The relationship between iron levels in the blood and hair loss have been a known cause of hair loss in women for years, but there is a suggestion that low iron levels may play an important part in hair loss in men as well. Women lose blood every month (menstruation) and that blood loss depletes iron levels producing anemia, a direct result of depleted iron levels. It is not clear from the article (see below) how men get reduced levels of iron short of some bleeding disorder or some malnutrition. The article is worth reading, but be careful that you do not blindly take iron supplements to treat your hair loss, as overdoses of iron have dire consequences. Red meats are rich in iron and is the source for much of the iron your body needs, so if you are a meat eater, it would be doubtful that most men reading this would have an iron problem without some digestive abnormality present in their gut.
