Fahamka sababaha iyo daawaynta suurtogalka ah waxay gacan ka geysan kartaa maaraynta timaha daadashada.

Causes of Hair Loss

Sababaha Tima Daadashada

1:Genetics (Androgenetic Alopecia)

• Male-pattern baldness and female-pattern baldness are the most common types of hair loss. This condition is hereditary and follows predictable patterns. In men, it typically starts with a receding hairline and thinning at the crown, while women usually experience thinning along the top of the  scalp.

Hidde-sidaha (Androgenetic Alopecia)

• Timo-daadashada ragga iyo timo-daadashada dumarka waa kuwa ugu badan ee timaha la xiriira. Waa xaalad hidde-sidayaal ah oo qaab gaar ah u dhacda. Ragga, waxay badanaa ka bilaabataa in ay timaha dhinacyada iyo laabta ay ka yaraadaan, halka dumarka ay ku bilaabato dhuubashada timaha oo dhinaca sare ee madaxa ka dhacda. 

2:Hormonal Changes

• Hormonal imbalances can trigger temporary hair loss. Women may experience hair thinning during pregnancy, postpartum, menopause, or while on birth control pills due to fluctuating estrogen levels.
• In men, increased levels of dihydrotestosterone (DHT), a derivative of testosterone, are known to shrink hair follicles, leading to thinning hair and eventual loss

Isbeddelada Hormoonada

• Isbeddelada hormoonada ayaa sababi kara timaha oo si ku meel gaar ah u daata. Dumarku waxay la kulmi karaan timo-daadasho marka ay uurka leeyihiin, marka ay dhalayaan, ama xilliga ay dhalmo guyan, iyada oo ay sabab u tahay isbeddelada heerka estrogen.
• Ragga, heerka sare ee dihydrotestosterone (DHT), oo ah nooc ka mid ah testosterone, ayaa yareeya godka timaha, taas oo keenta dhuubasho iyo timo lumid.

3:Medical Conditions

• Alopecia areata is an autoimmune disorder where the immune system attacks hair follicles, causing patchy hair loss.
• Thyroid disorders, anemia, and polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) can all lead to hair loss.
• Scalp infections, like ringworm, and skin disorders such as psoriasis and dermatitis can damage hair follicles and lead to hair loss.

Xaaladaha Caafimaad

• Alopecia areata waa cudur ku dhaca hab-dhiska difaaca jirka kaas oo weerara godka timaha, taas oo sababa in timo googo’ay oo meelo gaar ah sameyo.
• Xaalado caafimaad sida cudurrada qanjirka tayroodhka, dhiig yari, iyo PCOS (xanuunka bararka ugxaanta dumarka) ayaa sidoo kale sababi kara timo-daadasho.
• Cudurrada ku dhaca maqaarka sida fungus, psoriasis, iyo dermatitis ayaa dhaawici kara godadka timaha.

4:Medications

• Certain medications used for treating conditions like cancer (chemotherapy), arthritis, depression, heart problems, and high blood pressure may lead to hair loss as a side effect.

Daawooyinka

• Daawooyin badan oo loogu talagalay cudurrada sida kansarka (daaweynta kemotherabi), xanuunnada kala-goysyada, iyo stresska iyo cadaadiska dhiigga ayaa sababi kara timo-daadasho.

5:Stress and Lifestyle Factors

• Emotional or physical stress can trigger temporary hair loss. Known as telogen effluvium, this condition causes more hairs than usual to enter the resting phase of the hair growth cycle, resulting in shedding.
• Poor nutrition, particularly deficiencies in iron, zinc, and biotin, can contribute to hair thinning. Crash dieting and drastic weight loss also often result in hair shedding.

Dhibaatada Nolosha iyo Walbahaarka

• Walbahaarka maskaxeed ama mid jidheed ayaa sababi kara in timo si ku meel gaar ah u daato. Waxaa loo yaqaan telogen effluvium, oo ah xaalad sababa in timo badan ku dhaco xilli kooban.
• Cunto xumo, gaar ahaan haddii jirku ka waayo birta, sinkaha, iyo biotin, waxay keeni kartaa timaha oo yaraada. Sidoo kale, miisaan dhimid aad u xad-dhaaf ah ayaa timo-daadasho keeni kara.
