Hair loss whether you are a man or a woman is disconcerting to say the least. It is important to get a physical to rule out serious health conditions. There are causes to hair loss. Hair Re-growth-hair loss remedies are available for both men and women. Most treatments are effective. The one that will be most effective for your needs can be determined with the help of your physician.Causes of Hair LossHair loss can be hereditary. If a parent experienced thinning hair or balding it is likely that you may develop it as well. The good news is that you don't have to be resigned to "your fate."Physical and emotional stress can also cause hair loss. The reason for this may be that the body is using its energy to heal or recover from the stress and thus it takes away from the energy it uses to help grow your hair. Illnesses and high fevers can create hair loss as well. Nervous habits that may result from these stresses such as pulling your hair or rubbing your scalp excessively can pull out hair or break it and cause it to fall out.Hormonal changes in both men and women can also trigger hair loss. Certain medications such as those used in chemotherapy and radiation treatments are known to cause hair loss.The good news is that once treatment is suspended hair will grow back over time.Washing, blow drying, or combing your hair roughly when it is tangled can cause hair to weaken or become brittle and fall out. It's best to use a conditioner or a detangler to make combing your hair especially after washing easier.TreatmentsPharmaceutical treatments include oral medications and topical treatments that may or may not require a prescription are available.
