Bad news: there are many things that can cause hair loss or contribute to such.
Good news: that means there are many ways to fix it (many of them quick and easy)!
Locking in the locks
Nine things to use to your advantage:
- Establish your hair-shedding baseline: if your hairbrush or shower drain is suddenly accumulating alarming amounts of hair, you’ll know that “something wrong is not right” and be able to take action—but only if you’ve been paying attention to how much you usually shed.
- Find the cause: because there’s no one-size-fits-all hair loss treatment, it is worth investing (time and energy, if not money) in identifying the specific cause before trying solutions, and avoid wasting money on generic products that might help at all against your specific thing.
- Know when you just need time to recover: especially bearing in mind that surgeries and other physical trauma can shock the body, leading to temporary hair loss. In such cases, usually no additional action is required, but you do need to take it easy for a while.
- Manage anxiety and stress: because chronic stress or psychological trauma can also trigger hair loss. The solution in such cases is stress management, not topical treatments.
- Be aware of female pattern baldness: thinning on the top and temples usually indicates this. Minoxidil is the most effective treatment if started early.
- Nourish your hair from the inside: because poor nutrition, especially low iron or caloric restriction, can weaken hair. Thus, he recommends a balanced, nutrient-rich diet (which hopefully you aim for anyway, but it’s a thing to bear in mind).
- Keep an eye on medications: some meds can cause hair loss, which if people don’t know that, they can often blame unrelated things like their shampoo. So, be particularly attentive to this when starting/stopping any given medication, or changing a dosage.
- Treat your menopause: hormonal changes during menopause often lead to thinning hair. Hormone replacement therapy (HRT) can restore that balance and improve hair health, along with reducing other health risks associated with untreated menopause.
- Be mindful of undiagnosed medical conditions: this may seem like a hard one to put into practice, what with not knowing about undiagnosed medical conditions, but common issues like thyroid disorders can cause unexplained hair loss. If the other causes mentioned above don’t fit and/or you’re tending to those and still seeing hair loss, see a doctor and get bloodwork done.
