Causes and Treatments by Hair Loss Type
Causes and treatment approaches vary depending on the type of hair loss.
Please select the type that applies to you.
Female Hair Loss
Hair loss in women differs from that in men.
Female hair loss is primarily caused by stress, anemia, nutritional imbalances, and hormonal changes. It typically manifests as a widening of the crown area or a broadening of the hair part. If left untreated, recovery becomes increasingly difficult.
Comprehensive Approach
- · Constitutional diagnosis → Checking for blood or Qi deficiency
- · Improving blood circulation and nourishing hair roots with Gangmo-tang
- · Directly stimulating hair follicles via scalp pharmacopuncture
Highly Recommended For:
- · Hair loss following a diet
- · Those with irregular menstruation or anemia
- · Stress-induced alopecia areata
Male Hair Loss
Treatment is most effective in the early stages of receding hairlines (M-shaped pattern) and crown thinning.
Male pattern baldness is primarily caused by the miniaturization of hair follicles due to DHT (dihydrotestosterone). It is characterized by a receding hairline or thinning at the crown.
Comprehensive Approach
- · Improve scalp environment + boost blood flow to hair follicles
- · Improve constitution with Gangmotang
- · Induce hair follicle regeneration using scalp exosomes
Key Strengths
Korean medicine offers an alternative for those concerned about the side effects of hair loss medication (such as reduced sexual function).
Hair Loss After Dieting
Did you lose hair along with the weight?
Rapid weight loss leads to deficiencies in protein, iron, and zinc. Without proper nourishment reaching the hair roots, widespread telogen effluvium (resting-phase hair loss) occurs.
Comprehensive Approach
- · Constitutional diagnosis → Assess for blood deficiency and Qi deficiency
- · Gangmo-tang: Improve blood circulation and nourish hair roots
- · Scalp pharmacopuncture: Directly stimulate hair follicles
Garosero Strengths
At Gangnam Garosero Korean Medicine Clinic, we prioritize nutritional balance during weight loss programs to prevent hair loss as a side effect. If hair loss has already occurred, we facilitate recovery through a combination of Gangmotang herbal medicine and scalp care.

Postpartum Hair Loss
Hair loss after childbirth won't resolve on its own.
As levels of the hormone estrogen—which remained elevated during pregnancy—plummet after delivery, hair that did not shed during that time falls out all at once. Postpartum nutritional deficiencies and sleep deprivation make recovery even more difficult.
Garosero’s Strengths
At Gangnam Garosero Korean Medicine Clinic, we combine postpartum herbal tonics with *Gangmotang* to simultaneously stabilize hormones and nourish hair roots. We use only safe herbal ingredients, tailored to whether or not the patient is breastfeeding.
Thinking, "It will get better on its own," is a major mistake. Starting treatment within six months of childbirth significantly improves recovery rates.
Menopause-Related Hair Loss
If your hair has thinned since menopause, hormonal changes are the cause.
A drop in estrogen levels around the time of menopause reduces blood flow to the scalp and causes hair follicles to shrink. Symptoms such as hot flashes, facial flushing, and sleep disturbances often accompany this type of hair loss.
Key Strengths
We do not focus solely on hair loss. By combining constitutional improvement for menopause, the Gangmotang herbal formula, and scalp care, we often see an overall improvement in menopausal symptoms.
Early-Onset Hair Loss
Hair loss beginning in one's teens or twenties
Early-onset hair loss can occur when the scalp becomes sensitized due to psychological factors—such as stress—rather than the natural aging of hair follicles. Consequently, it is a common issue among high school seniors preparing for college entrance exams and students preparing for employment. One might assume this type of hair loss will resolve on its own over time; however, patients visiting the Gangnam branch of Garosero Korean Medicine Clinic often report that simply waiting for it to heal did not work. This concern can be resolved through concurrent treatments that restore a mind and body exhausted by stress while simultaneously strengthening the hair roots.
Garosero Strengths
The hair root treatment at Garosero Korean Medicine Clinic (Gangnam Branch) is an effective method for delaying hair loss and restoring hair by regenerating and strengthening hair roots that have shrunk or degenerated due to early-stage hair loss. Put a stop to the progression of early hair loss with our hair root treatment.
Alopecia Areata
Alopecia areata can occur when immune cells attack hair follicles due to an autoimmune condition.
Alopecia areata is prone to recurrence; if multiple patches appear simultaneously, they can gradually merge into a larger area of hair loss, so prompt treatment is advisable. Unlike other common forms of hair loss, it is classified as an autoimmune disorder, requiring personalized treatment tailored to the individual rather than a standard treatment approach.
Garosero’s Strengths
We identify the immune system signals and underlying causes that trigger attacks on the patient's own hair follicle cells, and provide appropriate treatment.
Seborrheic Hair Loss
Seborrheic hair loss refers to hair loss that develops as a result of seborrheic dermatitis on the scalp.
It typically arises from an imbalance in scalp sebum secretion. A key characteristic is that treating the inflammation allows the condition to subside, leading to a natural recovery from hair loss symptoms.
Strengths
It is recommended to treat the inflamed area quickly, as it causes severe pain, dandruff, and itching.
