Plastic Aesthetic and Reconstructive Surgery Specialist Dr. stated that it is normal to lose approximately 100 hairs a day due to various reasons when reaching adulthood. Mustafa Hasdemir said that more and longer hair loss is a sign of serious diseases. Hasdemir said, “Hair loss occurs due to genetic predisposition, hormonal and nutritional factors, systemic diseases, chemicals, scalp diseases, medications and stress. Although this type of hair loss can be reduced with PRP and mesotherapy treatments, hair transplantation may be required. Irregularities in the menstrual cycle, increased hair growth, increased acne, weight gain and hair loss may be due to a hormonal disease. In this case of hair loss, hormone tests and appropriate treatment will strengthen the hair and reduce hair loss. Another thing to consider is irregular and unbalanced nutrition, increased fasting periods, and vitamin and mineral deficiencies. Deficiency of vitamins and minerals, especially B12, vitamin D, folic acid, biotin, zinc and iron, can lead to hair loss. "Vitamin and mineral analysis should be done in hair loss, and if there is a deficiency, it should be replaced," he said.
"LOTS OF WATER SHOULD BE DRINKED"
Stating that some diseases can also cause hair loss, Hasdemir said, " It may be caused by thyroid gland diseases, rheumatic diseases, diabetes and adrenal gland diseases. Hair loss should be investigated comprehensively with examinations and tests, and if there is an underlying disease, it should be treated. Diseases such as psoriasis and eczema can increase hair loss. Treatment of this hair loss is possible by treating the underlying skin disease. Cosmetic products, which have been used excessively in recent years, increase the time the hair is exposed to chemicals. Frequent blow-drying, tight tying, dyes, and underwear may increase shedding. Cutting out these external factors stops hair loss. Hair combing does not cause hair loss if it is not done too vigorously, and it also increases blood flow to the scalp. Stating that excessive stress, depression, anxiety, psychosis and the drugs used in their treatment can also cause hair loss, Hasdemir said, “You should drink plenty of water regularly. It should be fed regularly. Zinc, iron, magnesium, vitamin A, vitamin C, calcium and biotin are essential for hair health. Washing your hair twice a week is sufficient. Frequent washing can increase hair loss. "Reliable cosmetic products and shampoos should be used," he said.
