Neither chlorinated water nor tight swimming caps cause hair loss. If some hair comes off when you remove the cap, these are telogen hairs which would have fallen out anyway. However, chlorinated water together with sun exposure or hair products can damage the structure of very long hair and make it brittle.
Pantogar® capsules are also recommended in this case, as the effect of Pantogar® capsules on hair structure damage has been proven in numerous studies.

Does washing the hair every day damage hair?
Daily hair washing with a mild shampoo is not damaging, but is often unnecessary. If your hair does not quickly become very greasy, there is no need to wash it every day.
Is there such a thing as seasonal hair loss?
There are studies which prove that there is a clear link between the seasons and hair loss. Hair loss of up to 100 hairs per day is completely normal, but there may be seasonal fluctuations in which much more hair falls out temporarily. One current study over 6 years involving more than 800 women has shown that many women experience increased hair loss in July and – to a lesser extent – in April. Possible triggers can only be surmised. However, it is assumed that the increased rate of hair replacement is triggered by the increase in daylight during the longer days in spring and summer.
This seasonal hair loss is no reason for concern and usually lasts only a few weeks. If the hair loss lasts longer, you should consult a physician in order to identify other triggers.
Just after the birth of my child, I noticed that my hair loss increased. Is this normal?
Pantogar® capsules are used to treat diffuse hair loss, and is clinically proven to be effective in this indication. After pregnancy, often hair loss occurs due to hormonal changes. However, other causes may be the reason for hair loss. During pregnancy and breastfeeding you should ask your doctor before taking Pantogar® capsules.
Can diets or malnutrition lead to hair loss?
In principle, extreme diets can lead to diffuse hair loss. On switching to normal balanced nutrition, the hair would grow back again. Unfortunately, this is not possible in many cases, e.g. where malnutrition is due to a disease. In these cases, it is advisable to discuss using a hair loss remedy, e.g. Pantogar® capsules, with your physician.
Are there medications that trigger hair loss?
Yes, there are. Certain medications or operations using general anesthetic sometimes result in a disruption of the hair growth cycle. The hair enters the telogen phase early and falls out around 2-4 months later – the hair loss is visible. Unfortunately, the underlying mechanisms are not understood in most cases. As it is often not possible to change the medication, you should discuss taking a medication against hair loss such as Pantogar® capsules with your attending physician.
Can chronic functional intestinal diseases lead to hair loss?
This occurs very rarely, when disruptions in the uptake of essential nutritional components lead to severe deficiency symptoms.
Can hair loss result from an iron deficiency?
An iron deficiency affects the whole body and can lead to hair loss and dry, straw-like hair in extreme cases. Treatment of an iron deficiency is a laborious process and involves iron intake to restore the iron reserves in the body to a healthy level.
Studies show that Pantogar® capsules also effectively improve diffuse hair loss independently of the iron serum level without affecting the iron level.
With Pantogar® capsules, you support the natural function of the hair root during this difficult phase. The unique, highly concentrated active substance complex can stop hair loss and allow the healthy hair to grow back.
