How to Stop PCOS Hair Loss (Androgenetic Alopecia)?

Male-pattern hair thinning (thinning at the crown and temples) is very common in women with PCOS. To stop it, balancing hormones from the inside is essential.

Solutions

  • Spearmint Tea: Drinking two cups of spearmint tea daily has been shown to reduce free testosterone levels.
  • Zinc and Saw Palmetto: Can suppress the production of DHT, the hormone that damages hair follicles.
  • Biotin: This is only a supportive vitamin and won't work on its own without addressing the underlying hormonal imbalance.
