Hair Loss Treatment

Hair loss affects both men and women of all ages and is a common dermatological condition. A healthy body is indicated by healthy hair. It is commonly recognized that hair loss can have negative psychological and emotional repercussions on both men and women.

The first indicator of hair loss is more than just how you perceive or feel about your appearance. There are many medical issues that might cause hair loss. Premature baldness is becoming more prevalent than ever before, thus it needs to be thoroughly examined. The majority of people have severe hair loss as a result of their stressful lifestyle, poor diet, family history, and other causes.

Understanding the difference between normal and severe hair loss is crucial. The National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI) states that losing 50–100 hair strands per day is normal. However, it can be an indication of hair loss if you're losing more hair than usual.

Different Types Of Hair Loss

Hair loss affects a person's physical and psychological well-being. Before selecting the best hair treatment, it is essential to determine it’s type. The most common types of hair loss include the following:

1. Alopecia Areata

   At any age, alopecia areata is a prevalent cause of hair loss. Small, rounded patches of baldness on the head are a result of this disorder. The immune system targets the hair follicles in this auto-immune condition, causing damage and hair loss on the scalp, eyebrows, eyelashes, limbs, face, and other areas of the body as well.

2. Pattern Baldness

   Male or Female Pattern hair loss, sometimes referred to as androgenetic alopecia (AGA), is a disorder that causes mostly top and frontal scalp hair loss. In cases of male-pattern hair loss (MPHL), the hair loss frequently results into a receding front hairline, hair loss on the scalp's vertex, or a mix of the two. Female-pattern hair loss (FPHL) often turns as an all-over diffuse thinning of the hair.

3. Traction Alopecia

   Some hairstyles, such as tight braids and ponytails, strain hair so firmly away from the scalp that hair strands are broken and fall out. Without a change in hairdo, traction alopecia may result in bald areas or thinning hair. Usually, hair grows back after you change your hairstyle.

4. Telogen effluvium

   Telogen effluvium is a disorder that develops when many hair follicles on the scalp reach the telogen phase, also known as the resting phase, of the hair development cycle but do not start the subsequent growth phase. This leads to extensive scalp hair loss because there is no growth of new hair.
   The majority of the time, an illness like a thyroid condition, pregnancy, surgery, or fever will cause this type of hair loss. Telogen effluvium may also result from a deficiency in specific vitamins, minerals, or medications, such as the blood thinner warfarin or the acne medicine isotretinoin. Women frequently lose their hair for reasons related to iron deficiency.

5. Cicatricial Alopecia

   Cicatricial Alopecia is an uncommon kind of hair loss in which inflammation kills hair follicles and replaces them with scar tissue. The onset of hair loss might happen suddenly or slowly enough that no signs are apparent. Other signs and symptoms include excruciating itching, swelling, and lesions on the scalp that are red or white and may mimic a rash. Men and women of any age might experience this kind of hair loss.

6. Folliculitis Decalvans

   Redness, swelling, and lesions on the scalp that may be itchy or contain pus, known as pustules, are frequently present in patients with folliculitis decalvans, an inflammatory condition that destroys hair follicles.

Reasons for Hair Loss in Men and Women

The most frequent cause of hair loss as people age is considered to be heredity. Androgenic alopecia is another name for this disorder (AA). There are two varieties of AA: female-pattern baldness and male pattern baldness, which refers to hair loss in men (hair loss in women). In both male and female pattern baldness, dihydrotestosterone (the male sex hormone) is a major contributor to hair loss.

There are, however, a few additional frequent causes of hair loss. Several of which are listed below:

• Poor nutrition:

  This is one of the most common reasons for hair loss, especially in India. Iron deficiency (anaemia) tops the list followed by protein deficiency as the leading cause of hair fall. Improper absorption of nutrients can also lead to poor nutrition.

• Crash dieting:

  Excessive dieting (especially mono dieting) disturbs the balance of protein, carbohydrates and fat; becoming a major hair fall reason.

• Oral contraceptives:

  Certain oral contraceptives with synthetic progesterone can be a reason for hair fall (female pattern baldness).

• Smoking:

  Nicotine (tobacco) causes shrinkage in your blood vessels and blocks the blood circulation to your hair follicles. With decreased blood supply to your hair follicles, your hair growth cycle is disturbed. Therefore, smoking makes it a leading reason for hair fall.

• Mental stress:

  Stress can be a significant contributor to hair loss in people. It is unknown what specific process causes this type of hair loss. Physical or emotional trauma often results in hair thinning some months later.

• Dandruff:

  Dandruff is inflamed, flaky skin on the scalp, which hinders proper circulation and nutrition to the hair. This becomes one of the many leading causes of hair loss.

• Medications:

  Drugs used in the treatment of gout, depression, arthritis, high blood pressure, and heart problems contain ingredients that can trigger or be a cause of hair fall.

• Hormonal changes:

  Pregnancy, childbirth, menopause, hypothyroidism, hyperthyroidism, PCOS, etc can all be major hair fall reasons due to changes in hormones. Certain birth control pills can cause a temporary hormonal imbalance which also contributes to being a major reason for hair fall.

• Hair products:

  This is among the most common causes of hair loss. Chemical treatment of hair, especially with ammonia-based products, perming, straightening, ironing, etc., can be harmful. This can lead to hair damage and can become a major reason for hair fall.

Hair Loss Treatment in Homeopathy

Homeopathy is a system of medicine that can effectively treat hair loss with its gentle and natural approach. In homeopathy treatment for hair problem, a homeopathic trichologist aims to treat the root cause of hair loss and strengthen the hair follicles. Homeopathy medicines help to control hair thinning and provide nourishment for hair regrowth. Many conventional dermatological treatments have serious potential side effects and don’t reduce the chances of reappearance of hair thinning. Homeopathy treatment not only reduces the chances of reappearance but is also a side-effect-free hair loss solution.

Hair fall treatment in homeopathy considers the causes like genetics, family history, hormonal imbalance, nutritional factors, emotional stress, and other factors which may act as triggers for baldness.

Results of homeopathy treatment are long-lasting, and not superficial. Treatment is provided based on individualization, which is tailoring the remedy according to the individual's needs. For example, two patients suffering from the same type of hair loss problem may receive different medications depending on their case details.
