Understanding Thyroid Hair Loss
Most people who are suffering from hair loss should make sure
that they are not suffering from thyroid hair loss. Whenever
your body requires extra energy, which might be due to stress or
other illness, the hair cells get shut down automatically to
redirect the energy elsewhere. The common condition where hair
loss can occur are poor diet and nutritional deficiencies,
hormonal changes, surgery, and many medications, but noticeably,
thyroid hair loss.
Before starting the treatment plan for your thyroid hair loss,
the following key points should be taken into consideration such
as evaluation by a dermatologist, to find out if there is are
nutritional deficiencies, making sure that it may not be of the
side effect of the thyroid drug, adherent to alternative
therapies and last but not least rule out the possibility of
thyroid rug side effect.
Although there are three types of hair loss such as thyroid hair
loss, autoimmune alopecia, and male pattern hair loss. Thyroid
hair loss can occur both in hyperthyroidism and hypothyroidism.
When suffering from thyroid hair loss, you'll often find more
hair in the shower, in drains and in hairbrushes with absence of
specific hair less patches. Thyroid hair loss is noticeable
among some people even after starting the treatment especially
in Synthroid medication.
Synthroid is useful in hypothyroidism but it produces thyroid
hair loss as its side effect for some people and this is not
known by some of the medical professionals also. So make sure
that hair falling is not due to Synthroid.
Thyroid hair loss can also occur if your condition is under
treated. TSH of around
1-2 is optimal for a large number of
people who are suffering from hypothyroidism with no hair
falling.
Alternative therapy such as evening primrose oil is found to be
highly useful in correcting thyroid hair loss. Aromatherapy is
also found to be extremely effective. Essential oils of thyme,
cedar wood oil, lavender, and rosemary mixed altogether and
applied on the hair will help to stimulate hair growth.
The thyroid hair loss can also be corrected by using Ayurveda
medicines such as Bhingaraj oil or brahmi oil. Both oils should
be applied to the scalp without disruption for at least 3 months
for hair growth stimulation. In addition to this the ayurvedic
herbs amla and ashwagandha will also help stimulating hair
growth.
The final treatment for thyroid hair loss is hair
transplantation if there is serious illness. Small plugs of hair
are removed from the back or side of the scalp and implanted to
areas of the scalp with little or no hair. The effect can be
seen after several months. Tissue expansion is another procedure
that helps to treat thyroid hair loss. In this type, a small
empty sac is slot into the skin. The sac is filled up with
saline water for a course of time. Automatically, the skin
begins to rejuvenate to give bulging appearance. This new skin
with hair follicles is placed over the adjacent bald patches.
