Hair Loss and what you can do to take control of the situation

 

Here we will talk about baldness that isn’t due to your inherited likelihood towards balding. It should be noted that if you are a guy then it is 90+% that your baldness is hereditary. By that calculation only 10% of guys who suffer from baldness have a condition where their hair loss isn’t hereditary. Here we will go into some details about hair loss which is caused by either internal or external forces acting against your normal hair growth.

Research has indicated that the highest instances of hair loss (that isn’t hereditary) is due to some trauma due to some external agent acting on the body. This trauma can come from anything from radiation, diseases, viruses, body trauma, poisoning, childbirth or even severe levels of stress can all cause hair loss to a certain degree.

There is a condition called Trichotillomania which can afflict some people. This condition isn’t so much a problem with the hair or anything to do with the hair, rather it is a problem with the owner of the hair. It is a psychotic problem with where the person has a compulsive disorder of continually pulling or bending their hair which causes unnecessary trauma to the hair and the roots. This problem tends to occur more with frequently with children or adolescent than in adults and is suspected to be linked with an inability to cope with stress which manifests into a psychological disorder. In this condition hair isn’t actually absent from the scalp, rather it is normally broken near the scalp or new hair grows which is very fine looking more like “peach fluff” rather than normal colored hair.
