Hair Fall

Hair fall, also known as hair loss or alopecia, is a common condition that affects both men and women. It can be caused by various factors, and understanding the underlying cause is essential to determine the appropriate treatment.
Here are some common causes of hair fall:

Androgenetic Alopecia (Male or Female Pattern Baldness): This is the most common cause of hair loss, especially in men. It is a hereditary condition and can also affect women.

Telogen Effluvium: This type of hair loss occurs due to physical or emotional stress, illness, surgery, rapid weight loss, hormonal changes, or certain medications.

Alopecia Areata: This is an autoimmune condition in which the body's immune system mistakenly attacks the hair follicles, causing hair loss in patches.

Thyroid Disorders: Both hypothyroidism (underactive thyroid) and hyperthyroidism (overactive thyroid) can cause hair loss.

Nutritional Deficiencies: Lack of essential nutrients, such as iron, zinc, biotin, and vitamin D, can contribute to hair loss.

If you are experiencing significant hair fall, it is advisable to consult a dermatologist or a trichologist (hair specialist) to determine the cause and receive appropriate treatment recommendations. Early intervention can often lead to better outcomes in managing hair loss.
