Although you are at a young age, are your hair starting to fall out? Have you noticed that bends are gradually forming around your forehead? Find out what could be the reason for this. When asked, the appropriate drug. Paweł Żmuda-Trzebiatowski.
Why do bends appear at a young age?
Hello, I’m 20 years old. For several months I have noticed that my hair has started to fall out, it is not long, I trim it regularly, it falls out together with the bulbs. I play sports, I am on a diet that I support with supplements. I do not use any hair cosmetics such as varnishes, gels or hair gums, I wash my hair every two days because I get greasy quickly, I also struggle with dandruff.
My hair started to fall out not only, but also in the area of my forehead is starting to thin, I have the impression that I am starting to get bends. I don’t know how to brake hair loss, there are a lot of resources in pharmacies, but I would like someone to advise me which preparation or medicine will make me stop making bends.
My dad my age had thick hair, why should I problem with hair loss and meanders? Where do bends at a young age come from? Hair problems have been going on for several months now, I used not only vitamins, but also conditioners, shampoos, and the bends are still getting bigger, my hair is getting weaker. I can’t do it on my own, so I want to see a specialist doctor. Please give me a hint, what should I do?
Why do bends appear at a young age – the doctor answers
Dear sir, one of the causes of hair thinning at my age there are genetic factors. You mentioned that your father at that age had thick hair, but how is the situation shaped or shaped in your siblings, uncles or grandparents? I suggest asking in the family. Hormonal disorders are another cause of faster hair loss.
High testosterone levels also contribute to weakening and excessive hair loss. It should be borne in mind that an incorrect lifestyle – inadequate diet or lack of physical activity contribute to hair thinning. In the case of the formation of so-called bends, first of all, one should take into account genetic factors.
There are many preparations available on the market to stimulate hair growth, unfortunately most of them are of questionable effectiveness. It has been proven that the preparations contain minoxidil in their composition, stimulate hair growth and make it thicker. It is difficult for me to comment on your specific case, especially since you have not done any research so far.
I advise you to go to a dermatologist who, after diagnosing the cause, will be able to implement appropriate treatment. I warn you against visiting beauticians or cosmetologists. Diagnostics and treatment should be carried out by a specialist, i.e. a doctor, only later, after diagnosing the cause, you can go to a kind of hair strengthening therapies to cosmetologists.
You mentioned that you eat healthy and lead an active lifestyle, it is a pity that you did not provide more detailed information about your health, this is very important information for every doctor. Especially when it concerns chronic diseases and medications taken – some medications weaken the hair structure and cause hair loss. The attending physician will certainly order tests to make a diagnosis, although you must bear in mind that in the case of alopecia areata or andorogenous alopecia, treatment is difficult and long-lasting.
