My hair is falling out at a very rapid rate…I am even starting to get some bald spots. I do have high blood pressure, could this have anything to do with it? And what are some other reasons for hair loss. I’m only 20!
By the way…I eat very healthy stay on a well-balanced diet (for my high blood pressure) I don’t straighten my hair, I rarely color it the sun highlights it for me. Thanks for the help!

This is just a shot in the dark…

My girlfriend had an allergic reaction to her IUD. She eventually broke out in hives…. However, before that she start losing hair-a lot. Turns out her body is just really sensitive to foreign objects.

Otherwise, diet does play a strong role in blood pressure and hair loss. If you aren’t getting enough minerals and vitamins you could have both of those problems. Without knowing anything about your diet I can’t be more specific.

Good luck.

What is your typical diet? What do you eat and how much? Do you take any supplements ie minerals or vitamin?

Im a young girl who finds that shes losing a lot of hair.. too much. i was just wondering if anyone knows any reasons why this could be happening or some ways to stop it? i straightn my hair but not every day and i dont put product in it either apart fom a treatment.
also ive never coloured my hair either.

hello!
Hair loss in teenagers can happen for several reasons. The first step to remedying teenage hair loss is to discover the cause of the problem.

One type of hair loss that can occur in teens is Alopecia areata, the same type of balding that is prominent in adults. Teenagers may notice one or two inch, circular bald spots suddenly. Again, it is rare that teenagers experience this type of balding; however, teenagers with this gene may notice hair loss as early as fifteen years old. If the teen loses less than half of their hair, there is a promising chance that the hair will return to normal growth. However, there are plenty of cases that need to be treated with medications for hair loss.

Tinea Capitis is another reason why some teenagers experience hair loss. This condition is also known as scalp ringworm, which is a fungus that can cause hair to be lost in patches, hair to be broken, and the scalp to be affected. Tinia Capitis is contagious, therefore be certain to treat it with anti-fungal shampoos immediately upon discovery.

Traction Alopecia is a type of hair loss that occurs in a small number of teenagers. It is caused by extreme hair care treatment, such as excessive hair drying, curling or other heat treatments, bleach treatments, teasing, tight hairstyles, and pulling of hair, such as pony tails. Discontinuing the use of these treatments in an excessive manner will repeal this hair loss.

If it continues, try to consult your local doctor.
Take care…byee

I’m 22 and apparently my family are saying that I’m gaining abnormal hair loss; you can roughly see the skin of my head which apparently means it’s bad.

What are the number of reasons towards my hair loss? I know one could be stress but could my diet be affecting it too? And does staying up late be the cause? I make sure I get at least 7-8 hours even when staying up late so it should be OK, right? And what other reasons beyond the previous reasons I mentioned?

And another question I like to ask: what remedies are there to cure hair loss? That and any advice and such are very much welcome!

anyway as we know – hair loss can be caused by many different reasons! There are many causes of loss of hair such as stress, poor nutrition ,medications, thyroid dysfunctions, illness, fungal infections ,hormonal problems, to mention a few.

year ago my husband suffered very much from dandruff and hair loss too and he started trying everything you can imagine to stop his hair loss. the things that really worked for him was:

1) Vitamin A – an anti-oxidant which promotes healthy production of sebum in the scalp;

2) Vitamin E stimulates circulation. Good blood circulation in the scalp is important in keeping hair follicles productive. The ‘B’ vitamins contribute to melanin, which gives hair its healthy color and also stimulates blood circulation;

3) massage is also beneficial. Massage stimulates circulation. As already noted, good circulation in the scalp keeps hair follicles active. Experts suggest a few minutes of daily head massage by hand. Circulation through massage may be improved by using a few drops of lavender or bay essential oil in an almond or sesame oil base with massage;

4) Try rubbing your scalp with garlic juice, Onion Juice or Ginger Juice (you can either of one out of three, Do not mix any of two or three);

5) also he used herbal treatment – TrichoZed and Provilluss (do not use Rogaine – it will not work!)

Those are a good products that helps prevent hair loss and contains Biotin and the clinically tested ingredients approved by the FDA to help re-grow your hair.! I think it is very important!

It worked and still works for him!

I do not know if any pharmacies carry TrichoZed and Provillus but I do know that you should purchase it directly from the manufacturer and read more about the product here

i know someone who im very close with that her hair is apparently beggining to thin and some of it comes out when you comb it and she got tested for a thyroid and its negative so were really afraid it might be cancer and im really scared
This girl is 17 she had a blood test for a couple things including cancer which came out negative along with the thyroid but shes going in for a sonogram to make sure in a couple days.

Cancer doesn’t cause hair to fall out. treatments for cancer like, chemotherapy, or radiation cause hair to fall out. Chemotherapy drugs are powerful medications that attack rapidly growing cancer cells. A reason that her hair falls out might be

Seasonality which makes you lose the most hair in the fall — typically November and December when hair reaches maturity in its growth cycle.

Androgenic Alopecia, which is the prodominant cause of hair loss in both men and women. it occurs as the result of a build-up of the hormone DHT in the bloodstream. DHT binds itselt to your hair follicles and- long story short, it strangles them to death.

Vitamin & Mineral Deficiencies
People with poor dietary habits are far more likely to experience thinning hair in their lifetime. Vitamins and minerals keep us functioning. They are the catalyst for all of our life’s functions. Specifically, vitamins A, B, C, and E… along with magnesium, iron, zinc, and copper all work together to keep our integumentary system (skin, hair, and nails) tip-top and growing properly.

Poor pH Balance

This is one of the most overlooked principles in the entire world of health. Our bodies are only as healthy as the state of our blood. When we become acidic (as opposed to alkaline), all sorts of health challenges arise. Among these, dermatological conditions such as severe acne, cysts, psoriasis, and hair loss are not only possible, they’re to be expected.

I hope this helps and you guys figure out whats wrong.

Within 2 weeks, my 40-year old wife has loss more than 30% of her hair, showing the scalp skin clearly. She is understandably depressed, especially when doctors could not find anything wrong. She was not under any medications at the time which may be the cause of side effect. We have 6 month old girl which is breast feeding which some hinted could be a reason. The hairloss is still going, but it seemed to be lesser. What is the treatment to promote hair regrowth? Thank you for the reply….

Many women notice increased shedding from about 3 to 6 months after delivery, which is simply a sign of the body adjusting as hormone levels return to normal. It may take a couple of hair growth cycles (up to several years) before your texture completely returns to normal, especially if you wear your hair long. Many people claim that the onion’s high sulphur concentration is an effective treatment for scalp problems and can even stimulate hair growth

I noticed I’ve been "shedding" alot lately…

~I have been under some stress, but not a tremendous amount…No more then usual, less actually.
~I know I dont have the best diet, but I dont have an eating disorder.
~I’m young.

I dont know why this is happening, but it has me a little worried.
Oh, I thought I might need to add….

I also dont do alot of damage to my hair.
No hair dryer, curler, straighner, or heavy products.
It has been dyed twice before, but always seemed pretty healthy.

Could most likely be stress. Or if you pull your hair up it could be traction hair loss. I just went through that myself, I had my hair twisted in a too tight bun. The traction and pulling made my hair thin out on the side. If it gets really bad see your doctor. Try a folic acid suplement I just started one about 2 months ago and the hair is now coming back. That and I tied my hair up looser.

Hair loss or alopecia can result from a number of causes, ranging from the commonest androgenetic baldness through severe systemic illness to hair loss because of anticancer treatment. The treatment will obviously differ according to cause which needs to elucidated in every case before an individualized management strategy can be devised. The common types are discussed below.

Male Pattern Baldness (Androgenetic Alopecia)
This is by far the commonest cause of hair thinning and loss in adult males. The condition runs in families and has a strong genetic component to its causation. It is believed to be related to an excess of male hormones in the body (Androgens).

The hair starts thinning usually around the age of twelve, but it may be delayed up to the age of 40. Up to 50 % of the population may have experienced some degree of hair loss before entering into the 6th decade of their life.

The main abnormality in this type of hair loss is a more rapid cycle of hair growth. The hair follicles become smaller and the hair is shorter and thinner. They are shed earlier than normal, giving rise to a sparser and lighter growth.

The presentation can be extremely varied and can range from simply a receding hair line, to loss off hair from the crown and temples, to complete baldness. Very thin scanty filaments may be the only thing that is left in severe cases.

Female-pattern Baldness
It is rarer than the male counterpart, but differs in it appearance and presentation. Thinning of hair is more severe on the front, the temples and at the top. Some hair is generally present at the hair line despite patches of extensive baldness in rest of the scalp.

Alopecia Areata
It is an immunologically mediated disease which affects roughly 2% of the population, without any gender bias. Children and young adults are affected more commonly. The disease manifests as small rounded to oval patches of subtotal to total hair loss. It can affect of the hairy skin of any part of the body including scalp.

The hair follicles remain alive in this condition, and there is always a hope. The hair generally grows back, but such spontaneous remissions may come in months to years.

I m a 32 years old. I am facing a big hair falling for the last few days. What is the reason for hair loss? How can we prevent from it?

Some of the possible reasons for falling hair are:

Tension
Too much work
Illness
Poor diet
Over-exposure to the sun
Perming
Amateur bleaching
Too frequent and inexpert use of tints, rinses or other colourants

Here is what you can do to prevent hair fall

Shampoo regularly. Remember, a CLEAN scalp is a HEALTHY SCALP.

Brahmi amla oil also promotes hair growth.

A high protein diet with plenty of fruits, green vegetables and dairy products is a must.

Drink 10-12 glass of water everyday.

Use a very mild shampoo and condition your hair at least twice a week. When you do, make sure you rinse out the conditioner thoroughly, otherwise residue build-up will cause your hair to look limp and dull.

Know your vitamins! IRON is important for healthy hair and brittle, limp hair indicates an iron deficiency. Spinach has a good iron content, so gulp it down!

ZINC helps prevent hair loss and greying. Eat adequate zinc rich foods. Overweight people tend to have zinc deficiency, which is inversely related to the body mass index. Thus if you are overweight and if your hair falls too much, you may want to increase your intake of zinc containing foods. Recipes containing stone ground, wholegrain flour are rich in zinc.

A shortfall in VITAMIN B may cause dandruff, falling hair, loss of colour and could encourage grey hair. So B group Vitamins are essential for gloss, colour and thickness.

VITAMIN C ensures the health of capillaries supplying blood to hair follicles. Make sure your diet includes plenty of fresh fruits and veggies.

VITAMIN E encourages hair growth. Switch from refined flours to wholemeal and wheatgerm, eggs, vegetable oil.

COPPER stops hair from falling. Studies show that the copper content in the blood serum of people with falling hair is less than normal. Different types of alopecia (falling hair) are seen to have a deficiency of this important trace element. Include small quantities of nuts, especially cashews and peanuts, seeds, whole milk and beans in your diet as these contain minute but important amounts of copper.

Homemade remedies for preventing hair fall:

Apply almond oil on scalp and massage.
Grind fenugreek seeds in water and apply on your scalp. Wash off after 40 minutes. Do this every morning for a month ¡V if it suits you! Remember, different treatments suit different types of hair.
Massage warm castor oil + almond oil into your scalp gently. Wrap a hot towel around your scalp so it gets absorbed into the hair. Do this twice a week for healthy, shiny hair.
Add 2-3 drops of honey to a glass of water and use this as the last rinse after shampooing.

Quick Hair Care Conditioner

Mix 1 egg, 2 tbs castor oil, 1 tsp vinegar and 1 tsp glycerine. Beat until frothy and massage lightly into your scalp. Wrap your head in a hot towel, steam, then wash off. This conditioner makes hair thicker, shiny, soft and manageable.

Honey Conditioner

Beat 1-2 eggs (depending on the length of the hair), 1 tsp honey and 2 tsp olive oil. Massage gently into the scalp. Steam, and shampoo after an hour.

Alcohol Conditioner

Beat 1-2 eggs with 2 tsp brandy. Massage into your scalp. Leave for 10-15 mins. Rinse well. The egg nourishes your hair and brandy stimulates hair growth.

Your hair is a vital beauty asset, requiring constant loving care. And with a little nurturing, lush, glossy hair will be yours.
