Hair is consisted of a protein called keratin which is secreted in follicles that are located in the outer shell of the dermis. It is normal for a person to lose approximately 100 hair daily. The organism produces hair continuously in order to replace the ones that it loses.
Among other factors that cause hair loss is the low iron and ferritin levels, the absence of folic acid, endocrine dysfunctions such as thyroid or the polycystic ovary syndrome, drug intake or diseases etc. Occasionally, intense hair loss appears after an extensive diet or due to insufficient intake of nutrients. Lastly, according to studies, stress is one of the most important factors that contribute to hair loss.
