Abstract :
Graying hair that begins before the age of 20 is
known as premature graying of the hair (PMGH).Having
gray hair does not indicate that one is getting older. The
physiological changes taking place in people's bodies are
the primary reason for the prevalence of PMGH. The
etiology of gray hair is mostly caused by a decrease in
melanogenically active melanocytes in the hair bulb of
gray anagen hair follicles, with loss of hair colour. Stress
is another factor in the early onset of gray hair. The
study was conducted at Sree Ramakrishna Medical
College of Naturopathy and Yogic Sciences and Hospital,
Kulasekharam, Tamil Nadu, India, and was distributed
as a questionnaire to females in the 18 to 25 age group.
The females were given verbal consent after being
informed of the study's goal. There were 30 respondents
in total for this survey. There are 30 questions in the
survey. The questionnaire's parameters covered
nutritional deficiencies, genetic issues, drugs, stress, and
hair loss. Female volunteers who were uncooperative or
unwilling were not included in the study.
