WHY AM I LOSING HAIR at MY TWENTIES?
Bald at 20: Why am I losing hair at my twenties? No one imagines, start losing hair their twenties. This is usually a time of independence, smiles and new experiences, so it is a real surprise when there is more hair than usual on the brush or we notice a thinner strand of hair. But what is the root? Why is it that you are losing hair at your twenties?
GENES YOU CANNOT IGNORE
It is very common to believe that baldness develops with age, but the truth is that it can start at any time; And you will be surprised to know this, but studies show that a fifth of men experience hair loss before reaching the age of twenty and as the years go by, the receding hair line is increasingly noticeable.
This type of alopecia or baldness is known as a male or female pattern baldness (depending on the case), and is caused by a male hormone that stimulates the hormonal receptors in the hair follicle, causing the follicles to gradually shrink. With each cycle of hair growth, the hair will grow thinner, until it eventually will stop growing.
If what is described above seems familiar to you, I inform you that there are treatments to slow down the hair fall and strengthen the follicle. Minoxidil, Finasteride, Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP), Capillary Mesotherapy with Micro needlesa and Laser Therapy are very effective options to help you in this dilemma.
STRESS OUTCOME
Stress is an emotional condition that directly affects our physical state. Today, people experience it daily at work, school, family, economic pressures and much more now with the problems that the COVID-19 pandemic has generated in the world.
Although it may not seem like it, stress is the second most frequent cause, for hair loss in your twenties. The swing in the hormonal levels that causes stress, in the body, makes the hair growth cycle go into shock. Which means that your hair to goes into resting phase and eventually fall out.
The good news is that once the stress is gone and we are able to balance the emotions, the hair growth cycle returns to normal and the hair will grow without problem.
LOSING HAIR at my TWENTies? PAY ATTENTION TO HOW YOU EAT
With the modern “eco-friendly” trend and the emergence of new lifestyles that invade social networks and all kinds of media, the way in which society feeds has also change. Today, it is very common to have more than one vegetarian or vegan among our friends. The problem with this is that these lifestyles have already been directly related to hair loss, as a consequence of the nutritional deficiencies that they entail.
Iodine, which is found primarily in foods such as eggs, fish, or dairy, is necessary to produce a hormone that contributes to hair growth. Vitamin B-12 may also be in short supply in the vegan diet, causing hair to become brittle and dull.
If you are reading this and you are on a vegan diet, you may have noticed that the strand of your hair has become thinner and more brittle; so we recommend you make sure you are eating balanced, with fatty acids such as avocado, tofu, nuts and seeds.
