What is wrong with my hair when I have my period?

Have you ever noticed that your hair looks or feels different during your period? That’s because of hormone fluctuations! These can affect the condition of your hair.

Just before your ovulation, your hair is at its best: shiny and full of volume, thanks to the hormone estrogen. This keeps your hair healthy. But during your period, estrogen and progesterone levels drop. This can cause your scalp to become oilier and you may even lose some more hair.

What’s up with my hair: 3 Myths and facts about hair and menstruation

There are numerous myths about what you can and cannot do with your hair during your period. Here are some common misconceptions and the truth behind them:

  1. “It’s best not to dye your hair during your period.”
    • Myth! Although hormonal fluctuations can affect the sensitivity of your scalp, there is no scientific evidence that your hair dye does not pick up as well during your period.
  2. “Your hair grows slower during your period.”
    • Partially true. Hormonal changes can affect the hair growth cycle, but the differences are minimal.
  3. “Hair loss is worse during menstruation.”
    • Where. The decrease in estrogen and progesterone can increase hair loss. This is usually temporary, but if you are concerned, try to reduce stress and eat a balanced diet to support your hair and overall health.

Each phase of your menstrual cycle has its own challenges for your hair. By being aware of these changes and giving your hair the proper care, you can ensure that it always looks its best.
