Common triggers

What can cause sudden hair shedding?

Shedding usually starts two to three months after the trigger. Your doctor will go through your recent history to find it.

Postpartum hair loss

Hormonal change after delivery can make a large number of hairs shed together.

PCOS and hormonal causes

Hormonal imbalance can cause thinning along with irregular periods, acne or excess facial hair.

Thyroid disease

Both under- and overactive thyroid can cause diffuse hair loss.

Iron and nutrient deficiency

Low iron, vitamin D, B12 or protein intake can reduce hair growth.

Stress, illness and fever

Dengue, typhoid, COVID-19 and other infections, surgery and major stress can trigger shedding.

Weight loss, chemotherapy and medicines

Rapid weight loss, chemotherapy and several medicines are known causes of hair loss.

Treatment pathway

Finding the cause, then rebuilding growth.

Treating the trigger matters more than any hair product.
