Hair Loss: Woman, Man, Adult, Child (signs, causes, treatment, prevention, remedies) (I treat cancer with chemo)

There are two main reasons one goes bald: they're either undergoing chemotherapy (temporary baldness; takes one or two years for the hair to grow back), or they inherited the condition from their predecessors, and are, therefore, completely bald (male/female pattern baldness; in a vast majority of cases permanent), but that doesn't mean you can't do something about your looks.

So, regardless of hair loss after chemo or a genetic hair loss, please note that various caps, hats, and scarves are avaliable, in many different colors, shapes, and sizes, and can, on a brighter note, make your wardrobe more interesting, and you can create a variety of styles that suit you.

This is merely an opportunity for you to be creative and different, by creating different styles that suit you. Why not try your hand in wig-making or, if that is too much of a bore, you can buy one. There are many wigs for hair loss and they are available in a rainbow of colors, and in a myriad of hairstyles, at your disposal.

Everyone loses some hair on a daily basis (about 40 to 100 hairs). It varies from person to person, but it's nothing unusual. It is natural, while washing or brushing your hair, that some of them fall out. However, if your hair loss is excessive, that is, the entire strands fall from your head every day, you might consider checking it with the doctor and he/she will tell you more about what causes hair loss in women or men, as the causes may be different.

Many people ask themselves "why does chemotherapy cause hair loss?" The answer: chemo affects your follicles because they have factors in their behavior that are similar to cancer cells. So, the cure detects them as a potential threat and attacks them.
Another frequent question is "how to stop hair loss during chemotherapy?" After you finish your treatment, it can take up to one year for your hair to grow back again.

Unfortunately,, many people don't know how to cope with hair loss during chemo. To feel comfortable with little to no hair within that period, you can cut your hair short, so that the hair loss can be minimally noticeable. Also. it will be easier for you to maintain the remaining hair, too.

In the majority of cases, hair loss is nothing to worry about. However, sometimes it may point to an underlying illness. If you suspect that this is the case, visit your doctor immediately. In any case, see a doctor regularly for illness prevention.

If your hair loss has rapidly increased with no reason, do not self medicate to avoid drastic side effects.

Anagen Effluvium is a condition when the hair follicles are attacked in some way, mostly when a person is subjected to chemotherapy.

But, as a treatment for hair loss after chemotherapy, you can always try to apply some home remedies that can be beneficial for your follicles.

Many people ask themselves "does stress cause hair loss?" or "what causes hair loss?" etc. The answer, unfortunately, can sometimes remain unknown. But, one thing is for sure - vitamins are such a blessing for our bodies! They improve, basically, every bodily function. But, be careful not to take too much of them, because taking too much of some vitamins can definitely bring harm. When it comes to the vitamin A in particular, do not take too much of it, because that will result in the opposite way, i.e. that will make the hair fall out. Here is the list of the vitamins and where you can find them:

• Vitamin A can be found in: veal liver, cooked; spices (paprika, cayenne, chili powder); dried apricots; sweet potato, cooked; carrots, cooked; dark leafy greens.

Vitamin A encourages a healthy production of sebum (biological skin fat) in the scalp of your head.

• Vitamin E can be found in: plant oils, spices (chili powder, paprika); sunflower seeds; almonds.

Vitamin E is good because it improves and encourages blood circulation in the scalp, thus providing the folicles (parts of skin which produce hair) with nutrients.

• Vitamin B can be found in: thimian; riboflavin; niacin; folate.

Vitamin B is good for your hair because it helps your hair maintain a healthy color.

• Vitamin C can be found in: salad; baked potatoes; citrus fruits.

Vitamin C is good because it helps your body with the production of collagen (the substance that makes your hair stronger). The deficiency of this vitamin reflects in the excessive dryness of your hair, or even its loss.
