Effects of Radioactivity and Ultraviolet Rays on Hair Loss

Radiation, or UV light, affects the scalp. It is said that when exposed to radioactivity, not only the hair on the head but also the hair of the whole body comes off. Also, if you receive ultraviolet rays for a long time, your scalp will flake and your hair will easily fall off.

Effects of Radioactivity and Ultraviolet Rays on Hair Loss

When radiation therapy is given to cancer patients, the hair may come off at once. The body becomes abnormal under the influence of radiation. When you stop radiation therapy, your hair returns again, but if cancer cells remain, you may need to give it another radiation treatment.

Cancer is a serious, life-threatening disease. Radiation therapy may be ineffective to maintain the patient's life for as long as possible. However, it is sad that my hair comes off.

Ultraviolet rays come from the sun rays when it is sunny during the day. It is said that the scalp becomes inflamed when exposed to ultraviolet rays, and it is easy to lose hair.

It is not very clear how much UV light will nourish the scalp. Every day, some people stay away from work and do not lose their hair. Conversely, it is said that people who do not go out on a daily basis tend to lose hair when suddenly receiving strong ultraviolet rays. Sudden irritation to the scalp may lead to hair loss.

Both radioactivity and ultraviolet rays, if possible, you do not want to be exposed. However, in some situations you may have to take a bath. In that case, we want to reduce irritation so that the effect on the hair and scalp is as small as possible.
