Hair Changes During Menopause: a Pharmacist-Led Approach

THE QUIET SIGNS no one warned you about.

40% of women lose noticeable density through perimenopause. Most don’t get a warning, just a photo that looks wrong and a part that keeps moving.

MENOPAUSE DOESN’T cause HAIR LOSS. IT uncovers IT.

When oestrogen drops, androgens (including DHT) get loud. DHT shrinks follicles and shortens growth cycles. DENSE targets this with clinically-supported botanicals.

FOURTEEN ACTIVES dosed by women WHO’D HAD ENOUGH OF GUESSWORK.

NO. 01 · KERATIN SYNTHESIS

BIOTIN

The building block of keratin. Deficiency is common in perimenopause and linked to thinning.

NO. 02 · OXYGEN TO FOLLICLE

IRON BISGLYCINATE

Low ferritin is the #1 under-diagnosed cause of female hair loss after 40. Our chelated form absorbs cleanly.

ZINC

Supports follicle repair and helps modulate DHT — which rises in ratio as oestrogen falls.

SAW PALMETTO

Nature’s finasteride. Inhibits the enzyme that converts testosterone into follicle-shrinking DHT — without hormones.

PUMPKIN SEED

Clinical trials show 40% increase in hair count over 24 weeks vs placebo. Works synergistically with saw palmetto.

NO. 06 · OESTROGEN MODULATOR

RESVERATROL

A phyto-oestrogen that binds oestrogen receptors in the follicle — helping restore what menopause takes.

Plus: Vitamin D3, Vitamin B-Complex, Vitamin C, Selenium, L-Cysteine, MSM, Silica, Bamboo Silica.

BUILT BY clinicians — NOT MARKETERS.

DENSE was built by Dr. Shazli and Dr. Khan — two practising NHS doctors with decades of combined trichology and GP experience. Every formula is signed off by clinicians, made in UK GMP-certified labs, and tested on real menopausal women.

Questions we get asked

Is it safe with HRT?

Yes. DENSE contains no synthetic hormones and is designed to be taken alongside HRT. We recommend letting your GP know about any supplement you are on, as standard practice.

How long until I see results?

Most women notice less shedding within 3 to 4 weeks. Visible density changes typically appear at 8 to 12 weeks. Peak results around 6 months. Hair grows slowly, which is why we offer a 60-day guarantee.

What makes it different from high-street biotin?

Two things: dosing and formulation. High-street biotin pills often contain only biotin at under-clinical doses. DENSE contains 14 actives, including the iron many women in menopause are deficient in.

Can I take it if I am postmenopausal?

Yes, and many of our customers are. The nutrient needs of the follicle do not disappear after menopause; in some ways they increase. The formula is designed for perimenopause, menopause, and post-menopause.

Is it vegan? Any allergens?

Yes, vegan and free from dairy, gluten, and nuts. Manufactured in a UK GMP-certified facility. Full ingredient disclosure on the label, no proprietary blends.
