Kansas by age: the years hair loss is common

Fewer of Kansas's men are in their prime working years than nationally: 552,220 men aged 25 to 54, 37.5% of 1,473,655, next to 39.7% for the US. In its nearest states the share is Missouri 38.1%, Nebraska 37.8%, Oklahoma 38.6% and Arkansas 37.9%.[ACS]

434,226 women are 40 to 64, 29.7% of Kansas's women and below the national 31.5%: the midlife years when, the American Academy of Dermatology says, female pattern hair loss usually begins. In its nearest states, women 40 to 64 are Missouri 31.0%, Nebraska 29.3%, Oklahoma 29.7% and Arkansas 30.6% 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 Kansas: below average

Kansas has fewer dermatology providers per resident than the country as a whole: 119 in the NPI registry, or 4.1 per 100,000 residents, 27% under the national 5.5. It ranks 36th of the 50 states and DC. That works out to one dermatology provider for about 24,700 residents. Matching the national rate would take about 163 providers for 2,937,569 residents, 44 more than Kansas has.[NPI][ACS]

About 65% practice in the Kansas City area, the largest metro; the other 35% are spread across the rest of Kansas.[OMB][NPI]

Two of Kansas's four nearest states have more dermatology providers per resident (per 100,000: Missouri 5.2, Nebraska 4.3, Oklahoma 3.7 and Arkansas 3.1).[NPI][ACS]

Against the three states closest to it in population (Mississippi: 2,951,438 residents, 3.5 per 100,000; Arkansas: 3,032,651 residents, 3.1 per 100,000; Nevada: 3,141,000 residents, 3.2 per 100,000), Kansas has the most providers per resident.[NPI][ACS]

Outside the Kansas City area, the nearest dermatology office may be farther from home; an online visit for pattern hair loss does not depend on distance. Hair that falls out suddenly or in patches, or a scalp that is sore, red or scaly, is best seen by a dermatologist in person.

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.

Hair shedding after pregnancy in Kansas

Kansas recorded 33,984 births to residents in 2024 (final NCHS data), a birth rate of 11.4 per 1,000 residents. The fertility rate was 58.3 births per 1,000 women aged 15 to 44, the 14th-highest of 51. Birth rates in its nearest states: Missouri 10.9, Nebraska 12.4, Oklahoma 11.7 and Arkansas 11.5.[NCHS]

Shedding after a baby is common. Dermatologists call it telogen effluvium: it tends to peak around four months after birth and is temporary, and for most women hair is back to its usual fullness by the child’s first birthday, according to the American Academy of Dermatology.[3]

Two rules come first: no finasteride or spironolactone for anyone pregnant, trying to conceive or breastfeeding, and no minoxidil tablets while breastfeeding. If thinning lasts past the baby’s first year, or your part keeps widening, a physician can check for female pattern hair loss. Once you are no longer breastfeeding, a physician may consider oral minoxidil, spironolactone, or a prescription scalp spray made without finasteride (compounded, not FDA-approved).[4][5][6]
