WHAT TO DO WITH EXCESSIVE HAIR LOSS?
Hair loss is one of the signs telling us that we might be in trouble and this might be the beginning of the baldness in the future. But hey, don’t be paranoid too soon because actually, hair loss has its own criteria of how much it’s worth worrying about. Let’s dig deeper today!
You may encounter hair loss on pillows, drain holes in the bathroom, or fall on the floor, which can even occur with a normal person who does not have a problem with hair loss. Ideally, if your hair falls not more than 100 hairs per day (in the case of washing your hair every day), it’s still very normal. There’s nothing to worry about, but if you wash your hair every two days then it’s normal if the hair falls up to 200 hairs.
Ok, now if your hair loss is more than 100 strands, what should you do? Easy, You can just make an appointment to consult a specialist in dermatology or even hair transplant surgeon. The doctor will ask about your genetic history as well as check the patient’s lifestyle habits. Sometimes the hair loss that occurs may be a temporary condition that can be caused by a sudden change in lifestyle and other diseases.
Most of the time, if it is found that the cause of hair loss is a change in lifestyle or disease, all you have to do is to adjust the behavior to return to normal or cure the disease, and the hair loss problem will be gone.
However, if the cause is genetic and hormonal, this may be treated with medications, orally or topically, or with other treatments such as treatment or LLLT.
How was it? You see, actually, the problem of hair loss is not so difficult that it can’t be solved, but we should be aware and start treating it early, otherwise, it may become worse and you might end up in the baldness stage, which you will only have to get a hair transplant done instead. Then it will be even more expensive. What will be my next article? Please stay tuned!
