6 Most Common Causes of Hair Loss Named

Increased hair loss may be linked not only to hair care or age-related changes, but also to internal problems in the body. This is warned by specialists in the fields of dermatology and trichology.

As reported by BAKU.WS citing Russian expert Yekaterina Anpilogova, one of the most common causes of hair loss remains chronic stress. Prolonged tension and elevated cortisol levels can disrupt the hair growth cycle, leading to noticeable diffuse hair loss several months later.

According to the specialist, deficiencies in iron and vitamin D also have a negative impact, as they impair the nutrition of hair follicles and slow down growth. Experts emphasize that selecting supplements without blood tests is risky, as it may lead to a new imbalance.

Medical professionals also draw attention to the role of endocrine and autoimmune disorders. Certain thyroid diseases and alopecia areata can cause hair brittleness and loss, requiring specialized treatment.

As an additional risk factor, specialists point to strict diets and unbalanced nutrition. When there is a lack of calories and nutrients, the body cuts back on resources, and hair growth is often one of the first things to suffer.
