Hair loss a genetic problem?

Post by sarajames » Wed Dec 31, 2014 9:20 pm

I never thought I will have hair loss problems until 2 months back when I saw a lot of hair in my comb. My mother had hair loss issues when she was younger and needed hair loss treatment to solve the it. . Now, I think it might be genetically issue that I am also suffering with similar hair issues. At first, I tried natural methods and used aloe vera and oil often but it didn't solve the problem. I am going to consult with hair specialist Dr. Simmons of chtc.ca in Toronto. I am worried about what he is going to say. Does anyone have any advice for me? Any other method to try and control hair loss?

Yes Hair loss is a genetic problem, but there are various solutions to deal with it. Like you can consult a good dermatologist and discuss this with it so that he can accordingly suggest you about the medication for this. This would definitely lessen the percentage of hair loss. Apart from this you can make use of natural human hair extensions for to add volume and style to your hair instantly .

I agree with the previous post that you should seek medical advice on how best to treat hair loss. However I would strongly disagree with the fact hair extensions are a good idea to use if you want volume etc. After having extensions myself and suffering from androgenetic alopecia I would strongly dissuade anyone from this. People with androgenetic alopecia need to protect the roots and follicles of the hair. Extensions put unnecessary strain on the roots and make the hair weaker. To build volume try some organic dry shampoo which is available on the Internet, feelunique.com sell a good and it's coloured too so hides some of the scalp. Good luck

Yes i also agreed with that hair loss is genetic problem. Hair loss treatment can be done by taking propecia 5 mg pill along with minoxidil lotion which should be applied on scalp for improving hair growth.
