Who pattern hair loss affects in Fayetteville

Fayetteville's median age is 28.7, below Arkansas's 38.4: a younger city than its state. There are 14,878 men 40 or older in Fayetteville (15.3% of residents; less than Arkansas's 23.0%), the ages when male pattern hair loss is most common; it affects more than half of men over 50.[1][ACS]

Fayetteville has 9,010 women aged 45 to 64, 9.3% of its people, less than Arkansas's 12.4%. For most women, pattern thinning begins in their 40s, 50s or 60s, according to the American Academy of Dermatology.[2][ACS]

Those are age counts, not counts of hair loss: the only prevalence figures are national, an estimated 50 million men and 30 million women in the US.[1]

After a baby: hair shedding near Fayetteville

Births are counted by state, not by city. Arkansas has one of the higher birth rates in the country, 11.5 per 1,000 residents in 2024 (the 12th-highest (tied) of 51), with 35,395 babies born to its residents. Fayetteville's 97,227 residents are 3.2% of Arkansas's 3,032,651.[NCHS][ACS]

Shedding after a baby (telogen effluvium) is common: it tends to peak around four months after birth and passes, and by the first birthday most women see their hair return to normal fullness, according to the American Academy of Dermatology.[3]

Thinning that has not settled after a year, or a part that keeps widening, is worth a physician's look. The safety rules come first: finasteride and spironolactone are off the table in pregnancy, when trying to conceive and while breastfeeding, and so are minoxidil tablets while breastfeeding.[4][5][6]

Dermatologists in Fayetteville: more per resident than the US

9 dermatology providers in the NPI registry give an office address in Fayetteville. Per 100,000 residents that is 9.3, above the national 5.5 and above Arkansas's 3.1. Roughly 10,800 residents share each one.[NPI][ACS]

Even counting 25 miles out, there are 16 dermatology providers for 493,236 residents, 3.2 per 100,000, below the national rate; 9 are within 10 miles.[NPI][ZCTA]

Fayetteville holds 45% of the 20 dermatology providers in the Fayetteville-Springdale-Rogers metro area; the rest practice in its other towns. Across Washington County the figure is 3.6 per 100,000: 9 providers for 251,863 residents.[NPI][OMB]

With fewer dermatology offices in Fayetteville, an online visit for pattern hair loss is one more way to be seen without a wait for a local appointment slot. In-person dermatology is still the place for sudden or patchy loss and a sore, red or scaly scalp.

About these counts: NPI registry dermatology providers (October 23, 2026), placed by the city on their practice address and, for the 10- and 25-mile circles, by the center of their ZIP code. Physician assistants, nurse practitioners and dermatopathologists are left out; a registry is not a workforce survey; residents are ACS 2019–2023.
