What causes hair loss?

1. Physiological hair loss

Physiological hair loss refers to the thinning of hair on the entire scalp, which is usually related to illness, mental stress, malnutrition and other conditions. To treat physiological hair loss, you must start with treating the disease. Generally, after the disease is cured or the physical condition improves, the hair will gradually grow again.

2. Abnormal lifestyle and diet

The nutrition of hair comes from the body's absorption of nutrition. If the daily diet does not take in enough nutrition, not only the health of the body will be affected, but the condition of the hair will also be affected. If there are also bad living habits, such as staying up late, smoking and drinking too much, lack of exercise, etc., it will lead to decreased gastrointestinal function and problems with nutrition absorption, thus causing hair loss.

3. Emotional problems

Hair loss is also related to mental state. If a person is often in a state of tension and anxiety, the sebaceous glands will become active and the scalp will secrete a large amount of fat. If not dealt with in time, the production of dandruff will increase, and then the hair follicles will be damaged, causing hair loss.

4. Some medical diseases and medications may cause excessive hair loss

Some drugs may have the side effect of causing hair loss, such as drugs used to treat thyroid disease, immune diseases, anemia, bacterial infection, tumor chemotherapy, anticoagulant therapy, etc.
