At the end of each year, it is a time for major workplaces to compete for performance, and it is also a time when male friends are most nervous and anxious. Moderate stress can bring motivation and motivation, but excessive stress can cause hair loss and turn men's heads into the "Mediterranean.". Among many factors that cause hair loss, neurogenic hair loss is most closely related to mental stress.
What is "neurogenic alopecia"?
From the perspective of traditional Chinese medicine, neurogenic alopecia is a type of "deficiency" syndrome, which involves the internal injury of the "seven emotions" (referring to joy, anger, worry, thought, sadness, fear, and shock) and the external sensation of six evils. Under the effect of mental pressure, the human body's hair erector muscles contract, the hair stands upright, the autonomic or central nervous system functions are disrupted, the hair follicles and papillae undergo major changes, and malnutrition, leading to inhibition of hair growth function, and the hair enters the resting period, leading to hair loss.
The scalp of patients with neurogenic alopecia is very greasy, as if smeared with oil. There are also scorched hair, lack of gloss, and persistent yellowish scales, or grayish white scales flying. This type of hair loss can be divided into alopecia areata, total alopecia, and generalized alopecia, with generalized alopecia being the most severe and also known as "generalized alopecia.". This disease is characterized by rapid progression, and can reach total baldness within months, days, or even overnight.
Nervous alopecia can generally recover after emotional improvement. Nervous hair loss caused by emotional problems such as depression and stress usually gradually grows out when nutrition is sufficient and mood improves. On the contrary, if the degree of depression cannot be alleviated and becomes deeper, the rate of hair loss will become faster and faster.
IT men are prone to hair loss
"Sleeping too little can make you unable to lift your spirits the next day, but it won't cause you to lose hair. The length of sleep has no significant relationship with hair loss, but the early or late time it takes to fall asleep is closely related to hair loss. People who often stay up late and work late and fall asleep late are more likely to lose hair than those who go to bed early and rise early.".
The survey found that 80% of IT men are chronically under tremendous mental pressure, suffering from anxiety, insomnia, irritability, panic, and tension, leading to neurological disorders, digestive system disorders, low immunity, and endocrine disorders, making them a group of people with hair loss.
"Maintenance Tips" for Hair Loss Patients
1. Keep your mood and spirit happy.
2. Eat reasonably and don't stay up late. Don't overeat animal foods, live regularly, and adjust gastrointestinal functions.
3. Control the number of shampoos. Generally, twice a week is enough, and a shampoo with good washing effect and low irritation should be selected.
If hair loss is caused by hair follicle damage caused by head skin diseases, seek medical advice from a dermatologist and actively treat it.
5. Be patient. Hair growth is a slow process that typically takes 3-6 months or more. Therefore, patients must cooperate with doctors' treatment and persevere in order to achieve satisfactory results.
Male friends, in order to protect your appearance from damage, while working hard, try to relax and relax. Don't let pressure overwhelm you.
