Who pattern hair loss affects in Delaware

Fewer of Delaware's men are in their prime working years than nationally: 179,985 men aged 25 to 54, 36.9% of 487,585, next to 39.7% for the US. In its nearest states the share is Pennsylvania 38.4%, Maryland 39.9%, the District of Columbia 50.2% and New Jersey 39.8%.[ACS]

Women 40 to 64 number 167,662 in Delaware, or 32.3% of its women against 31.5% for the US. For most women, says the American Academy of Dermatology, pattern thinning starts in midlife and becomes more common after menopause. In its nearest states, women 40 to 64 are Pennsylvania 31.8%, Maryland 32.9%, the District of Columbia 26.8% and New Jersey 33.3% of all women.[1][ACS]

Nationally, androgenetic alopecia affects an estimated 50 million men and 30 million women, and more than half of men over 50 have some hair loss. There is no state count, so this page does not estimate one.[2]

Dermatologist access in Delaware: below average

The NPI registry counts 39 dermatology providers in Delaware, 3.9 for every 100,000 residents. Nationally the figure is 5.5, so Delaware runs 30% below it (40th of 51). Each one serves, on average, about 25,800 people. At the national rate, Delaware's 1,005,872 residents would have about 56; it has 17 fewer.[NPI][ACS]

70% of those providers practice in the Philadelphia-Camden-Wilmington area, leaving 30% for everywhere else in Delaware.[OMB][NPI]

Each of Delaware's four nearest states has more dermatology providers per resident (per 100,000: Pennsylvania 6.2, Maryland 6.5, the District of Columbia 12.6 and New Jersey 5.2).[NPI][ACS]

States of a similar size: Rhode Island (88 providers, 8.0 per 100,000), Montana (59 providers, 5.3 per 100,000) and South Dakota (59 providers, 6.6 per 100,000).[NPI][ACS]

Outside the Philadelphia-Camden-Wilmington area, the nearest dermatology office may be farther from home; an online visit for pattern hair loss does not depend on distance. In-person dermatology remains the place for sudden or patchy loss and for a sore, red or scaly scalp.

These are dermatology providers registered in the NPI registry as of October 23, 2026, counted where they practice. Physician assistants, nurse practitioners and dermatopathologists are left out, some listed providers no longer see patients, and the rates divide by ACS 2019–2023 population.

After a baby: hair shedding in Delaware

In 2024, 10,550 babies were born to residents of Delaware, roughly 29 every day. The birth rate, 10.0 per 1,000 residents, was the 35th-highest (tied) of the 50 states and DC. Per 1,000 women aged 15 to 44 there were 53.7 births, the 28th-highest (tied) fertility rate of 51. Birth rates in its nearest states: Pennsylvania 9.7, Maryland 10.5, the District of Columbia 10.8 and New Jersey 10.7.[NCHS]

Many new mothers notice heavy shedding a few months after giving birth. The American Academy of Dermatology says it usually peaks about four months after birth, is temporary and is not true hair loss, and that most women see their hair return to its normal fullness by their child’s first birthday.[3]

When shedding has not settled after a year, or the part is widening, female pattern hair loss may be the cause. A physician can then consider, after breastfeeding, oral minoxidil, spironolactone or a scalp spray made without finasteride (compounded, not FDA-approved). Finasteride and spironolactone are never suggested to anyone who is pregnant, trying to conceive or breastfeeding, and minoxidil tablets should not be taken while breastfeeding.[4][5][6]
