What Is The Diagnosis Of A Teenager Losing Hair And Weight Loss?

by admin on August 19, 2009

What if a teenage boy around 14, had hair loss and lost weight about 4 pounds of normal weight, what diagnosis is that? Is it cancer, leukekimia, or something else? If it’s cancer or lukekimia what stage is this? Tell me real facts! :) )

It could well be down to stress. I lost about a stone in weight due to stress just last year. I didn’t have the hair loss though. Good idea to have yourself checked by your GP. Don’t worry – it probably isn’t anything serious. Just another thought – does your dad or any close relatives, male or female, suffer from hereditary hair loss? I think you’d be too young for anything like that affecting you but I’m not an expert and hope that’s not the case. I came across a product that actually helps re-grow your own hair, when I was looking into stuff for a friend. I won’t bother mentioning it just now but please email me if you want to know more about it.

Here a few simple home remedies which can be tried at home to control hair fall.
1.Rinse your hair with a mix of apple cider vinegar and sage tea this helps hair grow..
2. A medicine rich in sulfur is also recommended as sulfur plays an important part in the structure of the hair.
3. Massage with olive oil before going to bed at night and next morning, wash off the hair gently..
4. To treat hair loss apply a little lemon juice with some black tea.Massage well and shampoo.
5. Beat two eggs,and add two tablespoons of water to it. Rinse hair and pour the egg mixture over the hair.Massage the scalp well and leave for 10 minutes.Then wash it.

We can’t diagnose you by those 2 symptoms alone. It MIGHT be cancer, it can also be stress. You need to get a blood test to determine what REALLY is going on with your body. Talk about your concerns with your doctor.

There are many less serious causes of hair loss that don’t involve life threatening diseases. If the 14 yr old boy is losing weight from an eating disorder this could lead to hair loss. If the weight is falling off without a change in diet he may have an overactive thyroid. If he is on any type of medication this could cause weight change and hair loss. The link below has information on the types and causes of teenage hair loss.
