Doctors are reluctant to use systemic treatment (a pill or another form of internal treatment that affects the entire system) unless they know that hair loss is due to an excess of androgens in the system or excessive sensitivity to the normal amounts of androgens in the system. This is because these systemic treatments can reduce the body's levels of androgens. Therefore, physicians often choose topical (applied directly to the scalp).

If you’re one of the lucky ones that don’t have a family history of needing a toupee, then take some simple precautions and be sure to take good care of your hair.

Hair can be lost to improper care and damage. If you over color your hair, over style it, or abuse it with irons and blow dryers too often, you could be in line for some major fall out. Hair shouldn’t be colored any more often than every six to eight weeks and you should avoid it altogether if possible. While hair coloring doesn’t make everyone’s hair fall out, it does do damage and you will have healthier hair if you don’t color it. Try not to stretch your hair into styles that require a lot of pulling like ponytails and braids and don’t pull on it when you brush it.
