Hair Loss, Menopause, and the Toxins Hiding in Your Bathroom

from Chat with Dr. Kat · host Dr. Kat Derrig-Palumbo

Hair loss is one of those things that can quietly reshape how a woman sees herself — and most of the advice out there stops at "take biotin" or "try rosemary oil." But what if the real problem isn't your hair at all? Dr. Kat sits down with Diana Robinson, a hairstylist of 25 years turned hair loss consultant, to talk about what's actually behind the thinning — and most of it has nothing to do with your hair.They get into the everyday toxins hiding in your products, why your lab results might not be telling the full story, how cortisol and menopause create a perfect storm for hair loss, and a genetic issue affecting 44% of the population that most doctors never test for. Diana breaks down her scalp-as-soil approach, challenges the viral rosemary oil study, and explains why the supplement you're taking could be skewing your bloodwork. If you've ever stared at hair in the drain and wondered what's really going on, this one's for you.I want to hear from you!  To submit show ideas or be considered as a guest, visit https://chatwithdrkat.com/contact/Follow Chat with Dr. Kat:Facebook:  https://www.facebook.com/chatwithdrkatInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/chatwithdrkatYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@chatwithdrkatTikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@chatwithdrkatX:  https://x.com/ChatwithDrKatHealth & Wellness Programs:https://mindbodyseries.com/
