Can kidney deficiency type hair loss heal itself?

Kidney deficiency hair loss cannot heal by itself; it requires regular diet adjustments or the use of medications that supplement kidney deficiency for effective treatment. Do not let it heal on its own, as neglecting it might worsen the condition and lead to other symptoms, so timely treatment is crucial. Foods that supplement kidney deficiency, such as leeks, white radishes, donkey-hide gelatin, and goji berries, should be consumed regularly as they can effectively help in replenishing kidney deficiency and improve symptoms. It is also very important to rest adequately, avoid excessive fatigue, and most importantly, avoid staying up late.

Postpartum hair loss should consult which department?

Postpartum hair loss can be addressed by consulting dermatology or internal medicine departments at hospitals. It is quite common for women to experience hair loss after childbirth, primarily due to weaknesses in vital energy and blood, as well as changes in endocrine functions, such as hormonal fluctuations that decrease the nourishing function of scalp blood, leading to hair loss. For hair loss after childbirth, it is important to consume foods rich in protein and foods that replenish blood and vital energy to correct bodily weaknesses. Adequate rest and ensuring sufficient sleep are also crucial. If the situation is severe, it is necessary to follow the doctor's advice and take medication for treatment.

What should I do if I have severe hair loss due to kidney deficiency?

Severe hair loss caused by kidney deficiency should first be treated with medication under the guidance of a qualified physician. Generally, hair loss is mainly considered to be caused by an excess of androgens or an oversensitivity to androgens, resulting in symptoms. This condition is caused by emotional depression leading to 'fire,' so it is essential to promptly clear the meridians. For example, acupuncture can be very effective in conditioning, and eating more walnuts or black sesame in the diet can also help alleviate the symptoms of hair loss.

What are the reasons for frequent urination and hair loss in women?

Common causes of frequent urination and hair loss in women are as follows: First, frequent urination in women can be seen in normal physiological conditions, but it could also be caused by pathological changes. A normal physiological occurrence generally happens when there is excessive water intake over a short period, leading to frequent urination. Pathological frequent urination is commonly caused by diseases such as ureteral stones, cystitis, and urethritis. These conditions can stimulate the bladder or urethral mucosa, causing symptoms like frequent urination, urgency, and painful urination. Patients will urinate frequently, but the volume of urine each time is not large, and there may be a stinging or burning sensation in the urethra during urination. Second, hair loss in women may occur due to long-term lack of sleep and other poor lifestyle habits, such as smoking and excessive drinking.
