Human hair normally falls out at a rate of 50-100 hairs per day. Hair loss occurs when new hair growth does not keep pace with shedding. Common causes of hair loss include high levels of DHT, genetics, hormonal changes, medications, poor nutrition, stress, thyroid issues, and alopecia areata. Treatments include prescription medications like finasteride and minoxidil as well as supplements like biotin, niacin, caffeine, and saw palmetto that support hair growth by increasing blood flow and blocking DHT. Adopting a healthy lifestyle with a balanced diet and stress management can also promote hair regrowth.
