How hormonal changes affect the Women Hair!





1. Childbirth : During pregnancy, most women may notice their hair seems fuller  and do not fall out  as usually. That's because the high levels of hormones that keep resting hairs from falling out as they normally would. But, after childbirth, when hormone levels return to normal, those strands fall out quickly in the first 6 months.This can mean a surprising amount of hair loss at one time.  When your hormones are in balance again the hair will  fall less.

 2.The Pill and Other Medications : Hair loss can be  a potential side effect of birth control pills.  The hormones that suppress ovulation can cause hair to thin in some women, particularly those with a family history of hair loss. Sometimes hair loss begins when you stop taking the pill. Other drugs linked to hair loss include blood thinners and medicines that treat high blood pressure, heart disease, arthritis, and depression.

 3.Thyroid Problems : The thyroid is a gland at the front of the neck. It produces hormones that regulate many processes throughout the body. If the gland makes too much or too little thyroid hormone, the hair growth cycle may falter. But hair loss is rarely the only sign of a thyroid problem. Other symptoms include weight gain or loss, very dry skin or eczema, sensitivity to cold or heat, and changes in heart rate.

 4.PCOS : Women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) have a chronic hormonal imbalance. The body makes higher levels of male hormones than expected. This often causes extra hair to sprout on the face and body, while there is less hair on the scalp . PCOS can also lead to ovulation problems, acne, and weight gain. But sometimes thinning hair is the only  sign.

 5.Crash Diets : You may lose more than weight with a crash diet. People may notice hair loss 3-6 months after losing more than 15 pounds, but hair should regrow on its own with a healthy diet.If your diet is very low in protein or too high in vitamin A  you will shed some locks.

 6.Tight Hairstyles : Wearing cornrows or tight ponytails can irritate the scalp and cause hair to fall out. The same is true of using tight rollers. Let your hair down, and it should grow back normally.  Long-term use of these styles can cause scarring of the scalp and permanent hair loss.

 7.Cancer Treatment : Hair loss is an infamous side effect of two cancer treatments: chemo and radiation therapy. In their quest to kill cancer cells, both treatments can harm hair follicles, triggering dramatic hair loss. But the damage is almost always short-lived. Once the therapy is finished, hair usually grows back.

8.Extreme Stress : Extreme physical or emotional stress can cause a sudden shedding of one-half to three-quarters of the hair on your head. Examples include:
Serious illness or major surgery
Trauma involving blood loss
Severe emotional trauma
The shedding may last six to eight months.

How to Help your Hair Growth with Diet & Essential Oils

Image
Our eating habits directly influence the health of our hair. A deficiency of vitamin F (essential fatty acids), for example, causes a disruption in the keratin process of the scalp by stimulating the appearance of dandruff. Calcium deficiency causes hair to turn brittle. These are just examples of how the hair depends on sufficient amounts of nutrients to keep moisture and cohesion between its cells, giving them a healthy look. Healthy and shiny hair depends on vitamins and minerals found in many foods. Your diet should be rich in protein (meat, fish, eggs, yogurt), vegetables and fruits, oleaginous seeds (almonds, walnuts, cashews), legumes (beans, peas, lentils), and whole grains (oats, flax, rye). More critical than ingesting large amounts of a particular food, or vitamins such as zinc and copper, is to seek synergy between the vitamins and minerals. The ideal diet should be varied by rotating between different foods to ensure that we consume sufficient nutrients. Fruits and...

CANDIDA AND HAIR LOSS

Image
How a biological imbalance in our natural flora of the scalp can lead to Hair Loss Hair loss results from a combination of the following: 1. Genetic predisposition 2. Poor nutrition 3. Weak immune system 4. An environment that leads to an overgrowth of Candida fungus (Yeast) . 1. Genetic predisposition,Male and Female Pattern Baldness The most common cause of hair loss is a hereditary condition called male-pattern baldness or female pattern baldness. It usually occurs gradually and in predictable patterns — a receding hairline and bald spots in men and thinning hair in women. Pattern baldness is most common in men and can begin as early as puberty, and this type of hair loss may involve both hair thinning and miniaturization (hair becomes soft, fine and short).One cause of male pattern baldness is genetics, or having a family history of baldness, which influences the age at which you begin to lose hair, the rate of hair loss and the extent of baldness. ...

Why your Hair turns Grey and What you can do to Prevent.

Image
Fifty percent of the population has about 50% gray hair at age 50," says Dr. Anthony Oro, professor of dermatology at Stanford University. And like skin, hair changes its texture with age, says Dr. Heather Woolery Lloyd, director of ethnic skincare at the University of Miami School of Medicine. Caucasians tend to go gray earlier — and redheads earliest of all. Then Asians. Then African-Americans. Scientists haven't figured out why yet. Your hair doesn't turn gray — it grows that way. The change in hair color occurs when melanin ceases to be produced in the hair root and new hairs grow in without pigment. Our hair color comes from a pigment called melanin. When you’re young, special pigment stem cells called melanocytes inject pigment into keratin-containing cells. This keratin, a protein, makes up your hair and is responsible for giving it its color. As you age, melanin is reduced, which is why your hair turns gray and, ultimately, white (this means there’s no mela...
