Hair Loss Programme Australia

Hair loss is a concern that affects thousands of Australians, both men and women. Whether you’re noticing extra hair in the shower drain or your hairline feels like it’s slowly shifting, you’re not alone. Hair loss can impact your confidence, emotional well-being, and overall quality of life.

Prime Medic offers confidential, 100% online GP consultations for people seeking professional advice about hair thinning, shedding, or scalp concerns without the awkward waiting room or the need for in-person appointments.

Hair loss, also called alopecia, can show up in many ways: gradual thinning, sudden patches, or excessive shedding. It’s not always easy to spot early, and the reasons behind it vary widely.

Some common contributing factors include

  • Genetics: Hair loss can run in families and show up as pattern baldness in both men and women.
  • Hormonal shifts: This includes postpartum hair shedding, menopause, or hormone imbalances.
  • Stress or illness: Major life stressors or physical health issues can disrupt your hair growth cycle.
  • Nutritional gaps: Low levels of iron, vitamin D, or protein may impact scalp and follicle health.
  • Poor hair habits: Over-styling, frequent heat use, or harsh chemicals can damage hair over time.

Every person’s hair loss journey is different. That’s why speaking with a doctor can help uncover what’s contributing to your specific symptoms.

Hair loss isn’t always dramatic. It can sneak up gradually or happen all at once. Here’s what to watch for:

  • Thinning near the crown or hairline
  • Widening the part in women
  • Noticeable shedding during brushing or washing
  • Patches of missing hair
  • Sudden changes in hair texture or density

It’s important not to panic but also not to ignore these signs. A doctor can help assess what’s normal, what’s not, and whether it’s worth investigating further.

Hair concerns aren’t limited to age or gender. Some common groups include

  • Men in their 20s to 40s are noticing early signs of pattern thinning
  • Women after childbirth or during hormonal changes
  • Older adults as part of the natural ageing process
  • Young people dealing with stress-related shedding or scalp issues

If you’re unsure whether your symptoms are worth exploring, an online consultation is a low-stress way to find clarity.

Hair Loss in Women: What to Know

While most people associate baldness with men, women often face a different kind of challenge: diffuse thinning across the scalp or widening of the part. Hormonal shifts (like pregnancy or menopause), stress, thyroid issues, or iron deficiency can all play a role.

You may notice:

  • Hair feels thinner in ponytails
  • More hair on the pillow or brush
  • Slow regrowth after shedding
  • Hair not “bouncing back” after illness or stress

Prime Medic’s GPs can assess these symptoms and offer guidance on what next steps are available, from blood tests to specialist referrals.

Hair Loss in Men: Know the Signs

Male pattern hair loss often begins with a receding hairline or thinning on the crown. Over time, this can form a “U” shape around the sides and back of the head. The earlier you catch it, the more options you may have to manage or slow the process through lifestyle or medical advice.

Our doctors can help:

  • Identify the pattern and stage of hair loss.
  • Explore underlying health triggers.
  • Discuss general scalp health and nutrition.
  • Refer you to dermatology if further testing is needed.

That depends on the cause. In some cases, hair may regrow once the underlying issue, like stress, poor diet, or an illness, is addressed. In other cases, it may not fully reverse but can be managed or slowed with consistent care and healthy routines.

Prime Medic focuses on:

  • Identifying contributing lifestyle or health factors
  • Supporting long-term scalp and hair health
  • Guiding you to the next steps if specialist care is required

Here’s how our process works:

  1. Book online anytime: Choose a convenient time for your video consult; no referrals or in-person appointments are needed.
  2. Please speak with a registered doctor. Our AHPRA-registered GPs will listen to your concerns, ask relevant health and lifestyle questions, and help determine next steps.
  3. Confidential and private: No awkward in-clinic visits. All from your home, car, or wherever suits you.
  4. Guidance you can trust: If needed, we’ll refer you to specialists, suggest general health tests, or provide advice on scalp care and diet.

Tips to Support Healthy Hair Naturally

While not all hair loss can be prevented, simple daily habits can make a big difference:

  • Eat a balanced diet with plenty of iron, protein, and vitamin D
  • Avoid tight hairstyles that pull on the scalp
  • Reduce stress through sleep, exercise, and mindfulness
  • Use gentle hair products without harsh chemicals
  • Stay hydrated and limit heat-styling tools
  • 100% online consultations, no waiting rooms or commutes
  • AHPRA-registered doctors who take time to listen
  • Easy booking across all of Australia
  • Confidential, respectful, judgement-free support
  • Supportive care that aligns with Australian medical standards

Hair Loss Isn’t Just Cosmetic, It’s Emotional Too

Losing hair can affect more than just your appearance. It may also impact your confidence, mood, and how you feel in everyday life. That’s why Prime Medic takes a whole-person approach to your care, listening to the physical and emotional impacts and supporting you with compassion.

Frequently Asked Questions

Some common questions asked by you

Genetics, age, hormonal shifts, stress, nutritional deficiencies, and certain medical conditions can influence hair loss. Identifying the underlying cause is an important step in managing it effectively.
Yes. While the patterns may differ, both men and women can experience gradual hair thinning over time. It’s more common with age and can vary based on lifestyle and hormonal changes.
A telehealth consultation with a qualified doctor can help explore the likely causes through a review of your health history, scalp condition, lifestyle habits, and possible contributing factors.
Not always. In some cases, hair loss may be temporary, often linked to stress, dietary changes, or hormonal fluctuations. Identifying and managing the cause early may support healthier outcomes.
It’s a private, online appointment with a registered Australian doctor. You’ll share details about your symptoms, concerns, and lifestyle. Your doctor will assess your situation and discuss appropriate next steps based on clinical judgement.
Yes. Depending on the cause and extent of the issue, your doctor may offer general advice around hair care routines or scalp health or refer you for further assessment if needed.
Absolutely. Chronic stress may disrupt the hair growth cycle, leading to more shedding or thinning over time. Learning to manage stress can benefit both your scalp and overall well-being.
Yes. Many women experience temporary shedding after childbirth. It’s typically due to hormonal changes and usually improves within a few months. If shedding continues, a consult can help explore supportive options.
Eating a balanced diet, getting enough sleep, managing stress, staying hydrated, avoiding harsh hair products, and being gentle with styling can all support hair and scalp health.
In some cases, yes. Hair thinning or loss may be a signal of an underlying condition such as iron deficiency, thyroid imbalance, or autoimmune concerns. A medical consultation can help determine whether further tests are needed.
While some non-prescription options may offer support, it’s always safest to consult a qualified doctor before starting anything new, especially if the hair loss is significant, sudden, or persistent.
Prime Medic offers secure, doctor-led assessments without the need to visit a clinic. Our team of Australian-registered doctors provides individualised care and can guide you through your options, from lifestyle guidance to referrals for in-person follow-up if required.
