Understanding Root Causes of Hair Loss
Hair loss is often a signal of deeper imbalances within your body. At Sayana Medical, we investigate multiple factors that can contribute to hair loss:
- Hormonal imbalances (thyroid, androgens, estrogen)
- Nutritional deficiencies
- Autoimmune conditions
- Inflammatory responses
- Gut health disruption
- Environmental toxin exposure
Beyond Topical Solutions
While topical treatments can help, lasting improvement in hair health requires addressing internal imbalances. Our functional medicine approach examines the complex interplay between your hormones, nutrition, immune system, and overall health.
Our Comprehensive Approach
Our multi-faceted treatment approach includes:
- Advanced hormone testing and optimization
