Possible Causes of Hair Falling:

Hair falling problem is usually hereditary, but at the same time, there are some other factors too that can cause hair fall issues. Some of the key factors of hair loss problems may include:

  • Inherited Problem: As said earlier, the hair falling problem is a genetic issue and people inherit it from any of their parents. It may be named as male pattern or female pattern hair loss.
  • Stress:  Stress is one of the major causes of hair fall problems. It has been observed that those who take too much stress generally suffer from this issue.
  • Chemotherapy: People who undergo chemotherapy also face hair falling issues as it damages hair very badly.
  • Age Factor: In humans the growth rate of hair becomes slow and with the passage of time hair starts to become weak and thinner.
  • Inappropriate Diet: Proteins and iron are very essential for the growth of hair. Therefore, if you are conscious about your hair growth then it is highly recommended to include the food items in your diet that are enriched with these nutrients. Those who do not include a sufficient amount of proteins and iron-enriched food in their diet normally face hair fall issues.
  • Thyroid disorders: Thyroid disorders like hypothyroidism and hyperthyroidism can also cause hair falling.

How is Hair fall diagnosed?

When it comes to diagnosing the hair falling problem then your dermatologist would start the process by asking a few basic questions. He might wish to know that whether hair fall has started suddenly or gradually. As it will be helpful for effective treatment.

Your doctor would want to know that are you taking any medication, are dieting, or are allergic? If you are a girl then he may ask a few questions about menses, pregnancy history, and menopause.

Your doctor would also cautiously do the check-up of your scalp and hair. At times the proof of hair loss lies in the scalp. Therefore, your hair expert would remove a piece of your scalp for examination. It is termed scalp biopsy.  This process is an essential part of diagnosing hair fall as it is very effective to get evidence about hair fall. To know more details your dermatologist will also ask for your blood test.
