Can poor kidney function cause hair loss?

Poor kidney function is actually not significantly related to hair loss. Even in severe cases of kidney failure or patients with uremia, most still retain their hair. Not all patients with uremia experience hair loss. Thus, there is not much of a connection between kidney function and hair growth. If a patient is experiencing hair loss, it could be due to issues with the skin or scalp itself, such as male pattern baldness which is related to an excess of androgens in the hair follicles, or factors like allergies or fungal infections could also cause hair loss.

Is it useful to take calcium tablets for postpartum hair loss?

Eating calcium tablets is useful for postpartum hair loss. A lack of calcium can also cause hair loss, and calcium tablets can effectively provide the calcium needed by the body. 99% of the calcium in the human body is found in teeth and bones, and if not paid attention to, calcium deficiency is not the main cause of hair loss. Clinically, it is mainly caused by changes in hormone levels in the body and some emotional and psychological factors. Therefore, taking calcium tablets is useful for postpartum hair loss, but it is necessary to identify some related factors causing the hair loss. It's important to maintain a good mood, strengthen nutrition, massage the scalp with a wooden comb, or rhythmically tap the head to promote blood circulation in the scalp.
