Hair fall is normal, but sometimes hair fall may cross the normal limit of 50-100 strands per day and the rate of hair fall may exceed the rate of hair growth leading to thinning of hair and baldness. Patchy hair loss is another problem that is faced by many people. Both genders can face this issue due to various medical and environmental reasons.

Hair thinning or baldness are indications of alopecia and can be caused due to a variety of reasons. Even though this issue is not gender-specific, the problem is more common in men than women. Receding hairline and patchy hair loss are also seen commonly in men.

There can be several reasons for hair loss, but till now no particular reason has been figured out. Here are some of the reasons because of which one can face the issue of hair fall-

Usually, it is seen that people who have a family history of baldness also lose hair with age. The problem may appear as you grow, sometimes earlier or later in life. Clinically, it is known as androgenetic alopecia and is marked by bald patches and receding hairline in both genders. It is indicated by thinning hair.

Dihydrotestosterone (DHT) hormone which is produced by the body naturally is also considered the cause of baldness in men. It is believed that age-related hair loss is triggered by the action of this hormone.

Women may suffer from excessive hair loss during pregnancy, after childbirth, and after menopause due to hormonal imbalance. Thyroid disorders can also lead to hair loss.

The scalp can get infected with ringworm causing scaly patches and excessive hair fall.

The body’s immune system may attack the hair follicles causing sudden hair loss. It is called Alopecia areata, which is marked by round bald patches on the scalp.

Lack of sleep, stress, strain, mental tension, and work pressure are also considered as some of the common causes of hair fall. Most people do not pay attention to their diet and may miss out on the important nutrients that are necessary for healthy hair growth.

If baldness is the cause of low self-confidence, one should go for hair fall treatment. Some people feel that their appearance is greatly affected due to thin hair, they can opt for this treatment for better looks.

We conduct tests to understand the possible causes of hair loss. The test may include complete blood count (CBC), iron level, vitamin B, thyroid function tests (TFT), scalp biopsy, etc.
