How does hair loss occur? Is it more of a health issue than a cosmetic issue?

Hair loss is a beauty problem that affects both men and women. It is important to recognize whether hair loss is a health problem rather than a cosmetic problem. Therefore, the causes of hair fall should be clearly identified

Everyone alternates between oils and shampoo when hair fall is severe, but no one is ready to see a dermatologist or doctor considering it as a medical problem

Normally, women lose up to 100 hairs a day. There is nothing particularly bad about shedding so much hair,  but if it is more than 100 you should be careful

This is the hair growth pattern of a person without any health problems:-

Hair grows for about 2 - 6 years. Hair usually grows half an inch a month. 90% of hair is in the growth phase. The remaining 10% hair growth is stunted. This hair does not grow for two to three months and falls out. Next hair starts to grow in that position

Hair dye bleach shampoos all contain a lot of chemicals. Directly or indirectly, all these things degrade the health of the hair.  Chemicals used to straighten hair are also harmful. This can lead to inflammation in the hair follicles

A hereditary problem :- Hair growth and hair loss are all related to the factor of heredity. It mostly affects men. Hair loss in men is caused by changes in the male hormone testosterone, but women's bodies also have this hormone in small amounts

Hormonal changes:- Hormonal changes are the main cause of hair loss in women. Pregnancy, menopause, and hysterectomy are all factors that cause changes in the hormone levels in a woman's body. These are the causes of reduced hair growth. Thyroid and lack of iron in the body causes hair loss

Diseases and surgery can cause hair loss:- Some diseases and surgery cause hair loss. Hair growth stops due to thyroid diseases and anemia

Nutritious food is essential for hair:-  A nutritious diet is essential for healthy hair. Foods that contain protein, vitamins, and minerals are needed for hair growth

Medicines cause hair loss:- The biggest evidence that drugs can cause hair loss is chemotherapy given to cancer patients. Medicines taken for high blood pressure also cause hair loss. Even if the amount of vitamin A in the body increases, the thickness of the hair will decrease

Aging can slow down hair growth:- Hair growth also slows down with age. It is natural, but aging does not affect the hair if it receives proper care and nutrients

Hair falls due to many reasons. Its cause must be found and treated. If dandruff is the cause of hair loss, see a dermatologist to find ways to get rid of dandruff. Hair loss can be prevented if the cause is identified and treated early. Some people lose their hair completely as part of the treatment

Hair loss is a beauty problem that affects both men and women. That is, excessive use of chemicals, hereditary problems, hormonal changes, disease, surgeries, malnutrition, medication, aging, etc. affect hair growth. But if the clear cause of hair growth is known and treated, it can be avoided to some extent
