Why am I losing more hair than normal?
There is a medical condition called androgenetic alopecia that affects both men and women. It's when inherited genes cause hair follicles to shrink and stop growing. The shrinkage can start early, such as in the teen years, or start in later life.
One of the
causes of hair loss is excessive haircuts. Haircuts like cornrows
and ponytails make hair straight. If the hairstyle is good, the scalp
is pulled. This can lead to a type of hair loss called
traction alopecia. Certain hair treatments, such as hot oil treatment, can also cause
temporary or permanent hair loss.
Polycystic
ovary syndrome (POS) is a common cause of hormonal imbalance. It is a
condition that leads to the formation of a cyst on a woman's ovaries and
therefore affects hormones. Other causes include childbirth, menopause, taking birth
control pills, and thyroid problems.
Washing your hair
regularly can help reduce
hair loss. Make sure a mild
shampoo is used. Pour plenty of water over the
hair to make sure it reaches the scalp. Use coconut oil
after washing as it promotes blood circulation and hair
growth. Use olive oil as it protects the hair from damage. Use lavender oil as
it is known for rapid hair growth and improves scalp health.
Exercise can
help hair growth during blood circulation. Exercises like jogging, neck
exercises, and side hops can help increase hair growth. It helps regulate
hormone levels.
