How to Slow Down Hair Loss
- What can help with hair loss?

Hair loss can be a distressing experience for both men and women. And if your balding is caused by genetics or autoimmune diseases, it may not be reversible.
However, you may be able to slow down or stop the process by addressing the underlying cause of balding, whether it’s due to nutritional deficiency, stress, thyroid imbalances, bad styling products, or anti-acne medication. Hair loss may take 3-6 months to reverse.
What are the different types of balding?
There are different types of balding, and each looks slightly different. Example includes:
- Alopecia areata: Patchy in different parts of the scalp
- Male pattern baldness: Along the temples and vertex of the scalp
