Fredericksburg draws dermatology care from well beyond its limits: 8 dermatology providers practice here, 28.2 per 100,000 residents, 5.1 times the US 5.5 and above Virginia's 5.5. That is one for about 3,500 residents.[NPI][ACS]

Fredericksburg is one part of the Washington-Arlington-Alexandria area, where 424 dermatology providers practice; 2% of them are in the city.[NPI][OMB]

Where local dermatology offices are fewer, as in Fredericksburg, an online intake for pattern hair loss works the same from any address. See a dermatologist in person for hair that falls out suddenly or in patches, or a scalp that is sore, red or scaly.

The NPI registry (October 23, 2026) lists where each dermatology provider practices. A provider counts in the city when the practice address names it, and within 10 or 25 miles by the center of the practice ZIP code. Not counted: physician assistants, nurse practitioners, dermatopathologists. Rates divide by ACS 2019–2023 residents.

Nobody counts pattern hair loss city by city. Across the US it affects an estimated 50 million men and 30 million women, so this page gives ages, not an estimate.[1]

After a baby: hair shedding near Fredericksburg

Virginia recorded 94,054 births to its residents in 2024 (final NCHS data), 10.7 per 1,000 residents, the 23rd-highest (tied) of 51. Fredericksburg holds 0.3% of the state's 8,657,499 people.[NCHS][ACS]

Many new mothers notice clumps of hair coming out a few months after delivery. Dermatologists say it peaks about four months after birth and is temporary, with fullness usually back by the baby’s first birthday.[3]

No finasteride or spironolactone for anyone pregnant, trying to conceive or breastfeeding, and no minoxidil tablets while breastfeeding. After that, thinning that lasts past a year may be female pattern hair loss, which a physician can assess online.[4][5][6]
