Stress and Distress

In today’s chaotic world, stress is the very basic underlying cause for many health-related complications and diseases.

Stress and Hair Loss-Complement each other

Telogen effluvium, as per medical term, is a condition where in the person will experience sudden loss of hair due to the onset of stress. Many of us are still ignorant that stress can cause hair loss in us.

The main reason for our misconception is due to the fact that there will not be hair fall during the stressful situation but the hair follicles will be forced to enter into a telogen state and shed the hair during the later part of the stressful times.

Stress is responsible for making the hair follicles to stop hair growth and to enter into the resting stage known as telogen state medically.

The hair and the hair follicle will remain dormant in this stage for some period, even up to 3 months in certain cases, and then start shedding the hair.

The resultant effect of stress will be visible in the form of hair loss long after the stressful situation and hence many people are not able to associate their hair loss with stress, but it is an established fact that stress and hair loss is inseparable and go hand in hand.

A yet another indirect way of stress showing up as hair loss is through nutrition.

During stress, many people develop eating disorders and they may end up either in eating more or very less and hence there will be a wide variation in the nutrient availability levels.

The drastic change in the one’s nutrient level due to stress can result in hair loss.In an over eating case, majority of the people always goes for chocolates as a natural choice.

Further people who are in stress reach for fatty foods, sweets and chocolates and all these foods act as pacifiers and calms down the brain and the moods.

On the contrary, less eating or poor eating can result in shortage of nutrients and that can result in hair loss and hence the popular belief that stress and hair loss go hand in hand.
