After a baby: hair shedding in Utah
Utah has one of the higher birth rates in the country: 13.3 births per 1,000 residents in 2024, the 1st-highest of the 50 states and DC, with 46,664 babies born to residents of Utah that year. Per 1,000 women aged 15 to 44 there were 59.9 births, the 6th-highest fertility rate of 51. Birth rates in its nearest states: Idaho 11.6, Nevada 9.9, Wyoming 10.4 and Colorado 10.8.[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]
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). 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 Utah: above average
Utah's 211 registered dermatology providers come to 6.3 per 100,000 people, a little above the 5.5 national rate (11th of 51). Each one serves, on average, about 15,800 people. At the national rate, Utah's 3,331,187 residents would have about 185; it has 26 more.[NPI][ACS]
The Salt Lake City-Murray area, the largest metro here, holds 43% of them. 57% practice elsewhere in Utah.[OMB][NPI]
Utah has more dermatology providers per resident than any of its four nearest states (per 100,000: Idaho 3.7, Nevada 3.2, Wyoming 3.3 and Colorado 6.2).[NPI][ACS]
States of a similar size: Iowa (120 providers, 3.8 per 100,000), Nevada (100 providers, 3.2 per 100,000) and Connecticut (283 providers, 7.9 per 100,000).[NPI][ACS]
Far from the Salt Lake City-Murray area, a dermatology office may be a longer trip; an online intake for pattern hair loss is the same from any town in Utah. 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.
Who pattern hair loss affects in Utah
Of Utah's 3,331,187 residents, 669,447 are men aged 25 to 54, 39.7% of the state's men (39.7% nationally). In its nearest states the share is Idaho 37.8%, Nevada 41.3%, Wyoming 38.0% and Colorado 43.4%.[ACS]
440,460 women are 40 to 64, 26.8% of Utah'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 Idaho 29.6%, Nevada 31.7%, Wyoming 30.5% and Colorado 31.1% 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]
