Sudden hair loss in women can be caused by a variety of triggers. One type of stress-induced hair loss is called telogen effluvium. It's caused by periods of heightened emotional stress, illness, having a baby (particularly being postpartum), menopause, certain medications and even changes in diet and weight (Asghar et al., 2020). Telogen effluvium is usually temporary, but in some cases it can reveal a genetic tendency to another type of hair loss called androgenic alopecia.

Unlike Telogen effluvium, Androgenic alopecia is a progressive type of hair loss, that can be caused by hormone changes and is more common in post-menopausal females.

It's important to consult with a healthcare professional if you’re experiencing hair loss to correctly identify the type of hair loss you're experiencing and review your treatment options. We can help!

There are many ways to support female hair loss.
Since the reasons for female hair loss can be unique and complex, treatment plans specifically designed to target multiple causes at the same time are superior. For example, hair loss can be driven by hormonal effects and inflammation. Solutions that target both can increase the chances for treatment success.

If you aren't ready for medicated treatment, there are non-medicated options like shampoos and conditioners. XYON's retail line of hair care products are specially formulated with ingredients that can help create a healthy scalp environment for optimized hair growth.

Propylene glycol and Ethanol are not ingredients in the SiloxysSystem™ Gel. SiloxysSystem™ Gel does contain a type of chemical related alcohol called caprylyl glycol, which is a common ingredient within the cosmetics industry that functions as a humectant. This means that it designed to draw moisture into the skin and helps to keep it hydrated. It is generally considered safe for all skin types and should not be confused with the alcohols you may find in a foam or spray version of other hair growth solutions.

As with any sensitivity or allergy it is still recommended to share these concerns with any physician or pharmacist you may be receiving treatment from.

When it comes to treating hair loss, patience is key. Depending on the medication, it can take 6-12 months or sometimes longer to notice visible improvement in hair loss. Women may need to wait a little longer than men to see results.

Improvements include new growth and preventing further hair loss.

Certain prescription hair growth treatments are contraindicated (i.e. forbidden) for people who are trying to conceive, are pregnant or breastfeeding. If you may be or could become pregnant, you must discuss this with your prescriber. They'll be able to confirm whether any of the available offerings are safe and appropriate for you. If prescribed, you will also need to ensure that you are taking the appropriate precautions to avoid becoming pregnant while on treatment.
