For second-degree hair loss due to kidney deficiency, it should be determined based on pathology. After the kidney deficiency is cured, the hair can grow back. If the kidney deficiency is not serious, the hair loss can heal itself. Always pay attention to regular eating habits, rest well, avoid overworking, and do not be too stressed. You can choose traditional Chinese medicine treatments and use medication based on the doctor’s advice to achieve the effect of nourishing the kidneys. Eat more fruits and vegetables, abstain from sexual activity for the time being, and consume foods high in melanin such as black sesame seeds, Polygonum multiflorum, and black beans.

How to treat oily hair and hair loss?

For greasy hair accompanied by hair loss, clinically diagnosed as seborrheic hair loss, it is due to the seborrheic dermatitis foundation, followed by subsequent hair loss symptoms. The key is to strengthen the skin's oil control and cleanliness, combined with the use of selenium disulfide cleansers or coal tar to wash the scalp. Avoid spicy and high-calorie foods, eat more green vegetables and rough fiber, etc. Oral compound glycyrrhizin tablets, cysteine tablets, and vitamin B6 tablets can be taken. For the hair loss area, topical applications such as Seven-Ingredient Curcumin Vines Rub, Compound Indomethacin Tincture, and 5% Minoxidil Spray can be used.

Is scanty menstruation a cause of hair loss?

There are many causes of hair loss, such as genetic factors. If parents experience hair loss, their children are relatively more likely to experience it as well, especially as they age. Additionally, factors related to the immune system, excessive mental stress or psychological stress, taking certain medications, and autoimmune diseases, among others, can lead to hair loss. Another cause can be hormonal imbalances; for example, if a woman has a light menstrual flow due to hormonal imbalance, this could be one of the reasons for hair loss. It is advisable to systematically go to a hospital for an examination to follow the medical advice and proper diagnosis of a doctor. If you have further questions, please consult a doctor at the hospital for more information.

What should a girl do if she has severe hair loss?

When women experience severe hair loss, they should first go to a hospital for relevant examinations to identify the specific causes. Treatment for female hair loss should target the cause. Options include using androgen receptor inhibitors and biological response modifiers such as minoxidil, spironolactone, etc. Topical applications typically involve the use of selenium sulfide-based dandruff and itch-relieving cleansers, and herbal treatments can also be used. Female hair loss is usually related to staying up late, poor rest, excessive mental tension, anxiety, and heredity. In women, hair loss usually does not involve much recession of the frontal hairline; it is primarily a thinning of hair on the top of the head. Therefore, it is crucial for women experiencing hair loss to seek standardized treatment and avoid misusing medications, which could potentially cause greater damage to the hair follicles and exacerbate the condition.

Postpartum hair loss starts from when?

Postpartum hair loss generally occurs around two to three months after childbirth and usually stops on its own within six months, typically not lasting longer than one year. Postpartum hair loss is actually a resting state of the scalp for the mother, and is a physiological phenomenon. There are various reasons for postpartum hair loss, such as insufficient sleep during pregnancy, significant blood loss and anemia during childbirth, and inadequate nutrition during pregnancy. Additionally, hormonal changes during the postpartum period and breastfeeding can also cause hair loss. It is important not to be overly anxious about postpartum hair loss. Paying attention to nutrition and ensuring adequate sleep can help alleviate the condition on its own.

Will the hair grow back after kidney deficiency type hair loss is treated?

When hair loss occurs due to kidney deficiency, normally, hair will regrow after the kidney deficiency is treated. However, in severe cases of kidney deficiency where hair loss occurs, some patients may not experience regrowth, so results can vary from person to person. During treatment, it can be beneficial to consume foods like black sesame seeds, walnuts, and black beans, which can effectively promote hair development and provide relief. It is crucial to treat kidney deficiency promptly to prevent exacerbating the condition, making it more difficult to cure. It is also important to avoid staying up late regularly.
