จริงหรือไม่ ไขความเชื่อเรื่องผมร่วง

<p>When you first notice unexplained hair loss, many people may lose confidence and start looking for solutions to restore their hair to its original thickness and darkness. Amid the information about <span style="color: #00826a;"><strong>“hair transplantation”</strong></span> scattered across the internet, how can we be sure that the information found is reliable? The Beauty Center at Phyathai 2 Hospital would like to invite you to find out which information is true and which is false.</p>
<h4></h4>
<h2><span style="color: #00826a;">Is hair loss really caused by genetics?<span style="color: #00826a;">?</span><strong><br />
</strong></span></h2>
<p>True! Genetics is the number one cause of hair loss. If your family has a history of hair loss, be cautious as you may have inherited hidden genes from your parents. It is also possible that your grandparents passed down genetic traits to the younger generation. Hair loss caused by genetic inheritance is a complex issue that requires careful consideration.</p>
<p>In addition, hair loss can be caused by various factors such as stress, scalp infections, scalp fungus, dandruff, thyroid disease, syphilis, cancer, seborrheic dermatitis, drug allergies, and acne medication, among others.</p>
<h4></h4>
<h2><span style="color: #00826a;">Does using chemical hair dye, coloring, or styling cause hair loss?<strong><br />
</strong></span></h2>
<p>False! Using chemical hair styling products that meet FDA standards will not cause hair loss or will cause very minimal hair loss. On the other hand, products that are not FDA-approved or using large amounts of chemical hair dye or bleaching agents may weaken the hair strands and cause them to break easily.</p>
<h4></h4>
<h2><span style="color: #00826a;">Does wearing a hat all the time cause hair loss?<strong><br />
</strong></span></h2>
<p>False! We may be familiar with images of people with hair loss or baldness who often wear hats regularly. In reality, wearing a hat does not cause hair loss unless it is worn all the time to the point of causing fungal infections. Additionally, tight braiding or wearing wigs for too long can also cause hair breakage and loss.</p>
<h4></h4>
<h2><span style="color: #00826a;">Does combing hair 100 times a day help make hair beautiful and strong?<strong><br />
</strong></span></h2>
<p>False! Combing hair 100 times a day may cause hair loss, dryness, or split ends because the hair strands are subjected to more friction, which is like damaging the hair. Proper combing should be gentle, without pulling the hair, and combing slowly throughout the scalp.</p>
<h4></h4>
<h2><span style="color: #00826a;">Does washing hair frequently cause hair loss?<strong><br />
</strong></span></h2>
<p>False! Generally, hair should be washed once a day. Some people believe that washing hair frequently causes more hair loss than usual, but in reality, it often causes the scalp to dry out and leads to dandruff. For those who avoid washing their hair for fear of hair loss, not washing for a long time may cause hair loss of up to 200 strands, more than the average of 100 strands per day, but it is still within the normal range.</p>
<h4></h4>
<h2><span style="color: #00826a;">Does pulling your own hair cause patchy hair loss?<strong><br />
</strong></span></h2>
<p>True! Observe if you tend to pull your hair repeatedly or throughout the day. If you have these behaviors, it may cause patchy hair loss. People who frequently pull their own hair may be experiencing increased stress affecting their mental health and may have psychiatric symptoms without realizing it. “Trichotillomania” is one of the conditions that requires treatment and can be either conscious or unconscious, such as obsessive-compulsive disorder or depression.</p>
<h4></h4>
<h2><span style="color: #00826a;">Do contraceptive pills cause hair loss?<strong><br />
</strong></span></h2>
<p>True! However, oral contraceptive pills are not the main cause. The real cause is the hormonal changes of estrogen and progestin that stimulate hair loss. The severity depends on the brand of contraceptive pill or may occur during the initial period of switching brands. If you notice excessive hair loss, stop using the pills for 2-3 months, and the hair loss will improve.</p>
<h2><span style="color: #00826a;">Is hair loss caused by vitamin deficiency?<strong><br />
</strong></span></h2>
<p>True! The main vitamin necessary for the body to strengthen hair is Biotin or Vitamin H, found in foods such as liver, egg yolks, soybeans, milk, and peanut butter. In cases of vitamin deficiency, it can cause weak hair, thinning hair, color changes, and easy hair loss. Taking vitamins does not 100% create new hair but focuses on nourishing the hair roots to strengthen them and alleviate hair loss symptoms.</p>
<h4></h4>
<h2><span style="color: #00826a;">Does the shampoo you use affect hair loss?<strong><br />
</strong></span></h2>
<p>True! Choosing shampoo suitable for your hair type is important for hair loss prevention. In summer, choose shampoos that reduce oiliness or those containing antifungal agents. For dry hair, choose shampoos that focus on moisturizing. Shampoos that help reduce hair loss usually nourish the hair and balance the scalp to reduce hair loss problems. When using medicated shampoo for hair problems, if symptoms improve, gradually reduce the frequency of use and apply conditioner focusing on the hair ends.</p>
<h4></h4>
<h2><span style="color: #00826a;">Does using a laser comb really help hair become thick and dark again?<strong><br />
</strong></span></h2>
<p>True! The Laser Comb is a low-level laser treatment for thinning hair and hair loss. It helps stimulate the activity of hair follicle cells to produce new hair and addresses genetic hair thinning and hair loss. It is a safe device and is often used in combination with medication under the supervision of a specialist doctor.</p>


Besides genetics, hair loss can also be caused by various factors such as stress, scalp infections, fungi, dandruff, thyroid disease, syphilis, cancer, seborrheic dermatitis, drug allergies, and acne medication.
