There are two main types of hair fall: hereditary and non-hereditary. In non-hereditary hair fall, it is believed that the body’s immune system attacks the follicles, causing them to shrink. This causes hair fall. Hair loss due to an imbalance in the body usually manifests as male pattern baldness, where all the hair on the top of the scalp is completely falling out, leaving only a thin line of hair at the sides of the scalp.
Androgenic alopecia, on the other hand, is the term used to describe female or male pattern baldness. It is quite common among women. Female pattern hair loss is genetic in origin.
Both male and female pattern hair loss are usually genetic. Men typically lose hair from the crown and temples of their head. In women, however, the hair tends to become thinner all over the entire head.
It can also be caused by an overproduction of sebum, which in turn causes the hair follicles to produce more oil to help it stay moist. When the oils start seeping out, it creates a vacuum, which pulls the strands out of the follicles and starts the shedding process.
But there are cases where the hair shedding does not appear to be related to an overproduction of oils. For example, women may have hair that is completely bald. However, they may notice that they do not shed as much as before, and this is most probably because the levels of estrogen in their body has fallen. Estrogen is one of the hormones that are produced by the ovaries.
So if you are experiencing female pattern hair loss, it is always best to consult a doctor first before trying out any treatment for yourself. If you have tried all the hair loss remedies and still have no success, then a visit to your doctor may be the solution that you need to improve your looks and regain your confidence.
There are some medical treatments available that may be helpful in improving your hair growth and make you look younger and healthier. For example, if your hair loss is due to medical causes, such as chemotherapy or thyroid disease, your doctor may prescribe drugs that can help improve your condition and stop your hair loss.
If you are experiencing hair loss because of stress and anxiety, then it is important that you take some time to relax. You do not have to give up hope. There are various treatments that you can use to help get rid of your stress and even cure your hair fall.
No matter what the cause of your hair loss is, it is important that you get a hair loss solution that works for you. In this case, it is always best that you visit a doctor to find out the problem first.
