3 Things You Should Check If You are Suffering From Hair Loss

Are you suffering from intense hair loss? Hair fall is normal but if you have been noticing clumps of hair falling out of your head every time you take a bath, it’s probably time to check what’s amiss.

Here are some of the things that you need to check if you are suffering from hair loss:

  1. Your lifestyle

A stressful lifestyle could be what’s causing you to suffer from this condition. When you are inundated with stress, the body’s systemic functions can act up. It can also cause your hair follicles to go into telogen effluvium, which is a state where the hair goes into a resting period. It’s usually caused by a “shock” to the system such as intense stress. While it might be able to resolve itself, some people experience losing up to 70% of their hair.

  1. Your hormones

Hormonal imbalances can happen to many women, especially after giving birth or during menopause. This can also cause the hair follicles to go into a resting phase. Correcting hormonal imbalance can greatly help when it comes to preventing more hair loss in North Vancouver.

  1. Medications that you are taking

Some medications can have hair loss as a side effect. There are also instances when a change in mediation can trigger a resting phase in the hair. This can happen to people taking oral contraceptives as well. 

Seeking the help of a naturopathic doctor can shed more light as to why you are suffering from this condition. Your doctor from Edgemont Naturopathic Clinic can recommend ways to treat your condition and stop it from progressing.
