-hair fall is one of the most common problem affecting both males and females across the globe. We have around 100 thousand strands of hair which increases half an inch in length every month and keeps growing for 2 to 6 years till they enter relaxing stage. It is normal to lose 50 to 100 strands daily, but if the number exceeds too much, we should ascertain certain causes like: -

a) scalp infections
b) alopecia areata
c) thyroid disorders
d) stress
e) hormonal changes or disorder (pcos)
f) prolonged use of oral contraceptive pills
g) unhealthy lifestyle (poor diet, deficient water intake, pollution, usage of detergents and chemicals)
h) medicines for cancer treatment
i) pregnancy.
