Madison, a center for dermatology care

The NPI registry lists 68 dermatology providers with an office in Madison, 24.7 for every 100,000 residents: 4.4 times the national rate of 5.5 and above Wisconsin's 6.0. Each serves, on average, about 4,100 people who live in the city.[NPI][ACS]

Within 25 miles of Madison there are 72 dermatology providers for 639,692 residents (11.3 per 100,000), a dense supply; 71 are in the city or within 10 miles.[NPI][ZCTA]

Madison anchors dermatology care in the Madison metro area: 91% of the area's 75 providers practice in the city. Across Dane County the figure is 12.7 per 100,000: 72 providers for 564,777 residents.[NPI][OMB]

An online intake for pattern hair loss works the same from any neighborhood of Madison. Sudden or patchy hair loss, or a sore, red or scaly scalp, is for a dermatologist in person.

Dermatology providers registered in the NPI registry as of October 23, 2026, by practice address: in the city means the address names the city; the 10- and 25-mile counts add every provider whose ZIP code center lies that close. Dermatopathologists, physician assistants and nurse practitioners are not counted, and the rates use ACS 2019–2023 population.

Men and women in Madison at the ages hair thins

Madison's median age is 31.8, below Wisconsin's 40.1: a younger city than its state. Men 40 and older number 50,697, or 18.4% of the city, less than Wisconsin's 24.5%. By their 50s, more than half of men show some pattern hair loss.[1][ACS]

Women aged 45 to 64 number 26,253 in Madison (9.5% of residents; less than Wisconsin's 12.9%). The American Academy of Dermatology says female pattern thinning usually starts in midlife and is more common after menopause.[2][ACS]

Those are age counts, not counts of hair loss: the only prevalence figures are national, an estimated 50 million men and 30 million women in the US.[1]

Postpartum shedding, Madison and Wisconsin

In 2024, 59,686 babies were born to residents of Wisconsin, roughly 163 a day, a birth rate of 10.0 per 1,000 residents. Madison holds 4.7% of the state's 5,892,023 people.[NCHS][ACS]

Shedding after a baby (telogen effluvium) is common: it tends to peak around four months after birth and passes, and by the first birthday most women see their hair return to normal fullness, according to the American Academy of Dermatology.[3]

Thinning that has not settled after a year, or a part that keeps widening, is worth a physician's look. The safety rules come first: finasteride and spironolactone are off the table in pregnancy, when trying to conceive and while breastfeeding, and so are minoxidil tablets while breastfeeding.[4][5][6]
