After a baby: hair shedding in Nebraska

Nebraska has one of the higher birth rates in the country: 12.4 births per 1,000 residents in 2024, the 3rd-highest (tied) of the 50 states and DC, with 24,785 babies born to residents of Nebraska that year. Per 1,000 women aged 15 to 44 there were 62.9 births, the 2nd-highest fertility rate of 51. Birth rates in its nearest states: Kansas 11.4, Iowa 11.2, South Dakota 12.4 and Missouri 10.9.[NCHS]

The American Academy of Dermatology describes shedding after childbirth (telogen effluvium) as normal and temporary. It usually peaks about four months after giving birth, and most women see their hair return to its normal fullness by their child’s first birthday.[1]

Thinning that outlasts the baby’s first year, or a part that keeps getting wider, is worth a physician’s look for female pattern hair loss. After breastfeeding ends, the options a physician may weigh are oral minoxidil, spironolactone, or a scalp spray mixed 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.[2][3][4]

Dermatologist access in Nebraska: below average

The NPI registry counts 84 dermatology providers in Nebraska, 4.3 for every 100,000 residents. Nationally the figure is 5.5, so Nebraska runs 23% below it (34th of 51). That works out to one dermatology provider for about 23,400 residents. At the national rate, Nebraska's 1,965,926 residents would have about 109; it has 25 fewer.[NPI][ACS]

The Omaha area, the largest metro here, holds 64% of them. 36% practice elsewhere in Nebraska.[OMB][NPI]

Two of Nebraska's four nearest states have more dermatology providers per resident (per 100,000: Kansas 4.1, Iowa 3.8, South Dakota 6.6 and Missouri 5.2).[NPI][ACS]

States of a similar size: Idaho (70 providers, 3.7 per 100,000), New Mexico (66 providers, 3.1 per 100,000) and West Virginia (57 providers, 3.2 per 100,000).[NPI][ACS]

Outside the Omaha 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.

Who pattern hair loss affects in Nebraska

Fewer of Nebraska's men are in their prime working years than nationally: 373,088 men aged 25 to 54, 37.8% of 987,506, next to 39.7% for the US. In its nearest states the share is Kansas 37.5%, Iowa 37.2%, South Dakota 36.7% and Missouri 38.1%.[ACS]

286,790 women are 40 to 64, 29.3% of Nebraska'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 Kansas 29.7%, Iowa 30.0%, South Dakota 29.3% and Missouri 31.0% of all women.[5][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.[6]
