Experts say it is normal that during a day between 50 and 100 hairs to be lost, however above this level you should consider it as a warning sign. A number of factors such as certain diseases or hormonal imbalances can contribute to hair loss. If you're worried about the number of hairs lost daily it is a must first to establish the cause of this problem for a proper treatment. Here are some of the possible causes which can cause excessive hair loss: 1. Thyroid diseases. Both hypothyroidism (when not producing enough thyroid hormone) and hyperthyroidism (when excess thyroid hormones are produced) can cause excessive hair loss and that due to hormonal imbalances. Hormones have an important role in regulating body functions, even hair growth. Treating these conditions will be able to control theproblem of hair loss as well. 2. Pregnancy. During and after pregnancy, hormonal imbalances specific to this period may lead to loss of a large number of hairs. Your body needs some time to rebalance the hormone levels after pregnancy and therefore new mothers often face this problem. However, this problem is temporary and usually requires several months for things to go back to normal. 3. Certain drugs such as anticancer drugs, some antihypertensive and retinoids can affect hair health. Also, oral contraceptives can cause hair loss when you first start the treatment, change them or stop taking them. Cessation of medication will solve the problem of falling hair. 4. Alopecia. These are diseases characterized by local or complete loss of hair and usually affect the scalp; may appear in other areas of the body as well. These are not diseases in medical terms however these conditions are stressful from psychologically view because of the negative aesthetic impact they have on the patient. The dermatologist will determine the treatment, depending on the type of alopecia. There are a large number of treatments and their effectiveness varies from case to case. Treating alopecia should take account of each case. 5. Physical or mental trauma. In this case, hair may start falling at an interval of 2-4 months from the time of the event, not immediately. 6. Emotional stress. If crossing a difficult period such as a divorce or financial problems, the signs can occur on a physical level. High levels of stress can cause temporary hair loss, but it can be controlled and the hair will regain its health. 7. Unbalanced diet. Mineral deficiency (iron, zinc), protein and calories results in inadequate hair nutrition that will start to fall due to weak roots. 8. Aggressive hair care. The use of hot styling appliances and styling products can damage the hair as well. 9. Seasonal changes. Hair loss is a seasonal disease and therefore in autumn and spring a large number of people are facing this problem. In this case, then hair loss will be offset by rapid growth. 10. Autoimmune disorders. Alopecia areata is often associated with certain autoimmune diseases such as diabetes or lupus. Hair loss caused by these conditions may be irreversible in some patients, but some treatments may be helpful.
