Stress and Hair Loss

/
0 Comments


       Your finances, job, health, children and relationships can all be large stressors on your life. It is important to know how these stressors may be having an effect on the health of your body and your hair. Some stressors may be easier to manage than others, but it is best to try and limit your stress no matter what problems you may be facing in your day to day life.

            The correlation between stress and hair loss is no myth. While there are many other reasons why you may be losing your hair, a large abundance of stress may still cause hair loss. Stress may cause your hormone levels to change which can lead to Telogen Effluvium. Telogen Effluvium is typically a form of hair loss that mostly occurs in pregnant women due to the rapid change of hormone levels associated with pregnancy. Also, stress induced hormone level changes may cause your hair follicles to stay in the resting period for a longer period of time. This imbalance may result in more of your hair falling out than normal a few months later to correct the imbalance caused by stress. While this form of hair loss may not be permanent it may still have a large impact on your hair thinning or falling out.

            Extreme amounts of stress may also lead to a form of Trichotillomania. Trichotillomania is the compulsive urge to pull out one's own hair leading to noticeable hair loss and distress that can be caused by anxiety or stress. Some people may pull their hair out as a way of coping with the stressors in their lives and in some severe cases may cause excessive hair loss.

            While you may never be able to rid your life completely of stress, there are a few tips you may use to try to limit the amount of stress in your life as well as learn how to deal with that stress. Try eating healthier, exercising and getting an appropriate amount of sleep each night. Living a healthier lifestyle and getting a good night’s sleep may limit the pressure of many of your stressors throughout the day. Also, find time for activities you enjoy to free your mind of the daily grind. It’s not about eliminating the stressors completely, but controlling them and not letting them control you.
