Why do you have Premature graying of hair ?

Premature graying of hair, which refers to graying of hair at an early age (before 25 years in Asians), can have various underlying causes, including:

• Genetics: Premature graying can be caused by genetic factors, as it tends to run in families.
• Vitamin deficiencies: Deficiency in certain vitamins, such as B vitamins, can lead to premature graying.
• Autoimmune disorders: Autoimmune disorders, such as vitiligo and alopecia areata, can affect hair pigmentation and lead to premature graying.
• Medical conditions: Certain medical conditions, such as thyroid disorders and anemia, can cause premature graying.
• Stress: High levels of stress can contribute to premature graying, as it can disrupt melanin production in the hair follicles.
• Smoking: Smoking has been linked to premature graying, as it can damage hair follicles and reduce melanin production.
• Chemical hair treatments: Excessive use of chemical hair treatments, such as hair dyes and bleach, can damage hair follicles and contribute to premature graying.

What can you do about it ?

There are some treatments that may help slow down or prevent further graying.

• Topical treatments: Certain topical treatments have been shown to increase hair pigmentation and reduce the graying process. 
• Nutritional supplements: Nutritional supplements, such as vitamin B12, biotin, and folic acid, may help slow down the graying process by supporting healthy hair growth.
• Mesotherapy: Mesotherapy involves injecting a mixture of vitamins, minerals, and other nutrients directly into the scalp. This treatment can help improve hair health and promote melanin production, which may help slow down the graying process.
• Hair pigmentation: Hair pigmentation involves the application of hair dyes or pigments to the hair to cover gray hair. This is a temporary solution that may require ongoing maintenance.

Additionally, maintaining a healthy lifestyle, managing stress levels, and avoiding harsh hair treatments may help slow down the graying process.
