Hair loss problems
There are many reasons for scalp hair loss, and it is not different in men and women. Studies indicate that the loss of up to 100-150 hair a day is normal. Human hair grows normally in three stages: growth, regression, and hair loss. Growth is an active stage or growth. The period of regression is a relatively short phase of the natural hair cycle during which the hair begins to break. Hair loss is the resting stage. The hairs that are shed daily are often in the resting or late stage of the hair cycle. Typically, about 10% of the scalp hair is at rest or hair loss at any time. These hairs do not grow and are ready to shed periodically.
In general, most hair loss is not associated with systemic or internal diseases, nor is malnutrition a frequent factor. Often, thin hair may simply result from predetermined genetic factors, family history, and aging process in general. Many men and women have noticed a mild, often physiological, physiological thinning of hair from the 1930s and 1940s. At other times, natural life variations including severe temporary stress, dietary changes, and hormonal changes such as those in pregnancy, puberty, and menopause may cause reversible hair loss.
Many health conditions, including thyroid diseases and iron deficiency anemia, cause hair loss. While blood tests of thyroid and other laboratory tests, including full blood count (CBC), on people who have normal hair loss are usually normal, it is important to rule out the underlying causes of sudden or severe hair loss. If you are concerned about some other basic health issues, you may start by seeing your family doctor, psychologist, or women for a basic health check. Dermatologists and dentists specializing in skin, hair, and nail problems may provide further advanced diagnosis and treatment of hair thinning and loss. A biopsy scalp can sometimes be taken to help diagnose severe or unexplained hair loss.
Although many drugs list “hair loss” among their possible side effects, drugs are also common causes not generally of thinning or hair loss. On the other hand, with cancer treatments and immunotherapy suppressing immunotherapy including chemotherapy, hair loss is a very common side effect. Often complete hair loss occurs after a course of chemotherapy for major cancer. Usually, hair grows again six months to 12 months.
