Reasons For Hair Loss

You are standing in front of the mirror and as you run the brush through your hair, it comes out with strands of hair attached to it. That moment is perhaps the most scary and depressing in your life.
It stresses a lot of people and both men and women are victims to it. Lately, hair loss or Alopecia has been on the rise among many men and women aged between 18 and 40.
The gradual thinning of hair and its eventual fall as clumps send shockwaves through your body. But that is not a cause of concern or panic anymore because science has got an answer and YCDC has got the best solution to treat it.
Most of the time, hair loss occurs based on the condition of physical or emotional well-being but there is enough help available at YCDC to take care of that.

Genetic Hair Loss in Men

The two types of hair loss seen among men is hair thinning known as Alopecia and Balding known as Androgenetic Alopecia which is caused primarily due to hormones and genes.
Balding usually begins at the sides of both temples and eventually the hairline recedes to form a ‘M’ shape.
Simultaneously, the hair also begins to thin at the crown (top of the head) and it lands into partial or complete baldness.

Balding is a common phenomenon in women as well and it is otherwise called as Androgenetic Alopecia. Studies reveal that nearly 40% of women tend to show signs of balding when they reach the age of 50.
Hair thinning is of different types such as hair shedding or reduction of hair volume or a combination of both.
Genetic hair loss is also linked to Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) which leads to excess body hair, weight gain and irregular menstruation but in reality, it is caused mainly by the hormonal imbalance.

Telogen Effluvium is that hair condition which leads to typical reduction of pony tail volume and excessive hair shedding.
This is a temporary hair loss which occurs due to diffuse shedding of resting hair when a body experiences a shock.
When such a thing happens, an individual tends to lose nearly 100-125 hairs per day. Due to this, nearly 70% of active hair also known as Anagen hair gets into the zone of resting hair known as telogen hair which results in a sizeable quantity of hair being pushed out of the scalp.

This is another hair condition where hair falls in round patches.
This is usually found on the scalp or sometimes on the body but this is not contagious.
This is caused due to an abnormality in the immune system and the hair follicles get attacked which leads to hair loss.

You may not be aware of this but on a daily basis about 100-125 hairs are lost and in the event of any shock to the body then it can go up to 300 hairs.
Some of the precipitating factors are prolonged illness such as infection or high fever, thyroid hormone disorder, certain oral medications, nutrient deficiency such as iron, vitamin B12; scalp infection, pregnancy, stress, menopause, hormonal imbalance, harsh chemical and physical treatments such as hair colouring, straightening, lengthening.
