How Much Hair Loss Is Normal?

Even though losing hair is a normal process, it’s unpleasant when we notice a clump of hair in the drain after showering. However, it can also be a sign of an underlying health condition.

If you’ve noticed your hair falling out, here is some information that could help determine if you should pay more attention to your health.

How Much Hair Loss Is Normal?

Depending on your hair type, overall health, and the everyday stressors you’re exposed to, losing 50–100 hairs daily is normal. This is because hair goes through different growth cycles, and falling out represents the end of that cycle.

What to Keep In Mind If You Have Hair Falling Out

You’ll find a lot of products marketed through promises of making your hair grow back. While this is in most cases impossible, there are hair loss products to help you, depending on what caused the problem in the first place.

Androgenic alopecia causes 95% of hair loss experiences in men

(Healthline)

Based on information from the American Hair Loss Association, this condition is the number one reason men go bald. The hair starts thinning and falling out due to the genetic oversensitivity to DHT, a testosterone byproduct.

Hereditary conditions are the most common triggers of hair loss

(Mayo Clinic)

Apart from these, hormonal changes, disorders, medication, or medical therapies can all cause your hair falling out. However, most of these are reversible, and with good hair care products and patience, your hair will start growing again.

A hair strand goes through two stages before it falls out.

(Medical News Today)

It’s normal for hair to fall out — it’s a part of a natural cycle. Estimation is that we have over 80,000 follicles on our heads, and a strand goes through two stages: growth (anagen) and resting stage (telogen), before they fall out.

Hair shedding lasts six to nine months.

(American Academy of Dermatology Association)

Hair shedding is an adjustment phase your body goes through after stressful events, medical conditions or treatments, during which it sheds more hair. Hair loss, on the other hand, happens when your hair follicle is no longer able to produce new hair growth.

Stressors are the number one reason for excessive head shedding

(American Academy of Dermatology Association)

Stressful situations, an unhealthy lifestyle, or significant life events are the biggest triggers of shedding, and they can sometimes happen months after the stressful event occurs. In the same way, weight fluctuation, surgeries, and giving birth also cause hair shedding as the body adapts.

Conclusion

Healthy hair is an important part of our self-image, and losing it can affect us greatly. Although many people try to deal with it on their own, there are professionals out there who can help you, and the sooner you seek help, the sooner your problem will be solved.
