Overview

Hair Thinning

Hair thinning is a gradual process where individual hair strands become finer and the overall volume of hair reduces over time. It differs from sudden hair loss or baldness, often starting subtly with a widening part, a thinner ponytail, or increased shedding. Hair thinning can be caused by a variety of factors including genetics, hormonal imbalances, stress, nutritional deficiencies, scalp conditions, and excessive heat or chemical treatments. Though common in both men and women, early detection is key to effective treatment.

Hair Thinning

Hair thinning is a gradual process where individual hair strands become finer and the overall volume of hair reduces over time. It differs from sudden hair loss or baldness, often starting subtly with a widening part, a thinner ponytail, or increased shedding. Hair thinning can be caused by a variety of factors including genetics, hormonal imbalances, stress, nutritional deficiencies, scalp conditions, and excessive heat or chemical treatments.

What is Hair Thinning?

Hair thinning refers to a gradual reduction in hair density, where hair strands become finer, weaker, and less voluminous over time. Unlike sudden hair loss or bald spots, thinning happens progressively, making it harder to notice in early stages. It can affect both men and women and is commonly seen on the scalp, especially around the crown, temples, and hairline.

Types of Hair Thinning

  • Diffuse Thinning: Hair loss is spread evenly across the scalp, commonly seen in conditions like telogen effluvium.
  • Pattern Thinning: Follows a specific pattern, such as receding hairline or crown thinning — typical in androgenetic alopecia (male/female pattern baldness).
  • Breakage-Induced Thinning: Caused by chemical damage, excessive heat styling, or harsh hair products, leading to hair shaft breakage and reduced volume.

 

Causes of Hair Thinning

  • Genetics (Hereditary Hair Loss)
  • Hormonal Imbalance (PCOS, menopause, thyroid disorders)
  • Nutritional Deficiencies (Iron, Vitamin D, Biotin)
  • Stress & Lifestyle Factors
  • Scalp Conditions (Dandruff, psoriasis, fungal infections)
  • Excessive Hair Styling (Heat tools, tight hairstyles)
  • Post-Pregnancy or Medication Side Effects

Symptoms of Hair Thinning

  • Noticeable reduction in hair volume
  • Wider parting or visible scalp
  • Thinner ponytail or hair strands
  • Increased hair fall while brushing or washing
  • Scalp sensitivity or irritation
