Losing hair every day is normal to every person. This occurs when your hair gets wet during bath or after bath when drying your hair or when giving it a good look with brush. The hair loss being experienced is about fifty to one hundred hair follicles a day on the average. Losing hair is but part of the hair growing cycle. Even if you lose some it can be replaced by a new one soon enough. Hair loss is not only experienced by men but women as well.
One of the culprit of hair loss in women is telogen effluvium or the shedding of the hair, an abnormal happening after pregnancy, a major surgery, a drastic weight reduction to be able to regain a nice figure and if she suffered severe stress. Excessive shampooing, tight styling and too much brushing of the hair can also lead to hair loss in women.
Taking certain medications like antidepressant, beta blockers and nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs may have also its side efects that may lead to hair loss. When telogen effluvium strikes anyone, the hair changes faster than the usual process of passing from its growing phase into the resting phase and finally into the shedding phase.
Women affected by telogen effluvium usually have to notice such hair loss six weeks to three months thereafter a stressful incident. Worst, she may lose a large amount of hair at the height of the growth process.
In the treatment of telogen effluvium, necessary tests are needed. The doctors may however ask the patient questions what she has experinced in life lately. Then, he may proceed to search for a small "club-shape" bulbs on the roots of the fallen hair. This bulb signifies that the hair has completely gone through its cycle of growth and shedding may have been accelerated because of the stress.
