[스타데일리뉴스=황규준 기자] In Oriental medicine, hair is viewed as one of the external signs that can measure the health of the body. In other words, it means that the condition of the hair was looked at to determine whether the human body was healthy or not. For example, in Donguibogam, it is said that “the hair is the remainder of the blood,” and that the condition of the blood can be determined by the condition of the hair, and in the Internal Classics, “God governs the hair.” “Also, God is associated with bones, and his condition is externally expressed in his hair.”

This also seems to be related to hair loss in modern people. In Oriental medicine, if lifestyle habits such as stress, lack of sleep, drinking and smoking, fatty foods, and overeating continue, it is easy to develop a state of upper heat and lower limit where the head is hot and the stomach is cold, which can lead to various diseases. I think it can be done. One of them is hair loss.
There are several types of hair loss. Among the various types, the one that mainly occurs in men is ‘frontal hair loss.’ It is performed mainly on the frontal forehead hairline, and can be clinically divided into three types: M-shaped, U (or C)-shaped, and V-shaped.
M-shaped hair loss is most common in men, but it also occurs in some women. In the case of women, rather than a clear receding hairline, patterns such as hair falling out above the hairline in a diamond shape or hairline fluff or thinning appear.
Director Kang Yeo-reum of Balmers Oriental Medicine Clinic’s Jamsil branch said, “As seen in Oriental medicine, there are two characteristics of people who are prone to hair loss in the frontal region. First, front-faced humans. They are thoughtful, logical, and tend to be perfectionists. If you think too much and use your nerves excessively, relatively more heat is generated in the frontal area, which can lead to hair loss. Second, people with weak intestines. According to Oriental medicine, the M-shaped area at both corners of the forehead is where the stomach meridian flows. This is a meridian that is prone to heat generation, and is often associated with fever in the digestive system. Therefore, if you frequently enjoy overeating, binge eating, fatty foods, drinking, and late-night snacking, stomach heat may increase and hair loss may occur in the M-shaped area.”
For frontal hair loss, the timing of treatment is important. As hair loss begins, the hairline gradually rises, and treatment of affected areas such as the forehead may become difficult due to the decline in hair root function. Therefore, if hair loss occurs along with the above symptoms, it is helpful to visit a hospital and receive treatment.
As the main causes seen in Oriental medicine are stress and digestive system, it is also important to manage these two well. Positive thinking, light exercise, eating breakfast, eating good food, and consuming unrefined grains help manage hair loss, so it is best to improve along with treatment.
