If Your Hair Falls Out Often: A Self-Check Method for Hair Loss

Recently, hair loss has not been a painful condition that affects only men.

It is also a distressing condition that often occurs in women.

When you are shocked by the number of hairs that come out while washing your hair,

when you notice that your hair has been falling out more often lately,

or when you look in the mirror one day and see thinning hair,

you may become very anxious about whether hair loss is in progress.

Today, together with Director Jeong Jae-hong of Dana Plastic Surgery,

we will take some time to learn about

a self-check method for hair loss that can help you determine whether you are experiencing hair loss.

First,

hair loss refers to a condition in which the number of hairs falling out per day

continues to become abnormally high.

Director Jeong Jae-hong said that

the growth and shedding of hair vary from person to person,

so it is not possible to definitively diagnose hair loss by saying that

if more than a certain number of hairs fall out per day, it is hair loss.

However, he added that you can find out accurately through various tests

after visiting the hospital.

First,

you can compare your current appearance with old photos

to check whether your forehead has become wider.  

A wider forehead may mean that hair loss is progressing.

The second is heredity.  

Check whether there are family members on either your father’s or mother’s side who have hair loss.

Hair loss can be inherited,

so you may also show symptoms of hair loss.

Third,

a simple self-test.

Director Jeong Jae-hong said that

you can self-test by grabbing about twenty strands of hair

with your thumb and index finger

and gently pulling to see whether five or more come out.

If hair comes out easily when gently pulled,

you may suspect symptoms of hair loss.

Director Jeong Jae-hong of Dana Plastic Surgery said that

once hair loss begins,

it is a progressive condition that gradually worsens.   

Therefore, he said that it is advisable to know the symptoms in advance

and receive treatment at the appropriate time.

He also said that because it is important first to accurately diagnose

what type of hair loss it is,

it is a good idea to visit the hospital in advance,

get examined and counseled about what kind of hair loss it is and what treatment is needed,

and then concluded his remarks.
