Hair Loss From Poor Nutrition?
my hair is falling out dramatically. i have suffered very poor nutrition and stress along with some drug use. what should i eat, take, and/or do to stop the loss?
The reason that we do not see hair loss from dietary causes in the United States is because we are well nourished and generally without vitamin deficiencies. In your situation, with a history of poor nutrition and stress, these alone can cause hair loss. To correct this, a proper diet should be followed with a professional dietician. If your hair loss has a pattern to it (front, top, or crown), it may be genetic — in which case, Propecia combined with a good diet correction might be your best bet. If the loss is generalized, the malnutrition and vitamin deficiencies (as well as other causes of this) must be properly investigated and professionally treated.
According to my mother (a pediatrician, a side of my head was exposed to ultraviolet rays during my 1st month of being born causing atleast a 3-5″ in diameter burn scar.
Im 33 now and I’ve been noticing a significant loss of hair in the last month and a half. Everytime i take a shower, a few strands fall off. when i wake up in the morning, i see strands of hair. I use gel everyday to cover my bald spot. Ive gained abit in weight and i occassionaly smoke.
What could be the problem??? Any advice would really help.
Thanks,
Ryan
