I am 12 and 1/2 and have just started my period. I am suffering from extreme hair loss, by that I mean that when I brush my hair with my fingers many strands fall out, or when I am in the shower clumps of hair will come out and when I tie my hair and then untie it hair will be wrapped around the hair tie. Is this normal. I am really nervous as I can almost feel my hair thinning! Help!

How long would the drug have to be taken before hair loss would start, and how long after stopping medications, before hair is back to normal.

Corwin Brown asked:


It matters not what sex you are as to the strength and health of your hair. It will come a time for many individuals to face the facts that hair will be lost and will not be growing back as it usually does.

Certain individuals are destined to suffer this hair loss as it was passed down from one generation tot he next within their family. If one family member has suffered male pattern baldness, it is a sure bet that the younger men in the family will also loose their hair.

Hair loss treatment can be many strange and unique things people come up with to hide the fact that they are loosing their hair and do not want others to see it. For those who are suffering with thinning hair or baldness, there are a couple of things you can do to help the situation.

Hair Loss Treatment Products

Medication is the first course of action needing to be considered. This means a trip to the doctor or dermatologist. This is a good idea because it will allow you to find out just what is causing the hair loss.

It could be a temporary situation that will clear up in time or something requiring a drastic course of action to improve. Once the problem is addressed the right medication can be given. Not every medication works great for everyone because of the hair type each of us has and how unique they are. A cream or spray may be the next thing to think about in hair loss treatment.

These items go directly on the area affected. They are designed to go right into the follicle and give it the nutrition it needs to become strong and healthy again.

More Extreme Procedures

There are more extreme hair loss treatment options that may apply to the more serious situations that have no other course of action. It might be time to consider transplant surgery. The operation is not a major procedure and only takes one follicle at a time and transplants a healthy on in place of the old one. The skin on the scalp will be numbed by a local anesthetic so there will be little or no feeling whatsoever.

The successful transplant will take over fr the old narrow follicle and hair will begin to grow in the new and healthy one. A more extreme method of hair restoration is natural treatments like homeopathic and acupuncture to the scalp. These procedures are not enforced by a medical doctor and are still not proven to be effective except by word of mouth from the users. This is not to discourage anyone from using them but do not be disappointed when they fail.

What Is Right For You?

There are so many hair treatment options available that one is not a fix for all hair problems. Taking some time to do your research on all of the ones you are interested in trying will not only save you time but money also as most insurance will not pay for this problem to be repaired. The Internet is a great place to begin your search.

You can get connected to others who have and are going through the same phase of life. Here is where you can get first hand stories and testimonies of how their individual experiences have turned out. It will also give you a hair loss treatment support group as you goes along in your journey. The best advice is to take your time and try each procedure to see if it will be effective for your personal problem. Continue trying until you find the special one that brings your hair back to life and regrowth begins all over again.
