NORMAL HAIR FALL :
It is totally normal to lose some
hair each day. Most people lose about 50 to 100 hairs
every day. Normally, when hair falls out, new hairs
start forming in the same place as the old ones. But
when someone really has hair loss, the hairs don't grow
back. they do grow, but there aren't enough of them to
take the place of what's already fallen out or the ratio
of hair falling is much more than the growth.
CAUSE OF HAIR FALL :
A number of
things can cause excessive hair loss. For example, about
3 or 4 months after an illness or a major surgery, you
may suddenly lose a large amount of hair. This hair loss
is related to the stress of the illness and is
temporary.
Hormonal problems may cause hair loss. If your thyroid
gland is overactive or under active, your hair may fall
out. Many women notice hair loss about three months
after they've had a baby. Some medicines can cause hair
loss eg. Birth control pills and antidepressants. This
type of hair loss improves when you stop taking the
medicine. Children may have hair loss caused by a fungal
infection of the scalp. Stress to a large extend cause
hairfall. Change of city causes hairfall due to the
change in water.
The term "common baldness" usually means male-pattern
baldness. Male-pattern baldness is the most common cause
of hair loss in men. Men who have this type of hair loss
usually have inherited the trait. Men who start losing
their hair at an early age tend to develop more
extensive baldness. In male-pattern baldness, hair loss
typically results in a receding hairline and baldness on
the top of the head.
Management of hairfall :
Taking
Right Care
If you want to keep hair healthy, start by feeding it
from the inside out.
Balanced Diet for
Healthy Hair Eating a diet that has lots of vitamins,
minerals and a well-balanced one will make hair strong
and shiny. Extra Care while Combing Be careful when
you're combing your hair after washing it because it's
extra delicate when it's wet. Avoid Chemical Damage Go
easy on the styling products and straightners, which can
damage hair and make it weak. Tie Them Loose When you're
combing or brushing your hair, do it gently, and keep
braids and ponytails loose so they don't hurt your hair
by pulling it too tightly.
Homeopathy for hair loss
:
Most of the hair loss conditions
can be very effectively treated within homeopathy. The
treatment depends on the causative factor and the
constitution of the patient as well.
