HAIR LOSS, (tuo fà)

Both men and women associate their hair very closely with their looks and are very self-conscious about hair loss, even when it is very minor. Few of us realize that at any one time, only 90 per cent of our hair is growing normally, while 10 per cent of it is in a resting phase. Every two to three months, the resting hairs fall out so that new hair can take their place. During pregnancy, the rise in estrogen in our bodies promotes hair growth and reduces hair loss. This change in the hair’s regular cycle can delay the loss of the “resting” hairs so that it happens all at once later. Almost half of all women experience excessive shedding of hair one to five months after pregnancy. This delayed hair loss usually peaks three to four months after delivery, as the hair follicles rejuvenate themselves. Hair loss returns to normal rates within six to twelve months.

Sometimes, abnormal hair loss during hormonal changes (Ripening the Fruit, stopping oral contraceptives or other hormone therapies, miscarriage or stillbirth, abortion or a hormonal imbalance) can be due to vitamin or mineral deficiencies.
