How much hair loss will I experience in the coming years?

It is difficult to predict how much hair loss will occur in the coming years because hair loss depends on many factors and varies from person to person. However, experts can make estimates using some methods:

    Genetic Assessment: If there is male pattern hair loss (androgenetic alopecia) in the family, an idea about the risk and progression rate of hair loss can be obtained.

    Current Hair Condition Analysis: Hair density, condition of hair follicles, and type of hair loss are evaluated by the specialist.

    Hair Analysis Tests: Analyses of hair and scalp provide information about the hair cycle and hair health.

    Hormonal and Medical Tests: Levels of thyroid, vitamin D, iron, etc. are examined to determine the causes of hair loss.

    Hair Loss Measurement Tools: Techniques such as trichogram and phototrichogram are used to measure hair loss amount and monitor progression.

Based on these data, a dermatologist or hair transplant specialist can make an estimated prediction about the possible hair loss process. However, exact certainty is not possible because lifestyle, stress, nutrition, and similar factors also play a major role.

Do you think vitamin D deficiency can cause hair thinning and hair loss?
Definitely, vitamin D deficiency can cause hair thinning and hair loss. Vitamin D is an important vitamin for the healthy functioning of hair follicles, and its deficiency can lead to weakening and loss of hair. Especially chronic vitamin D deficiency can negatively affect the hair growth cycle, causing hair thinning and loss.

If you have hair loss, it is recommended to check your vitamin D levels and take supplements if necessary. However, since hair loss is a multifactorial condition, a comprehensive evaluation with a dermatologist or hair health specialist is essential.

Do doctors take sudden hair loss into consideration?

In hair transplant operations, sudden hair loss in people under 30 years old should always be taken into account. If they are not receiving any hair loss treatment, it is beneficial to start treatment as soon as possible. Of course, the same applies to patients over 30 years old as well.
