Genetics or Stress? What is Causing Your Hair Loss?

The fact that men suffer from hair loss isnt exactly newsworthy but discovering the cause of their loss can be life changing. Heredity is usually the culprit, and most men chalk it up to bad genes. What some men dont realize is that their hair loss isnt necessarily predetermined by genetics and that stress could be responsible.

Telogen effluviumis a condition triggered by a stressful situation or a traumatic experience like an accident, a severe illness, or an emotional life change. This condition can cause hair to simply stop growing or fall out. In other words, the stress forces hair follicles to sit in the resting phase, which will stop hair growth and eventually the affected hair could be lost months later.

If youve experienced a life-altering event and your hair begins falling out,do your best to minimize the source of stress. Focus on getting past the event and work towards healing. It is also important to get enough rest and eat right during this time. Finally, be sure to see aprofessional who can put your mind at ease and help you confirm the cause ofhair lossand give you real solutions.
