Answer: Hair loss can be caused by various factors, including genetics, hormonal imbalances, medical conditions, certain medications, and lifestyle factors.

The most common cause of hair loss in both men and women is androgenetic alopecia, also known as male pattern baldness or female pattern hair loss, which is influenced by genetics and hormones. Other factors like stress, nutritional deficiencies, and scalp conditions can also contribute to hair thinning and shedding.

It’s important to note that the specific cause of hair loss can vary from person to person, and determining the underlying cause is essential for developing an appropriate treatment plan. Consulting with a healthcare professional or dermatologist can help identify the cause of hair loss and recommend suitable interventions for hair rejuvenation and health. Early intervention and proper care can make a significant difference in managing hair loss and promoting healthier hair growth.
