Some postmenopausal women with frontal fibrosing alopecia stopped losing hair with finasteride treatment, hinting at a possible hormonal cause.

Trichoscopy is a useful tool for diagnosing different hair and scalp diseases by their unique visual features.

The conclusion is that accurate diagnosis of different types of hair loss requires good teamwork between skin doctors and lab experts.

Mostly postmenopausal Caucasian women get Frontal Fibrosing Alopecia, which often includes eyebrow loss and has limited treatment success.

FFA is more common in postmenopausal women, can affect younger women, and may stabilize over time.
