Reasons for Hair Loss
For centuries, men, women and even children have had to endure
the embarasment and emotional pain caused by hair loss. There
are number for reasons for hair loss. Some people experience
higher level of hair loss after illness or some weeks after
surgery. The other reasons for hair loss are chemotherapy
regimens used in cancer therapy and anticoagulants. The hair
will return to normal once the medication has been stopped.
Other reasons for hair loss include too much vitamin A and
anti-depressant therapy. The physical reasons for hair loss are
over or under-active thyroids, certain fungal infections and
hormonal imbalances. Even underlying problems such as lupus or
diabetes may result in excessive hair loss.
The common reasons for hair loss in an individual varies from
genetics, pregnancy, diet, improper hair care, cancer treatment
and illness. Male pattern baldness is noticeable among many men,
which is marked by thinning hair near the forehead and at the
crown. If it has not stopped by using suitable medications, it
can eventually remove all the hair on opt of the head. Hair loss
can be inherited from their mother, their father, or from both
parents.
The other essential reasons for hair loss are as follows: - ·
Toxic substances · Severe radiation · Illness and infectious
diseases · Heredity factors · Ageing · Hormonal Imbalance ·
Injury and impairment · Nervous disorders
Pregnant women may notice hair loss problems within a period of
about 3 months after delivery. This is also attributed as a
reason for hair loss. During pregnancy, high levels of
particular hormones cause the body to keep hair that would
normally fall out. When
the hormones return to pre-pregnancy
levels, that hair falls out and the normal growth and loss cycle
starts again.
Improper hair care can also be one of the causes for hair loss.
Excessive combing or brushing, hair styles such a ponytails or
braids, which pulls at the hair, and last but not least the over
usage of chemicals such as bleaches and dyes. Although these are
the reasons for hair loss due to improper hair maintenance,
physiological imbalances such excess production of
Dihydrotestosterone (DHT).
An excessive level of DHT influeces the growth cycle of a hair
by preventing the availability of the nutrients to the hair
thereby causing excessive hair falling.
Deficiency in Protein and Iron is found to be the major reasons
for hair loss. The hair falling is noticed extensively only
after the body recognizes the deficiency. This happens after
about three months of deficiency. This can easily be achieved by
the dietary inclusion of proteins and Iron.
Medications prescribed for blood pressure, arthritis,
depression, and birth control pills are also among the reasons
of hair loss. Stopping the medicine and select another type of
medicine and contraceptive is the best way to treat this
condition.
