@onde Hello, Female alopecia is often quite distinct from male hair loss. The common culprits can be genetic, stress-induced (dieting, surgery, childbirth, etc.), medical conditions (thyroid disorders, anemia, chronic conditions, etc.), as well as direct damage (hair coloring, hair products, hair styling, etc.).
Here are some tips to keep your hair and scalp healthy:

Washing your hair daily can strip it of protective oils. Wash your hair every other day and once or twice a week during the dry winter months. Use a mild moisturizing shampoo Try not to blow dry your hair as excessive heat can damage the hairs and follicles. But if you must, keep it at a cool temperature and hold it at a comfortable distance from your head. Avoid hair products such as spray creams, gels, or lotions as they may clog the hair follicles and damage the hair themselves. Avoid hair coloring, perming, and straightening as the chemicals and heat damage the hairs as well as your follicles. Eat healthily and exercise.
You may also consult a dermatologist or physician specializing in hair care to be evaluated and discuss your options. Thanks!

@mayes-0 Hello, the Possible risk of hair transplantation is similar to any other surgical procedure. Hair transplantation is usually regarded as safe. You may experience pain, swelling, and inflammation of the scalp for a minute, hours, or only for a few days after the procedure. This is a common side effect of surgery during the initial recovery period, and you don’t need to worry. There are two different hair transplant procedures. Both procedures involve the surgeon cleaning the scalp, injecting anesthetics, and then proceeding with either of the two methods: Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE), Follicular unit transplantation (FUT), also called Follicular Unit Strip Surgery (FUSS). Please talk to your dermatologist to know which one will be better. Thanks!

@dahlia Hello, The hot weather of summer makes your hair dry, brittle, and vulnerable to breakage, which is why your hair fall increases a bit in summer. The summer heat dehydrates your body, making your scalp dry and itchy. When you repeatedly scratch your scalp so hard, it can damage hair follicles or slows down hair growth which eventually makes your hair weak and thin. Here are a few things that you can try-

Try massaging your hair with warm coconut oil Take a nutritious diet Drink more liquids to maintain body hydration Apply aloe vera juice to the hair Deep conditioning Keep your scalp clean and dry. Reduce using blowers or dryers to dry your hair and heat styling If your hair fall doesn’t reduce even after trying these remedies then please talk to your dermatologist as it can be a symptom of a disease like a thyroid. Thanks.

@tanner Hello, no need to worry postpartum hair loss is normal. Postpartum hair loss occurs after childbirth because of the sudden change of hormones in your body, particularly the change between progesterone and estrogen. During pregnancy, the body increases the amount of estrogen it produces which signals more follicles to enter the growing phase than the resting phase of the hair growth cycle. During this time, you may experience fuller, thicker hair. You may also notice that your hair grows significantly faster during pregnancy than before. After childbirth, estrogen levels drop the hair follicles enter the resting phase, fewer hairs grow, and the hair begins to shed.
You can prevent post-partum hair loss by exercising regularly, taking a healthy diet, and taking postpartum vitamins and supplement prescribed by your doctor. Thanks!

@hely PCOS or polycystic ovary syndrome is a hormonal disorder common among women. Women with PCOS may have infrequent or prolonged menstrual periods or excess male hormone (androgen) levels. The ovaries may develop numerous small collections of fluid (follicles) and fail to regularly release eggs. PCOS hair loss occurs due to an increase in the male hormone (known as androgen) in the body. These excess androgens trigger hair thinning on the scalp. However, there is not complete baldness as seen in men. The major hormones that play a vital role are testosterone and androstenedione. Androgen levels in women are much lower than in men so when the ovaries turn into cysts and then produce too much of these, they can block the hair follicles. The affected hair becomes thinner in diameter, shorter in length. Hair loss due to PCOS lasts as long as androgens block your hair follicles, and DHT binds your hair follicle receptors and cause hair loss.

@unshula Hello, yes it is possible. castor oil is very astringent in nature, using it wrong can cause irritation to the scalp skin. This irritation could even result in hair loss because of excess sensitivity and dryness. Castor oil hasn't been found to do anything substantial for hair growth. But there are some effects that may indirectly help your beard hair grow. Its ability to fight off bacteria or fungal growth on the skin may help protect your follicles from damage, which can keep your hair healthy and promote hair growth. You should talk to your dermatologist. Thank You.

@ella-0 Yes, it helps you in controlling your hair fall. seeds are rich in folic acid, Vitamin A, Vitamin K, and Vitamin C, and are a storehouse of minerals such as potassium, calcium, and iron. Fenugreek seeds also have high protein and nicotinic acid content, which are known to be beneficial against hair fall and dandruff, and in treating a variety of scalp issues like dryness of hair, baldness, and hair thinning. It contains large amounts of lecithin, which hydrates the hair and strengthens the roots or hair follicles. The seeds also help in moisturizing the hair and bringing back the luster and bounce.

@theodor Hello, Hair loss early in pregnancy can be related to hormones, stress, or underlying health issues. Some lose hair, and some notice their hair becomes shinier and stronger. This is caused by higher levels of estrogen, which can stimulate hair follicles. Others may find that their normally curly hair becomes straight or vice versa.
Preventing hair loss may not always be possible, but there are certain behaviors that may make a difference. Two things can help you have a healthy diet and lifestyle choices. Eating a whole foods diet consisting of plenty of fresh fruits and vegetables, healthy meats, and eggs, with limited processed and sugary foods, is a great first step. This kind of diet will give you more energy and keep anemia at bay. Maintaining a lifestyle that includes a daily dose of fun and relaxing activities can also help you manage stress, an excess of which can aggravate autoimmune conditions and thyroid disorders. , hair loss is a normal part of pregnancy, particularly during the postpartum period. It will normally resolve with time, usually between six months and a year.

@urika Hello, Yes, Rosemary oil stimulates hair growth and slows graying. Olive oil is best known for its nourishing benefits. olive oil to your scalp will help to prevent dandruff, fungus, and other scalp issues that lead to dry, flaky skin. Castor oil stimulates blood flow thus helping speedy and healthy hair. Using olive oil for hair growth can help you get long and thicker hair faster. It has several benefits repairing damaged hair. Castor oil is also said to moisturize the scalp, ease dandruff, and leave your hair smooth and shiny. When applied to the scalp, it's purported to enhance the health of the hair follicles and, in turn, promote hair growth. Just applying oil will not help in hair growth. First, we have to rule out the cause, as there are many things like hormonal imbalance, thyroid, and deficiencies, So without treating the cause and just applying oil is of no use. To know about the hair treatment and hair care routine, consult the dermatologist.

@ankur-0 Hello, Castor oil is a great base oil. However, it is extremely thick and viscous and is also considered highly cooling. In certain cases of hair loss, where the scalp has a layer under the surface, applying castor oil may block out the sprouting of new hair by clogging the follicles of the scalp. This could be why you are losing hair. I would suggest you stop using castor oil and seek medical help.

@radivyani Hello, I would like to share my experience with using castor oil. I used castor oil for about four months. I haven’t seen much difference in terms of hair growth but after using castor oil my hair fall is reduced. You can try castor oil for months as Castor oil has a number of medicinal, industrial, and pharmaceutical uses. Castor oil can moisturize a dry, irritated scalp. Castor oil increases blood flow to the scalp, which promotes healthier hair. Castor oil's antibacterial and antifungal properties can reduce dandruff. Castor oil contains omega-6 fatty acids—a type of essential fatty acid that promotes hair growth and reduces inflammation in the hair follicle. If you’re interested in using castor oil for hair growth, try rubbing just a few drops of the oil into your scalp. As it is thick, use it with a carrier oil like coconut oil.

@dimple-mehra Hello, This occurs usually two to three months after an illness like dengue, typhoid, etc. This may continue for a few days to weeks. The hair usually comes back and grows normally after this episode. If very severe or persists for a longer duration, it may be worthwhile visiting a qualified dermatologist.
Maintain a healthy diet with vegetables, fruits, and proteins. Avoid harsh shampoos and avoid shampooing daily.

@asmita Yes, deficiencies like vitamin b12 and vitamin D do cause hair loss. Vitamin D stimulates the hair follicles to grow. Vitamin D plays a role in the creation of new hair follicles. Hair follicles are the tiny pores from which new hairs grow. New follicles may help hair maintain thickness and prevent existing hair from falling out prematurely. If you want thick and voluminous hair, your diet needs to have enough vitamin B12 and vitamin D.
