What causes hair loss?

Are you losing more hair, now that you are older? Before deciding on a treatment to restore your hair, know what causes hair loss.

Genetics

A person genetically predisposed to hormonal imbalances may experience balding or hair loss. Patterns can be inherited from either your mother’s or father’s side of the family.

Stress and trauma

Being under a lot of stress causes an increase in testosterone level, which then converts to DHT and interrupts the hair growth cycle. It also constricts the blood supply, leading to poor nutrient absorption in the hair follicles.

Nutrition and diet

Poor nutrition can reduce vital amino acids and vitamin absorption needed for hair growth.

Medication

Birth control, steroids, blood pressure medication, and even acne medications can cause temporary or permanent hair loss.

Hair loss causes can sometimes be reversed
