Everyone's hair has a cycle. You can read all about telogen effluvium. Traumatic events like anesthesia/surgery can cause hair loss for several months. And some of it is genetic. If your parents have great hair, chances are you will too. Sun fungus causes hair loss and I have heard 20% of the population has it but I am not 100% sure this is true.
I am female and I have been dealing with hair loss since I was in my 20's. I am in my 60's now and it took me 40 some years to figure out how to fix my problem. I take biotin daily and use Pura'd or premium organic shampoo. the bottle is partly empty when you get it and I fill the rest of the bottle with ketoconozole 2% shampoo I get from Thailand. This actually works for me. I have at one time or another tried all the suggestions in the article.
If you have hair loss, don't give up! Keep on looking for the answer.
My dermatologist recommends Women's Rogaine 5%. It has to be 5% to regrow and it takes months IF it is going to work on an individual. Also, high dosage iron pills may be necessary but only on dictor's orders as its dangerous to take too much iron if not needed.
Give yourself at-home scalp kneads. Kneading your head can fortify the blood stream to your scalp, which helps supplements get to your hair follicles all the more rapidly. Even better, make a friend give you a scalp rub.
Thanks, there are lots on the above list that I did not know enhances hair growth. I'd like to add
1. fresh ginger juice massaged into the scalp every other day and if it feels warm it is working - my Indian girlfriends swear by this they massage their husbands head & say it works.
2. Vit E oil massaged into scalp every evening, this is mentioned by How to Rub Vitamin E on the Scalp to Promote Hair Growth | LIVESTRONG.COM
