What causes hair loss?
Male and female pattern alopecia is the medical term used to describe the most common form of hair loss. If you have the genes for hair loss, at a predetermined age and duration, hair loss will occur. When follicles in a certain area of the scalp are exposed to specific hormones (DHT especially in males), the follicles atrophy and stop producing hair. The area involved is evident in the usual areas of hair loss, termed male pattern alopecia or female pattern alopecia.
Many factors that contribute to hair loss or alopecia. You might be affected by one or more of these common factors:- Genetics - Heredity
- Stress
- Poor Diet & Nutrition
- Hormonal Imbalance - Menopausal Changes
- Lack of Sleep
- Medications
There are other more rare forms of hair loss, such as Alopecia Areata, Scarring Alopecia, Thyroid disease and others. These conditions need to be directly evaluated and individually treated.
