Anti-Hair Fall Treatment
Protein is necessary for hair and helps to grow new hair. Yogurt, eggs and pulses are useful proteins, but Keratin is the single most protein that is helpful in producing our hair, which is made up of the protein Keratin. A single hair consists of a hair shaft, a root below the skin, and a follicle, from which the hair shaft grows. At the lower end of the follicle is the hair bulb, where the hair's color melanin, or pigment is produced.
Most people lose about 60 to 100 strands of hair a day but usually these are replaced. But if you're losing much more than that, something could be wrong.
If you have unusual hair loss and don't know what's causing it, contact your dermatologist immediately. A doctor can determine reasons for falling hair and suggest a treatment.
Causes of Hair Loss
Following are few reason for hair loss in teens:-- Medical conditions and illness is one reason for hair loss. Disease such as uncontrolled diabetes or thyroid can interfere with hair production and cause hair loss.
- Medications and drugs is another reason as some medications that have hair loss as a side effect. Medications related to chemotherapy drugs for cancer are probably the most well-known that cause hair loss.
- Hair treatments and styling are another cause of hair loss. Having your hair chemically treated, bleached, colored, premed or straightened can cause damage that may make the hair break off or fall out temporarily.
- Poor nutrition or poor eating can contribute to hair loss. This is the reason some people with eating disorders like bulimia and anorexia lose their hair as the body isn't getting enough vitamins, protein, and minerals to sustain hair growth.
- Change in lifestyle is another cause where major events can alter the hair's growth cycle temporarily. For example, having surgery, delivering a baby, or getting anesthesia can temporarily stop the hair growth cycle but this type of hair loss usually corrects itself.
