There are many possible causes for hair fall in teenage male and here are the most common.
One of the most common reasons for hair loss and balding in men is as we all know, hereditary. Male pattern baldness is usually an account of hereditary but in the modern world, it is hard to say that one’s hair fall might be due to only hereditary reasons. There are plenty of other harm that we are causing our body to have premature hair fall and balding.

Teenage boys tend to be deprived of sleep which is the most important factor to spike stress and ultimately lead to hair loss.

A lot of teenage boys are getting addicted or have the habit of smoking and consuming alcohol. This could also be a cause for hair loss. Drugs are also suspected of causing hair fall.

It is advisable to minimise and keep in control the consumption of alcohol and smoking and it is always the best to stop it.
The next is depriving the body of enough nutrition. Most teenage boys do not watch their diet and are usually used to eating greasy, unhealthy junk which do not provide the body all of its necessary nutrients. Most do not drink enough water too. Hair is one fourth water and water is an important constituent that makes up the body. Proteins are extremely crucial for healthy growth of hair as the hair is made up of protein called ‘Keratin’.
Other than these, there are several reasons like medical conditions and the medication that comes along with it. Sudden weight loss and change in lifestyle can also be a possible reason.

Hair fall and going bald does not happen overnight and hence it is the best to take steps when it starts showing up, especially when it is in teenage males.
