Hair Loss Causes: What is Thyroid Hair Loss?




By Javier Fuller

Hair loss often starts undetected and predated on us like a wolf. And then one fine day we look into the mirror and are taken aback by what the mirror reflects back. We are left wondering as to when and how did the hairline, withdraw like cowardly troops!

So, if you are losing hair for no apparent reason whatsoever, the cause could be a thyroid condition. Though the most common causes for hair loss are genetic predetermination, medical treatments, medicines and hormonal changes, but they are not the only ones responsible. Among the other is thyroid condition.

Thyroid hair loss manifests itself in cases of hypothyroidism. This kind of hair loss can be easily distinguished from male pattern balding. Because, unlike male pattern baldness there is no bald patches caused but there is a uniform thinning of hair all over the head.
Those who suffer from hypothyroidism experience dry skin and fatigue. They also become abnormally sensitive to cold and suffer from depression and constipation. Therefore, if you have any of these symptoms and are losing hair, you must have yourself tested for thyroid condition.

Synthroid is the most common prescription medicine used for hypothyroidism. The medicine can cause hair loss as a side effect. So, if you are taking it, you should discuss the possibility of its causing the hair loss.

There are a few supplements available in the market including primrose oil supplements which can help check thyroid hair loss. Aromatherapy too works with some.

Some of the Ayurvedic medicines like brahmi amla oil and bhringaraj oil can also help. These oils are applied on the scalp gently. A regular application of it for three months or more helps hair growth.

If nothing works, the final remedy is hair transplantation. Little hair plugs are taken from the back of one's scalp and are planted on the bald areas. It takes a few months before you see your bald scalp growing your own natural hair. The procedure, however, is quite expensive, but is worth every penny you spend to get rid of the depressing condition.

A good cover of hair is the crown we are too much in love to do without. So, if it goes away, get it back.
