7 Reasons Of Your Hair Falling Out

Hair loss has usually measured the range of aging men, but this equal-opportunity condition — which has many causes — can affect virtually anyone. Everyone loses about 100 hairs each day as part of the normal hair growth cycle, but the excess loss is usually a distressing development. Here, we identify some of the key causes of hair loss in women:

1.Genetics

A genetic predisposition of hormonal balances and imbalances, along with the conversion of testosterone into dihydrotestosterone (DHT), are the lead causes of hair loss.

2.Stress and Trauma

Stress and trauma can also compress the blood supply to the capillaries, causing a deficiency of oxygen and nutrient uptake, as well as poor vitamin and nutrient absorption of the hair follicles.

3.Nutrition and diet

Poor nutrition, quick weight loss, a high consumption of animal fats and deficiencies in biotin, iron, protein and zinc can reduce vitamin absorption needed for hair growth.

4.Medication

Everything from birth control to antibiotics, as well as many blood pressure, diabetic and heart disease and acne medications can cause temporary or permanent hair loss.

5.Environment

Environmental pollutants in the air and water, as well as exposure to chlorine, metals and minerals, can lead to hormonal changes that can contribute to hair loss.

6.Life changes

Hormonal imbalance during pregnancy can lead to temporary hair loss that can last from six months to up to a year after childbirth. During menopause, women can also experience hair loss due to hormonal changes.

7.Ageing

Unfortunately, as we grow older, our follicles can depreciate and cause hair loss.
