Hair Fall Treatment
Hair fall is a common concern that affects people across age groups and genders. While it's normal to shed 50 to 100 hairs a day, excessive hair loss can be distressing and often points to underlying issues that need medical attention. At Kosmetica in Vadodara, Dr. Priyank Katwala helps individuals understand their unique hair fall patterns and offers personalized treatment approaches.
What is Hair Fall?
Hair fall, or hair loss, refers to the shedding of hair from the scalp or other parts of the body. It can be temporary or permanent and is often influenced by factors like genetics, hormonal changes, health conditions, or environmental stressors.
There are different types of hair fall, including:
- Androgenetic Alopecia (pattern baldness)
- Telogen Effluvium (stress-related hair loss)
- Alopecia Areata (autoimmune condition)
- Traction Alopecia (caused by tight hairstyles)
Identifying the type of hair fall is the first step in selecting the most effective treatment.
Why Does Hair Fall?
Hair fall can occur due to a variety of reasons—some obvious, others less so. Common causes include:
- Hormonal Imbalances: Thyroid disorders, PCOS, and pregnancy can disrupt the hair growth cycle.
- Nutritional Deficiencies: Lack of protein, iron, and essential vitamins often leads to thinning hair.
- Stress and Lifestyle Factors: High stress levels, poor sleep, and irregular routines can impact hair health.
- Medical Conditions: Chronic illnesses or autoimmune diseases may contribute to hair loss.
- Use of Harsh Products: Frequent chemical treatments, heat styling, or unsuitable hair care products can damage hair follicles.
Understanding the cause is crucial to addressing the condition effectively.
Common Symptoms of Hair Fall
Not all hair fall is immediately noticeable. Here are a few signs that indicate the problem might need medical attention:
- Noticeable thinning on the crown or temples
- Increased hair shedding while combing or showering
- Bald patches or receding hairline
- Weaker hair strands with slow regrowth
- Itching, flaking, or scalp irritation
If you identify with any of these symptoms, it’s wise to consult a specialist early to prevent further progression.
