Actually, hair loss is mainly caused by frequent urination, urgency, and incomplete bladder emptying, which are usually caused by urinary system infections. This situation is more common in female patients due to the characteristics of the female urethral structure and changes in estrogen levels within the body, which make these symptoms more likely to appear.

Additionally, it could also be caused by urinary tract obstruction, which is generally more common in male patients. However, whether male or female, the appearance of symptoms such as frequent urination, urgency, and incomplete bladder emptying can lead to feelings of irritability, depression, and gloominess, hence the occurrence of hair loss. It is recommended to seek examination and treatment at a formal hospital in such cases.

Hair loss and night sweats, what is going on?

Hair loss and night sweats are mostly considered to be caused by excessive dampness in the body or insufficient kidney qi, among other reasons. For such conditions, timely adjustment is essential. If the issue is dampness, it is beneficial to consume more Chinese yam, barley, adzuki beans, and red beans regularly to help expel the internal moisture; if the issue is insufficient kidney qi, timely treatment is necessary, as severe cases can lead to physical weakness and even symptoms of collapse. Effective improvement can be achieved through medication, and the diet can be supplemented with foods like goji berries and donkey-hide gelatin to help regulate the condition.

Is postpartum hair loss related to breastfeeding?

Postpartum hair loss is a normal physiological phenomenon and is unrelated to breastfeeding. It is mainly due to psychological factors, lifestyle, and physiological changes after childbirth. During pregnancy, the level of hormones in the body, particularly estrogen, is relatively high, which can make the scalp the healthiest it has been in one's life. However, after the birth of the child, estrogen levels decrease. This imbalance leads to the shrinking of the skin's hair follicles, resulting in hair loss. In treatment, dietary adjustments are primarily used, such as consuming more protein-rich foods like eggs, milk, walnuts, black rice, and sunflower seeds. Additionally, it is important to have a balanced diet with plenty of fresh vegetables and fruits rich in vitamins, ensure adequate sleep, and maintain a relaxed mood. Managing these aspects of daily life can also help alleviate hair loss.

Is shaving the head useful for hair loss?

Shaving your head when you lose hair does not clearly help alleviate the symptoms. However, cutting your hair short appropriately can reduce the nutritional burden on our hair follicles and physical traction, which can somewhat help in the prevention and treatment of hair loss. Specific hair loss still requires systematic treatment and conditioning. When losing hair, you can take Chinese herbal medicine for conditioning. According to traditional Chinese medicine theory, hair loss is generally considered to be caused by blood deficiency or kidney deficiency. Moreover, excessive fatigue, staying up late, and hereditary factors can also lead to hair loss. Therefore, it's important to avoid excessive fatigue, rest adequately, sleep by 11 o'clock, avoid staying up late, increase nutrition appropriately, and include various vegetables and fruits rich in vitamins C, A, B, and E in the diet. If necessary, some medications that supplement blood and nourish the kidneys can be taken orally.

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. Therefore, it is advisable to include foods like black sesame and walnuts in one’s diet, as they are beneficial for hair conditioning and can significantly improve the situation. Engaging in more physical exercises is also recommended, as it can effectively increase resistance and help alleviate symptoms.

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.
