Qin Lina, director of the Rehabilitation Department of the Third Affiliated Hospital of Beijing University of Chinese Medicine, said: "Baldness, we usually call it baldness, and medically it is called Mediterranean alopecia. Most of these patients are caused by genetic factors, and some of them are due to endocrine factors, that is, excessive androgen secretion. It is unscientific for bald people to apply ginger juice to grow hair, because the skin on their heads is very thin and bright, and the pores are particularly small. This shows that most of its hair follicles have shrunk and died. If only ginger juice is applied to promote hair growth, it will not only have no effect, but also accelerate hair follicle aging if the force is too large or the frequency is too large. "
Experts tell us that the scalp hair follicles of bald people will gradually become smaller under the action of androgen, and even some hair follicles will eventually disappear completely, so ginger juice will not play any role. So, does ginger juice itself have the effect of hair growth? Is ginger hair growth effective for everyone?
Yang, deputy chief physician of the dermatology department of the First Hospital of Peking University, said: "There is no evidence to prove whether ginger juice can promote hair growth. In fact, there is a completely opposite result in the laboratory. After ginger extract was used in hair follicle culture or animal experiment, hair growth was inhibited. Does ginger have a therapeutic effect on alopecia? At present, there is a folk method of rubbing alopecia areata with ginger, which is effective for some people, but is it really ginger that is playing a therapeutic role and needs large-scale clinical observation to prove it? Why do you say that? Because alopecia areata itself can heal itself, if alopecia areata is not very heavy, it will grow up after a while, so it is hard to say whether it is the role of ginger or self-healing. "
In addition, many people think that using the right shampoo will be beneficial to hair growth. So, does this statement make sense?
Yang said: "Hair growth and shedding will not be affected by shampoo. Various shampoos have no effect on hair loss. "
Experts tell us that baldness is mostly determined by genetic factors and endocrine factors, and it is difficult to change it through daily self-care. However, some types of hair loss can be improved by self-adjustment.
Qin Lina said: "There are two types of hair loss, which can be improved by adjusting daily diet and routine. One is caused by mental factors, such as mental stress, long-term insomnia and irregular work and rest, which will all cause hair loss. At this time, you can improve your mood by changing your routine, adjusting your mentality and relaxing your mood. There is also hair loss caused by malnutrition, such as hair loss caused by diet control such as weight loss, and alopecia areata and pillow baldness caused by children's picky eaters. We can change it by adding some trace elements and adjusting the diet structure. "
From this perspective, if you want to make your hair healthy, you must first start with a balanced diet and reasonable sleep. In addition, experts remind that if you are facing the problem of hair loss, you should seek medical advice in time, prescribe the right medicine, and never use folk remedies indiscriminately.
