- 2.2., if the hair falls out, this is normal - every hair has its own life cycle, after which it( hair) dies off, and a new one appears instead. For a day a person loses 50 to 100 hairs, which is quite natural.
And how in this case to determine that the problem really is and you run the risk of losing your magnificent head of hair? It's very simple: you need to run a test.
The essence of the test consists in a close examination of the fallen hair.
If there is a light bulb on the tip, then you can calm down, because it is a hair that was measured naturally as a result of the regeneration of the hairline.
After that, do not wash your head for several days, then grab it with your hands and pull the hair in the area of the temples. In this case, a few hairs will fall out, which should be carefully laid on a piece of paper. A similar procedure is performed with other parts of the head about five times.
Next, count the remaining hairs. If there are less than fifteen, then it's okay with you. If there are more, then there is an excess of the norm and the phenomenon should be given special attention.

Anagenic alopecia
Sudden loss of the hairline, often due to the influence of powerful medicinal or chemical preparations, less often - radiation. By the way, it is with this baldness that cancer patients come after chemotherapy. Usually, the functioning of the hair follicle is restored with time.
In view of the fact that hair growth resumes after the disappearance of negative factors, there is no specific treatment for the problem.
Please note! For an accurate diagnosis it is necessary to consult a qualified specialist, since there are many causes of baldness.
Cause of hair loss on the head of women
Impaired immunity can cause hair loss. This can occur with a weakening of the body or functioning at an accelerated pace. So, many hair fall out after childbirth or when breastfeeding. Moreover, airway disease( mainly infectious) leads to baldness. By the way, because of this hair can fall out and men. The problem is solved. Go to the doctor, find out what means should be taken to normalize the immune system. Do not get involved in diets, instead, go in for sports - so you strengthen your body and heal from illnesses. In summer, go to sea to temper the body and provide it with vitamin D. Happens in both women and young girls. Hair can fall out due to negligent attitude towards one's own health( in winter a person walks without a hat, in summer spends a lot of time in the open sun). Do not forget about the headgear. Women may appear due to excessive entrainment with various diets or severe loss of blood on critical days. Permanent starvation, as well as its consequences( anemia, lethargy) are all symptoms of a lack of iron. For a complete restoration of the hairline, normalize the iron balance. Drink a course of vitamins, supplement your diet with iron-containing food( beef meat, fish, eggs, pomegranate juice and rye bread). The environmental situation can also have an effect on the hairline. Dirty air, strong radiation background, various precipitations in combination with poor nutrition - all this negatively affects the hair and general condition of the body. Ideally, you must move to a more favorable( in terms of ecology) region. And if this is impossible for one reason or another, then try to eat only pure foods, prevent chronic ailments and stress. Thanks to this, you can easily transfer external aggressive effects. Some medicines have an effect on the scalp, in particular on the hair. The chemotherapy mentioned above is considered to be the most serious, but not so cardinal measures can lead to baldness - the problem can arise because of taking high-pressure medications, contraceptives, diuretics or steroid drugs, antidepressants or even ordinary aspirin. After the treatment, the hair will be restored( except for cancer tumors).Do not discontinue treatment without first consulting a physician! Sometimes hair loss begins because of frequent stressful situations. The first "swallows" can appear even after the woman is a little nervous. Unconditionally, if it is a matter of single stress, then the hairline will soon recover, but if such situations happen often, the vessels in the head region narrow, the circulation of blood weakens, and the hair begins to fall more intensively. The problem can be solved without the help of antidepressants. Drink mint tea - it will relax you, calm you down. Take a bath with chamomile or mint. In addition, after work try to get enough sleep, since permanent fatigue is also one of the causes of stress.
Alopecia can begin as a result of hormonal disorders. The problem arises when imbalances of certain hormones. For example, the described phenomenon is often observed with an excessive amount of testosterone( mainly after the first sexual experience, childbirth, pregnancy or menopause).In addition, baldness can cause diabetes and dysfunction of the endocrine system. Address to the endocrinologist, let he will check up shchitovidku and will make all necessary analyzes of a blood. After the diagnosis is made, you should be prescribed funds that will restore not only the scalp, but also the endocrine system. As a rule, the duration of treatment does not exceed 24 days.
Quite often, alopecia is observed with a deficiency of vitamins and beneficial microelements, which is especially noticeable during the spring hyper- or avitaminosis. Even smoking and frequent use of alcoholic beverages "eat" a part of vitamins, which help the body in the fight against intoxication. In the spring, contact the therapist to prescribe a vitamin complex. Eat a lot of vegetables and fruits, in addition you can use some trace elements. They( for example, dermatitis, seborrhea) can also cause the described problem. The reasons for the appearance of dermatitis are several - external pathogens, allergies, etc. If dermatitis occurs, consult a physician to determine the cause. No masks or herbs in this case will not help. In the beginning it is necessary to cure the disease itself. Another reason for baldness is insufficient blood circulation, which can occur with some common diseases( for example, with osteochondrosis) or frequent use of beverages containing caffeine. Because of this, the blood vessels narrow. Drinking alcohol( especially cognac) also affects the scalp. Drink no more than two cups of coffee a day, go in for sports, walk daily, rest as much as possible.
