About Our Hair Loss Service
Hair loss can affect both men and women and may have a significant impact on confidence and self-esteem. While male pattern baldness (androgenetic alopecia) is one of the most common causes, hair loss can also be linked to hormonal changes, stress, medical conditions, medications, nutritional deficiencies, and autoimmune conditions.
Our pharmacy team provides private consultations to help identify possible causes of hair loss and discuss suitable treatment options based on your individual needs.
Common causes of hair loss include:
- Genetic male pattern baldness
- Hormonal changes
- Stress or illness
- Autoimmune conditions such as alopecia areata
- Nutritional deficiencies
- Medical treatments such as chemotherapy or radiotherapy
- Certain medications or underlying health conditions
Identifying the underlying cause is an important part of selecting the most appropriate treatment. Our pharmacists can provide professional advice and help you understand which treatment options may be suitable for you.
