Loss of Hair
Loss of hair is not life threatening but few afflictions can cause people as much anguish as the loss of hair. Hair is celebrated throughout the world to signify beauty and youth. The loss of hair can start in men as early as 16 years old and is usually genetic in nature. Hair loss can be inherited from either the mother or father's side of the family. Women can also inherit the gene for hair loss as well as being vulnerable to more causes than men. Other contributing factors for women can be a hormonal imbalance, medications, pregnancy, illness and stress. The good news is that you can take action against the loss of hair.
You will not notice that you are experiencing loss of hair until you have lost a significant amount of hair. Once you have lost 50% of your original amount of hair (100,000 hairs), balding or thinning will be noticeable. Hopefully, you will not wait until you have lost that much hair to take action.
It is advisable to seek out a dermatologist or a hair transplant specialist to ask what you can do to stop or restore your hair. Once you have determined your cause of hair loss, you will have a good chance of improving your situation. The loss of hair is traumatic but there are remedies that are available.

-
Propecia (Men only)
-
Rogaine
-
Laser Light Therapy (Laser Comb)
-
