Pattern Mapping™ for women with hair loss
Your labs came back normal. Your hair didn’t get the memo.
Not unexplained. Unread.
Pattern Mapping reads which of four patterns is behind your shedding or thinning, then matches the short list of herbs and supplements that fits it.

Same normal labs. Four very different patterns.
Every lab came back clean. Every product promised the same thing, and none of them held.
Most plans hand every woman the same list. But the same normal ferritin can sit inside four very different patterns, and each one needs something different.
1
Circulation & Delivery
Cold hands, a cool or tight scalp, more shedding in winter.
2
Digestion & Absorption
Bloating after meals, iron that barely moves, tired after a full night’s sleep.
3
Hormone-Stress Signaling
Waking at 3am, wired and tired, a wave of shedding months after a hard stretch.
4
Inflammation & Reactivity
A scalp that itches or burns after washing, and shedding that comes in waves.
Read your pattern. Match the two or three things that fit it. Start them in the right order.

What changed my mind
Your labs are a clue, not a target.
In the same month, two women came to me with almost identical labs. Similar ferritin. Similar TSH. Both doing everything right.
Their hair was telling two completely different stories. One had a cold, tight scalp and a gut that wasn’t absorbing well. The other didn’t. Neither of those shows up on a blood panel.
So I stopped chasing numbers and started reading the clues around them.
Their numbers were the same. What their bodies were doing with them wasn’t.
- Your labs are a clue, not a target.Your doctor rules out real deficiency, thyroid disease and PCOS. The clues around your labs tell you where to start.
- Hair gets the surplus.The body pays for the essentials first. TCM has said for centuries that hair is the surplus of Blood.
- Matched, not maxed.Not one scoop for everyone. The two or three things that fit your pattern, and a list of what to stop.
- Your doctor is on your team.They rule out the serious stuff. Pattern Mapping works on the rest.

Who I am
I’m Gavin Larsen, a registered Traditional Chinese Medicine practitioner (R.TCM.P, Dr. TCM Dip.) in Vancouver, BC. I’ve worked with hair loss in clinic for more than ten years, across over 1,000 cases.
I built Pattern Mapping because I kept seeing the same thing. Women were doing good work that wasn’t matched to their pattern, because nobody had read it.
I’m not a medical doctor, and I don’t diagnose or prescribe. My job is the part between you and your doctor: which pattern you are, what fits it, and what to stop buying.
Less testing. Less spending. Less spiraling.
You’re just one pattern away…
Pattern Mapping is a TCM pattern assessment. It isn’t a medical diagnosis and doesn’t replace your doctor. Talk to your doctor before you change any medication or supplement.
