Causes for Diffuse pattern hair loss

Just like the male and female pattern hair loss, diffuse pattern hair loss is also a hereditary condition that usually transfers from parents to their offspring. It is caused by the excessive amount of Dihydrotestosterone level in the body. Recent studies indicate that when the DHT level in the body rises, the hair becomes thin, this occurs due to the Dihydrotestosterone attacks the hair follicles and makes them weak. Apart from these, there can be many other factors that can induce diffuse pattern hair loss such as nutritional deficiency, hormonal imbalance, and bad hair care routine.
