Dr. Wang Xiaoyan
Hair loss over the past two weeks may be caused by multiple factors. Increased stress or emotional fluctuations may have affected hair health, leading to increased hair loss. Secondly, unhealthy lifestyle habits, such as staying up late, irregular eating patterns, or lack of exercise, may also negatively impact hair condition. In addition, environmental factors such as seasonal changes and dry weather may cause hair to fall out more easily. Certain health conditions, such as hormonal imbalances, scalp infections, or autoimmune diseases, could also be responsible for significant hair loss. To identify the exact cause, it is recommended to maintain healthy lifestyle habits, reduce stress, and monitor for any other physical symptoms. If necessary, consult a doctor promptly for diagnosis and treatment.
