Shedding around 100 strands of hair per day is normal. However, when the detaching is significantly high, then it is considered as hair loss. Despite it being a normal part of aging, it can be experienced by anyone regardless of their age or gender. Other than age, psychological, medical, and physical factors may also cause hair loss and thinning. But most of the time, heredity is always the key driver. Balding in youthful years is not a pleasant condition as it tends to trigger a psychological breakdown.
