Menopause Hair Thinning: Why It Happens and How to Restore Strength with Botavive Glow

Introduction

If you’ve noticed more hair in the brush or a scalp that feels dry and tight since menopause, you’re not alone. Nearly 50 percent of women experience visible hair thinning or texture change during perimenopause and menopause. The reason lies in shifting hormones - especially estrogen - which once protected your scalp and nourished each hair follicle.

Why Menopause Changes Your Hair and Scalp

Estrogen supports circulation, sebum (natural oil) production, and the thickness of each strand. As levels drop, scalp oils decline, hair becomes drier, and growth slows. Testosterone and other androgens may also become relatively dominant, shrinking follicles over time.

Low estrogen + higher androgen activity = thinner, weaker, duller hair.

Add stress, nutritional gaps, and poor sleep -common in midlife -and hair struggles to recover its natural growth rhythm.

What Science Says About Supporting Hair After 50

Clinical research confirms three key areas drive menopausal hair loss:

  • Hormonal decline reducing follicle activity.
  • Nutrient deficiencies (vitamin D, biotin, zinc, and silica).
  • Inflammation and oxidative stress around the scalp.

Addressing all three factors -not just one - is what delivers visible change.

The Glow Approach: Nutrition That Targets Hair at the Root

Botavive Glow was created to support women through this hormonal transition. Each capsule delivers nutrients shown to improve follicle strength, scalp hydration, and collagen synthesis.

Inside Glow:

  • Biotin & Vitamin E to promote keratin production and protect against breakage.
  • Horsetail Extract (Silica-rich) to improve elasticity and stimulate new growth.
  • Hydrolyzed Collagen to rebuild structure within the hair shaft.
  • Vitamin C & Zinc to enhance collagen absorption and strengthen scalp tissue.
  • MSM & Hyaluronic Acid to improve scalp moisture and reduce brittleness.

Every ingredient works in synergy to bring shine back without hormonal intervention.

Real Women, Real Results

Women who add Glow to their daily routine report:

  • Less shedding within 6 weeks.
  • Softer texture and stronger nails.
  • A more hydrated scalp and smoother skin.

These results mirror the nutrient pathways identified in dermatology research - feeding follicles from the inside rather than masking dryness on the surface.

Lifestyle Tips to Boost Results

  • Increase protein. Hair is mostly keratin; aim for 1 gram per kg of body weight daily.
  • Avoid harsh colorants and heat. Post-menopausal hair is more porous and fragile.
  • Check vitamin D levels. Low levels correlate with telogen effluvium (hair shedding).
  • Massage the scalp daily. Stimulates blood flow to dormant follicles.

Why Glow Outperforms Typical Hair Vitamins

Most hair supplements focus on surface nutrition. Glow addresses the root causes of menopausal hair loss - hormonal decline, inflammation, and nutrient depletion - by combining antioxidants, collagen builders, and scalp hydrators in one daily formula.

Backed by functional nutrition and manufactured in FDA-registered facilities, Botavive Glow is non-GMO, and third-party tested for purity.
