Is Your Hair Fall Normal?
Losing 50–100 hairs per day is completely normal as part of the natural hair growth cycle. But when you notice visible thinning, a receding hairline, or patches of baldness, it is time to consult a dermatologist.
Common Causes of Hair Fall
- Androgenetic Alopecia: Genetic pattern baldness in both men and women
- Telogen Effluvium: Sudden shedding triggered by stress, illness, childbirth, or nutritional deficiency
- Alopecia Areata: Autoimmune condition causing patchy hair loss
- Scalp Infections: Fungal infections (tinea capitis) causing hair loss
- Thyroid Disorders & Anemia: Medical conditions leading to diffuse thinning
Proven Treatment Options
Minoxidil (Rogaine): Topical solution that stimulates hair follicles — first-line treatment for pattern hair loss.
PRP Hair Therapy: Platelet-Rich Plasma injections deliver growth factors directly to hair follicles, significantly reducing fall and promoting regrowth. Multiple sessions yield excellent results.
Nutritional Supplements: Biotin, iron, vitamin D, and zinc deficiencies are corrected through targeted supplementation.
Low-Level Laser Therapy (LLLT): Stimulates circulation and cellular activity in hair follicles.
