Disappearing eyebrows!

[maslinpan]

I might well be perimenopausal, I am 50 and have experienced one episode of night sweats so definitely in the zone. Is there any link between menopause and eyebrows dramatically thinning? Can I do anything about it, or just shrug it off as a minor symptom? I had lovely eyebrows and I miss them!

There definitely is a link.....mine have buggered off too.

Bloody hell... That's what I feared.

I have them, but they are grey, I use some eyeshadow to put them where they should be.

Mine are the same, no arm or leg hair either! I use Rapidbrow on my brows which has definitely helped with growth and colour but you have to keep using it or they disappear again.

Rapidbrow. It works.

Yep mine are now shite. And no hair on lower legs (below calf) or the back of my hands...werewolf in reverse?!

Castor oil is brilliant - mine are twice the thickness that they were before. It has also restored my disappearing eyelashes! You have to be patient, but it does work, and it’s a lot cheaper and more natural than rapidbrow.

My eyebrows have almost disappeared too! I find that using eyebrow dye every few weeks helps to emphasise what's left, as most of the hairs are fine and very fair, so almost invisible.

If I need to add extra emphasis I use a soft, thick eyebrow pencil, or even brown eyeshadow!

Me too! Wasn't aware this happened Considered microblading - read about it - nope!
Going to look up Rapidbrow

Buy Rapidbrow off Amazon- much cheaper than shops.

Have you had your thyroid levels checked. Thyroid issues is another reason eyebrows fuck off.

MN seems obsessed with thyroids a lot of the time :)

Eyebrows usually thin in midlife or older (except men's grow more.)

Body hair can get sparse in meno- pubes , underarm hair, and leg hair.

HRT stops this by adding estrogen.

Bushier eyebrows for me - to match the beard!

Benefit Gimme Brow is your friend

Mine have almost disappeared too. I look like an alien if I don't use pencil and powder. Rest of my body hair unchanged 🙄

Yes. The eyebrow hairs fall out and embed themselves in your chin.
