class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>The average scalp holds around 90,000 to 150,000 hairs, and each one grows for a few years before resting and falling out on its own to make room for a new strand. Because of this natural cycle, losing 50 to 100 hairs a day is considered normal shedding, not hair loss.<\/p>\n<p>Here is how to tell the difference:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Shedding stays about the same from month to month<\/li>\n<li>Your ponytail or braid still feels roughly as thick as before<\/li>\n<li>There is no widening part line or visible scalp showing through<\/li>\n<li>New hair keeps growing back at the same pace it falls<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>If any of these have changed for you over the past few months, it is worth reading on to understand what could be causing it.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"The_Real_Causes_of_Hair_Fall\"><\/span>The Real Causes of Hair Fall<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Genetic_Hair_Thinning_Androgenetic_Alopecia\"><\/span>Genetic Hair Thinning (Androgenetic Alopecia)<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>This is the single most common cause of hair fall worldwide, and it runs in families on either side. In men it usually shows up as a receding hairline and thinning at the crown. In women it tends to show up as gradual thinning along the part line rather than a receding hairline. It develops slowly over years, so early treatment gives the best chance of slowing it down.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Nutritional_Deficiencies\"><\/span>Nutritional Deficiencies<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Low iron is one of the most common and most reversible causes of hair fall in Pakistani women, especially after heavy periods, pregnancy, or breastfeeding. Vitamin D deficiency is also very common here despite the sunny climate, mostly because of indoor lifestyles and limited sun exposure. Crash dieting and low protein intake can push hair into a shedding phase within weeks.<\/p>\n<p>A simple blood panel checking ferritin, vitamin D, and thyroid function (TSH) can usually confirm or rule this out. Health+ by Marham offers home sample collection for these tests with a 30 percent discount, along with a free doctor call to explain the results, which makes this an easy first step before starting any treatment.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.marham.pk/healthhub\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/why-is-your-hair-falling-so-much-the-rea-content-1-1783404073.webp\" alt=\"Nutritional Deficiencies\" \/><\/figure>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Thyroid_and_Hormonal_Changes\"><\/span>Thyroid and Hormonal Changes<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Both an underactive and an overactive thyroid can cause diffuse hair thinning across the whole scalp rather than one area. Women with PCOS often notice hair fall alongside irregular periods or acne. New mothers commonly see a wave of shedding around three to six months after delivery as hormone levels reset, which usually settles on its own.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Stress_and_Telogen_Effluvium\"><\/span>Stress and Telogen Effluvium<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>A major illness, high fever, typhoid, dengue, or a stressful life event can push a large batch of hairs into the shedding phase at once. This type of hair fall usually peaks around two to three months after the trigger and gradually improves on its own over the following months once the underlying cause has passed.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Hard_Water_Styling_and_Product_Overuse\"><\/span>Hard Water, Styling, and Product Overuse<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Many households across Punjab and parts of Islamabad rely on hard or borewell water, which can leave hair dry, rough, and prone to breakage over time. Frequent heat styling, tight braiding, and repeated chemical treatments add to this and can look like hair fall even when the roots are healthy.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Underlying_Scalp_Conditions\"><\/span>Underlying Scalp Conditions<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Dandruff, seborrheic dermatitis, and fungal scalp infections do not directly destroy hair follicles, but an untreated scalp condition can speed up shedding from other causes. Treating the scalp issue often brings a noticeable improvement in hair fall within a few weeks.<\/p>\n<table style=\"width: 100%; border-collapse: collapse;\" border=\"1\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"8\">\n<tbody>\n<tr style=\"background: #00507A; color: #ffffff;\">\n<th>Cause<\/th>\n<th>Common Age Group<\/th>\n<th>Usually Treatable<\/th>\n<th>See a Dermatologist If<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Genetic thinning<\/td>\n<td>20s onward<\/td>\n<td>Yes, with early treatment<\/td>\n<td>Thinning is progressive and visible<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Iron or vitamin D deficiency<\/td>\n<td>Any age, more common in women<\/td>\n<td>Yes, once diagnosed<\/td>\n<td>Fatigue or pale skin also present<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Thyroid or PCOS related<\/td>\n<td>20s to 40s<\/td>\n<td>Yes, with hormone management<\/td>\n<td>Irregular periods, weight changes, or acne alongside hair fall<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Stress or post illness shedding<\/td>\n<td>Any age<\/td>\n<td>Usually resolves on its own<\/td>\n<td>Shedding continues beyond four to six months<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Hard water or styling damage<\/td>\n<td>Any age<\/td>\n<td>Yes, with routine changes<\/td>\n<td>Hair feels brittle but scalp looks normal<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<div style=\"background: linear-gradient(135deg,#00507A 0%,#0073A8 100%); border-radius: 12px; padding: 28px 24px; text-align: center; color: #ffffff; margin: 32px 0;\">\n<p style=\"font-size: 22px; font-weight: bold; margin: 0 0 8px; color: #ffffff;\">Not Sure Which Cause Applies to You?<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-size: 15px; margin: 0 0 18px; color: #eaf4fa;\">Dr. Malik Aftab Afzal is a dermatologist with over 15 years of experience treating hair fall, including PRP and laser therapy.
