Disease-Related Hair Loss
Barbara Smith
Hair loss is a common condition that affects many men as well
as women. Often it is merely attributed to genetics and or a
hormonal change in one’s body. However, hair loss can also be a
result from other factors that should be taken into
consideration before you simply chalk it up to genetics. It is
possible to suffer hair loss as a result of a side effect from
another disease or a result from surgery. Hair loss can also
have dietary factors. It is important to be knowledgeable about
the effects that disease or surgery may have on your hair. You
will then be able to take the proper steps in regaining your
hair.
Skin disease is the first major cause of hair loss. There are a
variety of skin diseases that will result in the loss of
nutrients, minerals, and supplements cause the hair to fall out
rapidly. These skin diseases usually cause hair loss in one of
two ways. They either cause hair loss as a reaction to the
mechanisms of the immune system or because the disease causes a
lack of available nutrients for the hair. Additionally, diseases
such as lupus, cancer, diabetes can also lead to hair loss. In
the course of all three of these diseases, hair loss is a very
likely side-effect. Because the disease creates a resulting
nutrient imbalance, a side effect is hair loss. This side
effect is particularly common when the problem is more severe.
When you suffer hair loss as a result of disease or surgery, it
is typically either a side effect of the disease, or from excess
surgery or disease-related stress. This is especially common in
reaction to major surgery. In other instances, the hair loss
may result from the surgical procedure. Disease treatments such
as chemotherapy also commonly cause temporary hair loss.
No matter what the disease, disease-related hair loss is
normally temporary. Generally when the disease is cured and
your body regains its proper nutrient and hormone balance, the
hair begins to grow back at a normal rate. It does take time,
however, for the proteins and nutrients to begin to affect your
hair growth. It is very common to take between four to six
months before you regain a moderate amount of your hair. Making
sure that you are maintaining your proper nutrient balance that
and taking care of your scalp will help to ensure suffient hair
growth.
