For example, about 3 or 4 months after an illness or a major surgery, you may suddenly lose a large amount of hair. This hair loss is related to the stress of the illness and is temporary.

Hormonal problems may cause hair loss. If your thyroid gland is overactive or under active, your hair may fall out. This hair loss usually can be helped by treatment thyroid disease. Hair loss may occur if male or female hormones, known as androgen's and estrogen's, are out of balance. Correcting the hormone imbalance may stop your hair loss.

Many women notice hair loss about 3 months after they’ve had a baby. This loss is also related to hormones. During pregnancy, high levels of certain hormones cause the body to keep hair that would normally fall out. When the hormones return to per-pregnancy levels, that hair falls out and the normal cycle of growth and loss starts again.

The Reason of Hair Transplants

            Men, and in some cases women, gradually lose their hair over the front, top, and crown of their head. This is a natural phenomenon called "Genetic Pattern Baldness." The hair follicles in these areas react negatively to the hormone testosterone, resulting in gradual hair loss.

The hairs on the sides and lower back of the head are genetically programmed not to be affected and does not fall out. Because of this genetic programming, this hair can be permanently transplanted to thinning and balding areas. This donor hair will not fall out and can be cut, combed, and styled just as the hair it has replaced. It will continue to grow for the rest of your life and will not be affected by any hormone changes.
