August 18 National Hair Cover Day

The "hair loss crisis" is coming? Don't panic first, you need to learn about some "truth" of hair loss and hair care. Don't "step on" some misunderstandings. According to a survey of epidemiological research on Peking University, the prevalence of male and male hair loss is as high as 21.3%. However, many people do not have enough scientific cognition of hair loss. What are the causes of hair loss? How to simply determine whether there is a problem with hair loss? How to correctly cope with hair loss?

Is it normal or abnormal for hair loss?

Hair loss refers to the phenomenon of hair loss. We have hair loss every day, and the normal hair that falls off normally is a hair period of hair. Because degeneration enters the dynamic balance when the degeneration enters the period and the hair that enters the growth period, it can maintain a normal number of hair. Therefore, hair loss does not mean that existence exists For hair loss, only the hair is abnormally or excessively falling off, that is, pathological hair loss is the disease.

How to judge pathological loses? If the following four situations occur, you need to pay special attention to it. The first situation is to continue a large amount of hair loss, with more than 100 hair loss daily, and the time lasts more than 2 to 3 months; the second case is that there is no large amount of hair loss, but the hair growth is slow, resulting in the more the total amount is, the more the total amount is The less coming, the more typical is the male androgens (referred to as "male bald"), also known as the seborrheic hair loss, which is the atrophy of the spiny caused by therogens, which gradually forms baldness; Hair -trait changes, such as the hair becomes soft and easy to break, or the hair falls off one by one, which is typical. The fourth case is accompanied by some other symptoms while taking off hair, such as obese, irregular menstruation, irregular menstruation, irregular menstruation, irregular menstruation , Noodles, acne, or some other diseases. If this situation occurs, it is necessary to consider that it may be a systemic system. For example, the above situation may be the manifestation of endocrine symptoms of polycystic ovary syndrome.

As mentioned above, there are many types of hair loss, so the cause of hair loss is also complicated. The most important thing is genetic factors, with the history of hair loss, such as their ancestors, parents or uncle and other direct relatives have the phenomenon of hair loss, then the chance of hair loss will increase relatively. The second is the disorders of endocrine or immune system, which can easily cause hair loss. In pathological hair loss, most of them are male bald. The male and bald are mainly male androgens that belong to the endocrine system. Patients with sickness, such as lupus erythematosus, may cause hair loss. There are other patients with immune systems such as rheumatoid arthritis and dermatitis, and patients with immune system diseases may increase hair loss. Third, excessive mental stress can also lead to hair loss, such as irregular life staying up late, or continuous work that has been constantly, high -intensity, and mental stress. Fourth, the impact of taking medicine. For example, patients often cause a lot of hair loss when taking chemotherapy drugs and receiving anti -tumor biological agents. Fifth, bad living habits and nursing habits, such as excessive hot dyeing, exposure of hair, or excessive cleaning, may cause hair loss due to damage to hair quality.

Some misunderstandings need to be guarded

What are the awareness misunderstandings for the public?

Some hair loss people think that their parents also have hair loss, so they cannot be cured. In fact, genetic hair loss is not "destined", and intervention can be treated as soon as possible.

Some people want to treat hair loss "once and for all." However, continuous treatment is the key. In clinically, some male patients, the treatment is not obvious for one or two months, and gives up directly. The regeneration of hair is a slow process, and it cannot be closely profitable. In addition, for hair transplantation, transplantation only guarantees that your transplanted hair continues to grow. It is necessary to continue to cooperate with drug treatment to ensure that native hair does not fall off and long -term good hair appearance.

In addition, some hair loss people will "be sick and seek medical treatment." Do not choose some so -called ancestral prescriptions, especially some treatment methods without efficacy research, but will delay normal treatment. You should go to a regular hospital as soon as possible.

Some people are too worried about the side effects of the treatment of hair loss. Even many patients did not dare to treat the adverse reactions of the drug manual. In fact, the incidence of most adverse reactions is relatively low in regular hair loss therapy drugs. The side effects are 0.1%to 1%of the small probability event, so you don't need to be too cautious.

It is worth noting that while beware of misunderstandings, the following three points should be paid to the prevention and control of hair loss: first, believe in science. Regarding hair loss, especially male baldness, it is basically impossible to heal before 2006. At present, with the development of medicine, we have entered a scientific era. Any abnormal changes in the body will from genes to molecular to cells, from physiological to pathological to pathology. There is a comprehensive understanding. Taking male baldness as an example, medicine has already mastered the culprit of dihydrology. Through non -Naruramine and other drugs, dihydrochotheetts can be suppressed. Therefore, it can be treated with scientific methods. Second, early intervention. In particular, patients with a history of genetic medical history can be cured in time when they realize some signs in time. Third, insisting on treatment, on the one hand, it is a process. It takes at least 3-6 months, or even half a year to one year. On the other hand, do not stop the medicine immediately after birth. Results, continue to take systematic medicine.
