Hair Loss In Women - Six Causes
|
By:
Mike Jones
A condition called Telogen Effluvium refers to a general shedding of hairs and it is common at any age with men and women. There are other types of hair loss though that have differences according to gender.
Signs of hair loss in men:
Hairline receding
Around the crown of the head especially a noticeable moderate or extensive loss of hair
Signs of hair loss in women:
A general thinning of hair all over the scalp
At the crown of the head and/or at the hairline - a moderate loss of hair
In summary, around 30 years of age a woman can start to experience some hair loss as hair starts to thin out rather than form a bald patch. By the time a woman reaches 40 years of age the hair thinning may be much more noticeable.
Here are six causes of hair loss in women which can help you identify the possible cause and decide whether to just wait for the hair to regrow, or if it is a more serious reason, get professional advice and take appropriate action:
#1. Pregnancy can be a factor in some cases. Pregnancy can have a physiological impact on the body and some women notice a certain amount of hair loss 3 to 6 months after the birth of a child. This is because of hair growth cycles and hair going into the resting phase around this time.
#2. Women who are on intensive diets and who lose considerable weight within a limited period of time may also find hair loss is a side effect.
#3.
#4. Some women use dyes, tints, straighteners, permanent waves, and bleaches. These can all take a toll and especially their improper use can contribute to hair loss in women.
These treatments may not affect healthy hair but if they are overused and not used in the proper quantities, hair can become stressed, brittle, and break easily. Wait for the hair to grow out before continuing any of these treatments, perhaps trying a different brand.
#5. Hair styles such as ponytails and braids can put demands on the hair and contribute to hair loss in women. So avoid the problem by not pulling the hair too tight when using these styles.
#6. Rough combing and brushing of the hair and vigorous rubbing with a towel after shampooing can cause it to break, adding further to the problem of Hair loss in women. Wide toothed combs and brushes with smooth tips are recommended to minimize hair breakage.
Conclusion:
Hair loss in women can cause acute anxiety as it can make some women feel less feminine and it can have an impact on their self-confidence. Perhaps in this area it affects women more than men.
In many cases, proper care and attention to hair can greatly reduce the danger of hair loss. In other cases involving illness or heredity, consulting with a professional hair stylist can result in a hair style that minimizes the effect of hair loss in women. |
