Hair loss causes - baldness triggers and treatments
Baldness is a problematic condition for a large majority of the
male population. Find out how to effectively identify different
hair loss causes and how to remove their negative effects by
finding the appropriate treatment.
Hair loss causes - hormonal imbalance
Hormonal problems are often known to cause hair loss issues,
especially if the thyroid gland becomes overactive (or even
under active). Certain hair loss products are focused on
balancing your hormonal levels, and it is important to make sure
that you have correctly identified the hair loss trigger before
starting treatment. Other hormonal imbalances might trigger hair
loss: androgens and estrogens are essential male and female
hormones and their imbalance can cause multiple physical
changes, including falling hair. Your hair loss product should
be specifically designed to work in particular hormonal problems
- make sure to consult with your doctor in order to identify the
causes precisely.
Drug effects on hair loss
After different illnesses or surgery procedures, hair loss is a
common side effect. This might be due to the chemical
composition of the drug treatments used for treating the
illness. However, hair loss might also happen because of stress
and anxiety related to the illness. In such cases, finding the
right hair loss product or treatment should consider the
triggering cause. Different drugs, like anticoagulants,
chemotherapy or excessive A vitamin intakes may trigger hair
loss. In accordance to the trigger, your hair loss product
should aim specifically at reducing excessive hair falling while
not interfering with the effect of other drugs. Your doctors
should help you make a correct decision in this case. Here are
the most common hair loss related diseases and conditions:
Toxic alopecia
This is a temporary infection of the scalp, caused by various
diseases such as diabetes, syphilis, poor digestions and
different hormonal problems. Different mineral and vitamin
deficiencies may also lead to male hair loss through alopecia.
This is especially true for the A vitamin deficiency. The
infectious disease can last up to four months and is one of the
most brutal and severe hair loss problems.
Male hair loss and scarring alopecia
A variation of the above mentioned disease, scarring occurs
after the scalp tissue becomes inflamed and begins to decompose.
Various causes may lead to scarring alopecia: physical trauma,
injuries, burns, prolonged x-ray exposure. Other causes might be
of infectious nature: deep ulcers, sarcoidosis, syphilis, or
tuberculosis, cutaneous lupus erythematosus, lichen planus,
chronic deep bacterial or fungal infections. Male hair loss
through scarring alopecia is severe ad re-growth is usually not
expected without medical intervention.
Alopecia areata - another male hair loss problem
This form of infection is also known to have rapid effects and
produce sudden male hair loss. Although less severe than the
infections mentioned previously, alopecia areata is still a
problem some men have to face. The number of patients affected
by it is very low and treatment is sometimes unnecessary, since
the hair re-growth process starts on its own.
Trichotillomania
This is not a physical hair loss condition, but rather a
psychologically induced one. It is a habit of pulling out hair
and is often left undiagnosed. Although it starts during
childhood, the condition often continues to adulthood, becoming
one of the male hair loss problems.
