Many people noticed that after the illness their hair fell out. This happens after a variety of situations, after severe stress, after childbirth or a prolonged increase in body temperature. After severe pneumonia, it also happens.
For some reason, this happens more often with women.
Our hair is constantly falling out. Every day we lose from 50 to 150 pieces. This is normal. Right now, about 10% of our hair has already decided to fall out or are thinking about it.
When a traumatic event or severe infection occurs, the body gives the hair a general command to fall out. And then about a third of the hair starts the process of hair loss.
Usually, the hair begins to crumble suddenly, but not during the illness itself, but two to three months after it. Therefore, many people forget what exactly happened to them, and why their hair fell out.
If, during the period of loss, take two fingers for a strand of hair at the roots and stretch it with your fingers to the ends, then more than four hairs will remain in the hand.
Hair thinns very quickly, but usually there is no complete baldness. This process captures less than half of all hair. But even half is enough to seriously ruin your life.
Most often, hair falls out from the front, sides and crown.
A dermatologist deals with such matters, so if possible, then ask him.
Usually, everything goes away by itself, and the hair begins to grow normally immediately after the person has recovered from the underlying disease. But it will take 6 to 12 months for the hair to recover to a decent look. It depends on your personal hairstyle preference.
