What Causes Hair Loss?

There are many possible causes of hair loss. Understanding the underlying factor is crucial in selecting the best hair loss treatment. Some of the most common causes include:

  • Hormonal Changes: Pregnancy, menopause, thyroid disorders and Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) can all disrupt the hair growth cycle. This can lead to thinning or shedding.
  • Autoimmune Conditions: Alopecia Areata is an autoimmune disorder where the immune system mistakenly attacks hair follicles, causing sudden hair loss.
  • Medical Conditions and Medications: Certain illnesses, infections and treatments such as chemotherapy can trigger temporary or permanent hair loss.
  • Chronic Scalp Conditions: Skin disorders like psoriasis or seborrheic dermatitis can contribute to excessive hair shedding.
  • Genetic Hair Loss: Androgenetic alopecia, also known as male or female pattern baldness, is hereditary and can begin at any age.
  • Lifestyle and Stress: Poor nutrition, stress, and drastic weight loss can negatively impact hair health.

If you are unsure about the cause of your hair loss, visiting one of our hair loss clinics in Sussex can provide clarity and guidance on the most effective treatments.
