Overview
Hair loss can affect men and women and may have several causes. Different patterns can look similar, so a thorough history and scalp assessment are important before discussing management options.
Your doctor will review the pattern and timing of hair loss, family history, scalp symptoms, medical conditions, medicines and relevant factors such as recent illness, stress, pregnancy, nutrition or hormonal changes.
Where clinically appropriate, your doctor may recommend further investigations or referral. Management is then tailored to the likely cause, your health and your preferences.
Every management plan is based on an individual assessment and guided by current clinical evidence.
- You have noticed a receding hairline or thinning at the crown.
- Your part appears wider, or your overall hair volume has reduced.
- Hair shedding has increased or accelerated.
- You have sudden, patchy, or unexplained hair loss.
- You have scalp symptoms such as redness, scale, itching or discomfort.
- You want a considered assessment before choosing a treatment pathway.

Frequently Asked Questions
Answers to common questions about hair-loss assessment and management at Elyséa HEALTH.
How soon should I seek assessment?
Arrange an assessment if hair loss is sudden, patchy, rapidly progressing, or accompanied by scalp pain, inflammation, or scarring. You can also book if gradual thinning is concerning you.
Do you assess hair loss in women?
Yes. Assessment may consider female pattern hair loss and contributors such as postpartum changes, menopause, polycystic ovary syndrome, thyroid conditions, nutrition, illness, or medicines.
How long before I see a change?
Hair growth occurs gradually, and timeframes vary with the cause and management plan. Your doctor will discuss what can realistically be monitored and when to review progress.
Will I need blood tests?
Blood tests are not required for everyone. They may be recommended when the history or examination suggests a nutritional, hormonal or other medical contributor.
