What causes hair loss in women

A beautiful and free-flowing hair is a standard configuration for every beauty-loving girl. Therefore, women generally care very much about the health of their hair. Recently, many female friends have told me that they feel they are suddenly experiencing severe hair loss. What is the reason? Today I will tell you about the reasons why women suffer from severe hair loss.

one. Male pattern baldness

Also known as male pattern baldness, it is the main cause of most hair loss patients. The main feature of male pattern baldness is that hair loss has obvious regional characteristics, such as concentrated hair loss on the head, hairline and other places, and gradually the hair becomes bare.

Generally speaking, female hair loss is closely related to father's hair loss. Studies have shown that if the father has hair loss and the mother does not, the probability of genetic inheritance in women is less than 15%. If the mother has hair loss and the father does not, the probability of genetic inheritance is close to 0. If both the father and the mother have hair loss, the probability of genetic inheritance is more than 50%.

What to do when you encounter male pattern baldness?

First of all, we should pay more attention to our lifestyle. Greasy diet, too much work pressure, staying up late, and excessive depression are all endocrine imbalances that stimulate our hair follicles and accelerate hair loss.

Secondly, early-stage hair loss should be paid attention to promptly, medical treatment should be sought proactively, and medication treatment still has a lot of room for improvement. Minoxidil and other drugs can play a great role in the early stages.

Finally, for late-stage hair loss, or congenitally high hairline, with large areas of bare hair, the effect of medicine is very limited, so we can fill the gap through hair transplantation treatment. At present, the domestic hair transplant technology has been very mature, and I have introduced a lot of details to you before. You can pay attention to it.

2. Postpartum hair loss

Postpartum hair loss is a problem that almost every woman encounters. The main feature is that the hair on the head is sparse, and it starts to fall out from the hairline, which is manifested as an M-shaped hairline or unclear hairline, also known as "postpartum hair loss".

The main culprit for postpartum hair loss is estrogen. During pregnancy and after childbirth, the body's estrogen levels change dramatically from high to low, estrogen levels decrease, and hair loss increases.

What should I do if I encounter hair loss after childbirth?

First of all, relax. After the estrogen level returns to normal after childbirth, postpartum hair loss is generally cured.

For mothers whose postpartum hair loss is not very serious, it is most important to relax and relieve stress. Hair loss will stop automatically in 6 to 9 months after giving birth. There is no need to increase stress. Let family members take care of the baby at night to improve sleep quality. Eat more vitamin B2-rich foods during the confinement period and follow a diet therapy.

For severe postpartum hair loss, obvious M-shaped hairline, thinning hair, and bare hair, you can see a doctor for a check-up and supplement some estrogen if necessary. After the postpartum hair loss stops, if there is a lot of hair loss and obvious baldness appears on the hairline, hairline, and forehead, you can also choose local hair transplantation to restore your youthful and beautiful appearance. There is always a way to deal with it without being too depressed.
