The imbalance of thyroxine hormone reduces the growth of hair at the root, therefore the falling hair doesn’t get replaced by new hair which causes balding or thinning of hair. Unwanted Stress: It’s a fact that excessive physical or mental stress affects the growth of hair and results in shedding of hair in huge amounts. Stress can increase the secretion of androgen (i.e. a male hormone) in the body, which causes excessive hair fall or thinning. A sudden trauma, surgery, high fever, accident or shock can also stop the growth of hair resulting in temporary loss of hair. Hormonal Imbalance: A variety of health issues may often cause your hormone levels to go haywire. In females, estrogen hormones play a significant role in stabilising the hair growth cycle. The secretion of this female hormone is erratic during pregnancy, childbirth, menopause or even if one is suffering from thyroid issues, which may ultimately cause alopecia, scalp infections, patchy hair loss, trichotillomania, etc. Nutritional Deficiency: A diet deficient in essential vitamins and minerals is also responsible for the loss of hair. Iron is extremely necessary for producing hair cell protein. Lack of it can cause premature hair loss. Vitamin B12 is important for the production of RBC and oxygen flow in the body. A diet being poor in vitamin B12 food sources can also lead to excessive hair loss and hair thinning as due to the lack of oxygen to the hair follicles, the hair shafts loosen and start falling off.
