If you are loosing your hair you should be aware that there are several possible reasons for hair loss. The first thing you should do is to attempt to identify the possible cause or causes and try to eliminate them. It is a good idea to consult your doctor and ask him to refer you to a trichologist, who may be able to inform you of likely causes and possible treatments. Prescription medicines can work, but also have a fair failure rate. There are alternative to prescription medicines, some of which could easily be applied at home and are referred to as natural hair restoration techniques.

There are various diseases which may cause hair loss and the diagnosis of these is the responsibility of your doctor. For those who eat poor quality food, improving the diet may help to eliminate hair loss. Age is of course, a very important factor in hair loss, as people age various criteria such as reduced blood flow to the scalp can result in hair loss.

Genetics is also a very important factor. Some people have a genetic predisposition to hair loss. This is much more likely to be the case if several members of your family also suffer from hair loss.

Another important factor is stress. Stress can have many causes. Stress may result from worry about employment, ones financial situation, ones home or neighborhood (unruly or criminal citizens living in the area). It may also be caused by illness, problems with relationships and of course several other factors.

Unnecessarily high levels of stress can not only cause hair loss but may also endanger health in other ways, including for example heart disease.

If you are affected by undue stress, you should endeavor to take action to reduce the stress, do this whenever possible by eliminating the cause. If you live for instance in a bad neighborhood, move out as soon as you can into an alternative area which will be less stressful for you. If you have relationship problems, it may be a good idea to get some form of counseling or guidance, so that you can decide if the relationship can be made relatively stress free or whether you may be better terminating that relationship. Whatever you stress problem make sure you seek a solution and act on it. If necessary get advise or buy a reputable book on the subject.

As you can see there can be many reasons for hair loss, in this article I have mentioned several of them, and considered stress in more detail. Whatever the reason for your hair loss it is important that you take a positive attitude, as this will as always increase your chances of a successful outcome. It is a good idea to look at any method of counteracting hair loss or baldness, these days however many people are keen on using natural hair restoration methods as opposed to artificial chemical methods.

There is a " Secret " cause for many peoples hair loss, one which is not well known. Its often possible to reverse this hair loss. I have written a blog which includes an interesting review of a book which deals with this type of hair loss and give detailed easy to follow home based treatments.
