How to Avoid Hair Loss by Kerry L. Gray

Thirty million American women suffer from thinning hair and hair loss, yet little is written about it. Men wonder about it all the time, but girls do not usually think about it until it happens to them.

Hair is a secondary sexual characteristic and is very important to men and women. There are lots of causes of thinning hair and hair loss, but ninety percent of it is rooted in genetics. The good news is that hair loss can be treated with medication, and the sooner you see your doctor the better.

If your family physician cannot help you, look for a dermatologist or endocrinologist who specializes in hair loss. Thyroid malfunction, stress and chemotherapy are common causes. A doctor can help you overcome hair loss with medication and a specific regimen designed for you.

One big myth is that menopause contributes to hair loss in women. If this is happening to you, see your doctor as soon as you can. You do not have to live with hair loss and thinning hair. Take action and get some medical help for this common problem.
