What are the causes of hair loss?

If you think that you are beginning to lose your hair, or are just concerned about whether or not you are likely to, then you might have wondered exactly what the causes of hair loss are. The thing is that there are actually a variety of causes and of course, some of them are more likely to cause hair loss than others.

One of the most likely explanations for hair loss is that it ‘runs in the family’. If any of the men on your father’s side of the family have suffered from hair loss, then chances are that you have picked up the gene that will make this terrible thing happen to you as well.

One of the other reasons that you might find that you are losing your hair could be due to stress. This should never be underrated as a cause of hair loss as sometimes it doesn’t matter whether you are under a lot of mental, or a lot of physical stress, it could lead to you losing more hair than usual. Having said this, it is only usually the cause of hair loss temporarily and it is unlikely that you will go completely bald due to stress alone.

One other reason is something that you really can do nothing about at all and this is your age. As you get older, it doesn’t matter if you have no history of hair loss in your family and you are not under any stress, the chances of losing your hair are greatly increased. This is something that you will just have to accept as you grow old and although it might be annoying; you will just have to accept it.
