Thinning hair can feel confusing, stressful, and even emotional — especially when the shedding seems sudden or you’re unsure what’s causing it. The good news? Whether it’s hormonal, stress-related, genetic, or the result of environmental factors, there are effective hair loss treatment options available today.

This guide explores everything you need to know if you’re experiencing thinning hair — from identifying the cause to choosing the best hair loss treatments. You’ll also learn how PURA D’OR products support healthier, stronger, thicker-looking hair naturally.

Before choosing the best treatment for hair loss, it's essential to understand why your hair is thinning. Different causes require different solutions- and treating the wrong cause can lead to frustration.

Common Causes of Thinning Hair

1. Hormonal Imbalances

Hormones are one of the biggest contributors to hair loss- especially:

• After pregnancy

• Perimenopause and menopause

• Thyroid disorders

• High cortisol (stress hormone)

This is why hair loss treatment for women over 40 often focuses on hormonal support, nutritional supplementation, and medical therapies that counteract follicular miniaturization.

2. Genetic Factors

Also known as androgenetic alopecia, hereditary hair loss affects:

• Men as early as their 20s

• Women typically starting in their 30s–40s

This type of loss responds best to clinically proven treatments such as minoxidil and finasteride (for men).

3. Stress and Lifestyle

Stress-related thinning (telogen effluvium) triggers sudden shedding.
This is common in:

• Post-surgery recovery

• Illness (including hair loss after COVID)

• Major emotional stress

• Sudden diet changes or rapid weight loss

The good news? This form of loss is usually temporary with proper support.

4. Nutritional Deficiencies

Key nutrients that support healthy hair include:

• Iron

• Vitamin D

• Zinc

• Biotin

• Omega-3 fatty acids

• Protein

If your diet lacks these, a natural hair loss treatment approach may bring noticeable improvement.

5. Autoimmune Causes

Patchy thinning—known as alopecia areata—happens when the immune system attacks hair follicles.
This requires targeted medical treatment.

If your hair is thinning, knowing the type of hair loss you have will help you choose a hair loss treatment that actually works.

Here’s how to figure it out:

Early Signs of Pattern Hair Loss

• Receding hairline (common in men under 30)

• Thinning at the crown

• Widening part (common in women)

• Gradual miniaturization

Early Signs of Telogen Effluvium

• Sudden shedding

• Diffuse thinning across the whole scalp

• Loss triggered by an event (stress, childbirth, illness)

• Handfuls of hair coming out while washing

Signs of Patchy Hair Loss

• Small round bald spots

• Beard or brow hair loss

• Rapid onset

If you’re unsure, a dermatologist or trichologist can perform:

• Scalp exam

• Blood tests

• Pull test

• Hormonal panel

• Thyroid evaluation

Once you know the cause, you can choose the most effective hair loss treatment for your situation.

This section covers all categories of hair loss treatments, from natural solutions to clinical approaches — and how PURA D’OR fits into each strategy.

PURA D’OR offers some of the most recognized natural hair loss treatment options on the market, known for clean ingredients, botanical DHT blockers, and scalp-nourishing formulas.

• Great for early-to-moderate thinning

• Designed for stressed, sensitive scalps

Options include:

• PURA D’OR Biotin Conditioner

• PURA D’OR Deep Moisturizing Conditioner

• PURA D’OR Healing Conditioner

These formulas help keep hair strong, soft, and less prone to shedding from mechanical damage.

Scalp serums are one of the most effective hair loss treatments at home, especially when used consistently.

Because thinning hair affects different groups in different ways, here’s how to adapt your plan.

Common causes:

• Hormonal changes

Best PURA D’OR Products for Women Over 40

A receding hairline is one of the hardest areas to regrow. Consistency is key.

Recommended PURA D’OR regimen:

• Castor Oil 

Although medical evaluation is needed for alopecia areata, supportive scalp care helps maintain a healthy environment.

Recommended PURA D’OR support:

• Castor Oil for targeted areas

• Pure Cold Pressed Organic Argan Oil for dryness or irritation

Create a treatment mask using:

• Argan Oil

Warm slightly and apply for 30–45 minutes before washing with your preferred PURA D’OR shampoo.

Avoid harsh sulfates, drying alcohols, and over-washing. PURA D’OR’s shampoos are sulfate-free, making them ideal for fragile hair.

Common habits that worsen hair loss include:

• Tight hairstyles

• Overuse of heat tools

• Hot showers

• Harsh chemical dyes

• Skipping conditioner (leads to breakage that mimics thinning)

Using PURA D’OR conditioners and oils helps protect hair from breakage.

Realistic timelines are as followers but individual results may vary:

• 2–4 weeks: Less shedding

• 8–12 weeks: Healthier, stronger hair

• 3–6 months: Noticeable improvements in fullness

• 6–12 months: Significant density increases

Consistency matters more than intensity. Daily or near-daily use yields the best results.

Thinning hair can be frustrating, but the right combination of treatments can make a huge difference. PURA D’OR offers a comprehensive range of natural, effective, and scalp-friendly solutions that support the entire hair growth cycle — from root to tip.

Whether you’re dealing with hormonal thinning, stress shedding, genetic loss, postpartum changes, or thinning after illness, there’s a PURA D’OR regimen that can help you restore confidence and promote thicker, healthier, more resilient hair.
