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.

Can anxiety-induced hair loss heal itself?

Hair loss caused by anxiety, if mild, generally only requires mood improvement for healing. Moreover, one must avoid staying up late, as frequently doing so can weaken one's constitution and aggravate the condition.

Engaging in more physical exercises is also recommended, as it can effectively increase resistance and help alleviate symptoms.

What is the reason for severe hair loss after childbirth?

Postpartum hair loss is severe and is mostly associated with deficiency in both Qi and blood after childbirth. Some patients experience this due to lack of vitamins, trace elements, or changes in endocrine function. If hair loss is severe and persistent without good treatment results, it is recommended to visit a formal hospital to initially check for a complete blood count to see if there is any anemia and to check for trace elements deficiencies. If these conditions exist, it is advisable to take medications that supplement blood, vitamins, and trace elements according to the symptoms. Additionally, some patients may experience symptoms such as fatigue, dizziness, and back pain. For these symptoms, visiting a traditional Chinese medicine practitioner and using herbal medicine for a long-term treatment can be effective. Regularly regulate your diet and lifestyle habits, try to avoid eating foods with heavy flavors, ensure good rest, and avoid staying up late.

What should one eat if they have severe hair loss after childbirth?

Postpartum hair loss is also related to nutritional factors in women. In daily life, it is recommended to eat more nutritious foods, such as those rich in iron, including soybeans, black beans, eggs, lean meat, milk, chicken, fish, and fresh vegetables and fruits like pineapple and carrots, which can supplement iron. Additionally, it is important to supplement protein with foods like black sesame and corn, which contain some methionine, potentially slowing down hair loss. It is also necessary to ensure adequate iodine intake, found in seafood like seaweed, oysters, and kelp. Furthermore, consuming vitamin E-rich foods such as black sesame, leafy greens, and lettuce can help prevent hair loss and combat hair aging.
