3 Main reasons for hair loss and its prevention plan.
Over time, you might experience hair loss. Some of the degrees of hair loss are normal. But in some, hair loss is linked with genetics, nutrient deficiencies, underlying ailment, stress, etc. Read on to know about hair loss causes and preventive measures.
3 common reasons for hair loss in men and women
Listed below are the three main reasons for hair loss in men and women.
Genetics
One of the common sayings is that hair loss can be traced back to your grandfather on your mother’s side. Actually, there is some genetic evidence behind it. One of the well-known genes related to hair loss is the AR gene which codes for the androgen receptor protein. Among other functions, this protein helps hair follicle cells detect androgen hormones like testosterone that circulate through the body. Testosterone and other androgens can affect when, where, and how much your hair grows. The AR gene is located on the X chromosome, which means that, for males, it was inherited from their mother.
Nutrient deficiencies
Another main reason for hair loss is nutrient deficiencies. Iron deficiency (anaemia) tops the list and is followed by protein deficiency. Improper absorption of nutrients can also lead to poor nutrition.
Underlying ailment
Thyroid disease, lupus, diabetes, iron deficiency anaemia, eating disorders, and anaemia can cause hair loss. When the underlying ailment is treated, the lost hair will return unless there is scarring as in some forms of lupus, lichen planus or follicular disorders.
Preventive measures
The preventive measures include hair loss solutions in which genetic assessment is done by Dr Batra’s®. Geno Homeopathy is the world’s first-ever gene-targeted homeopathic therapy.
