What causes excessive hair loss?

I always use homemade curry leaves oil and amla hair masks, which helped control my normal hair fall. However, if your scalp has bald patches or extreme itching, please skip the home remedies and consult a skin specialist immediately.

My dermatologist explained that telogen effluvium is a major cause of sudden hair loss, often triggered by a severe infection, high fever, or sudden weight loss three months prior. He also recommended getting blood tests done for iron, Vitamin D, and B12.

When my blood pressure was uncontrolled, my hair fall increased significantly due to poor scalp circulation and stress. Proper daily walking, keeping my BP medication on track, and regular health checkups helped restore my hair health.

If you aren't eating enough protein, your hair is the first thing your body stops prioritizing. Make sure your daily macros are sorted, hit your protein goals, and keep your stress low through regular exercise.

Hair loss can stem from multiple internal factors like thyroid issues, hormonal changes, or nutritional deficiencies. Instead of trying expensive commercial shampoos, getting a professional evaluation from a dermatologist is the most scientific way forward.

Honestly, my love for spicy street food and lack of green veggies made my hair fall out in bunches. Once I added fresh fruits and iron-rich foods back to my diet, the hair fall finally slowed down!
