About "Hair loss"

Hair loss can be due to hormonal changes, heredity, or due to other underlying health conditions, and can affect the hair on the scalp or the entire body. Signs of hair loss are thinning of hair on the top of the head, bald spots, and excessive hair fall. Some tips to prevent hair loss are:

• Avoid using hot rollers and curling irons.
• Do not wear your hair in a tight braid or ponytails.
• Do not pull or comb your hair harshly.
• Cover your hair when you go out in the sun.
• A cooling cap can reduce the risk of hair loss during chemotherapy.

Topical Minoxidil is used to treat baldness and hair loss. Other medicines used are Finasteride and Dutasteride. Hair transplantation or laser therapy can also be used to prevent hair loss.
