Am I experiencing hair thinning and loss?
Hair thinning and loss can be caused by a variety of factors, ranging from genetics to lifestyle choices. If you are worried that your hair is thinning or receding, it’s critical that you consult with an experienced provider to decide the underlying cause. There are treatments available for hair loss, but it is critical to start them early in order to maximize success. Here are just some of the common signs of hair thinning and loss:
- Excessive shedding: If you’re noticing more hair in your brush than usual, or strands coming out when you shampoo, this could be a sign of thinning.
- Receding hairline: A receding hairline is often one of the first signs of male pattern baldness. If you notice your hairline gradually receding, consult with a doctor.
- Thinning crown: If you notice that your hair is thinning at the crown of your head, this could be a sign of female pattern baldness.
- Widening part: Another common sign of hair loss is a widening part. If you used to have a small part and now it is much wider, this could indicate hair loss.
