POWER (RE)PLAY - Episode 13 - Hair Loss, Hormones & Hope with Dr. Renée A. Beach (originally aired March 28, 2024)

In this episode of Aging Powerfully, Melissa digs into one of the most emotional (and common!) midlife topics: hair loss, with medical and cosmetic dermatologist, Dr. Renée A. Beach (@dermabeach). From thinning at the crown to shedding in the shower, we talk about why it happens, what’s normal, and when to investigate further.

We cover:

  • How perimenopause, menopause, stress, and genetics impact hair
  • The difference between “normal shedding” and true hair loss
  • Medical causes to rule out (like thyroid issues, iron levels, and hormones)
  • Evidence-based treatments vs. overhyped “miracle” cures
  • Practical strategies to protect hair health from the inside out
  • The emotional toll of hair loss and how to protect your confidence and identity

If you’ve ever felt panicked by the hair in your brush or avoided looking at your part in photos, this episode will give you clarity, options, and a lot of compassion.
