beta blockers, which help regulate pulse, lower blood pressure, and promote diuresis.
In some cases, Minoxidil is used together with supplements or other medications to help lower blood pressure.
About Self-Medication and Safety Although oral Minoxidil is available for individual purchase, we strongly advise against self-medicating.
Counterfeit or improperly dosed products may not only fail to provide results but could be extremely harmful—potentially worsening hair loss or causing serious side effects.
For diffuse hair loss, we recommend a treatment centered around custom-made prescription medications specifically formulated for women.
In addition to medication, taking supplements alongside your treatment may help prevent further hair loss and improve the overall quality of newly grown hair.
Since supplements generally do not cause side effects, they can be started easily and safely.
Some supplements not only support hair health but also benefit the skin, allowing you to care for both at the same time.
However, please note that supplements are not hair growth medications, so they do not directly stimulate hair growth.
They are intended to support and enhance your current condition, helping to maintain and improve the health of your scalp and hair over time.
Pantogar is a hair growth supplement developed by a German pharmaceutical company, specifically designed for women.
It contains essential nutrients and active ingredients necessary for maintaining healthy hair.
By supplying key nutrients through cellular metabolism—such as amino acids, proteins, and a special combination of B vitamins—Pantogar supports the growth of strong, resilient, and healthy hair.
Scientific studies have shown that Pantogar can help reduce hair loss in women, promote healthy hair regrowth, and improve hair quality and resistance.
Please note:
If you are pregnant, breastfeeding, or have any known allergies, please consult with a medical professional before taking this supplement.
The Pantogar active ingredients Cystine, an amino acid, is largely responsible for the structure of hair keratin and promotes the growth of healthy hair. B-group vitamins, such as thiamine (vitamin B1) and calcium pantothenate (vitamin B5), are indispensable for the high metabolic activity in the formation of new hair cells. Medicinal yeast has a high content of vitamins, essential amino acids, minerals, trace elements and enzymes and is a rich source of B-group vitamins. It has beneficial effects on the metabolism of the skin and hair.
