Hemochromatosis is a disorder in which the body can build high amounts of iron. While we know that low levels of iron can cause hair loss. It is also possible that too high levels of iron, in other words Hemochromatosis can cause hair to fall out. Hemochromatosis can have several side-effects which are described in this article. Neofollics will explain several topics to help you understand this type of hair loss: 

- What are warning signs for hemochromatosis? 

- Can hemochromatosis cause hair loss? 

- Is hemochromatosis hair loss reversible? 

 

WHAT ARE WARNING SIGNS FOR HEMOCHROMATOSIS? 

The main cause of hemochromatosis is a faulty gene that can be passed on to a child by their parents due to genetics. In most cases it is linked to a fault in a gene called HFE, which affects your ability to absorb iron from food normally. This means that the amount of iron in your body gets out of balance and as a result you can get hemochromatosis symptoms such as feeling tired, experiencing weight loss, hair loss, weakness, joint pain and erectile disfunction.

 

CAN HEMOCHROMATOSIS CAUSE HAIR LOSS? 

Hemochromatosis hair loss is one of the hemochromatosis symptoms. It is one of the earlier signs and is not a specific sign of hemochromatosis. There are many other signs that may alert you even further such as loss of memory or overall feeling weak.  

When you suffer from hemochromatosis hair loss it is wise to stop a treatment that helps you to get you many irons in your body. If you suffer from hemochromatosis hair loss, it is wise to stop any treatment that aggravates it. To find out, you need to see a doctor or GP that will check if you are exposed to hemochromatosis. 

On the other hand, it is also possible that you experience hair loss precisely because you lack iron. So, if you are not sure we advise you to go check with a GP. A lack of iron means to less iron in your body for what it needs. Then you are not suffering from hemochromatosis hair loss at all, and you need to boost your iron levels actually. You can do this with the Hair Growth Supporting Tablets of Neofollics. 

 

IS HEMOCHROMATOSIS HAIR LOSS REVERSIBLE? 

When you know for certain that you are suffering from hemochromatosis hair loss then you can try to use a hair loss treatment. But it is not said that your hair will grow back. Again, we advise you to go to a GP or medical doctor who can help you to analyse your haemoglobin levels and best way to treat your hemochromatosis symptoms.
