Hair Loss / Hair
Falling / Male Pattern Baldness (MPB) / Female Pattern Baldness (FPB) /
Baldness
Hair fall or Baldness typically refers to excessive hair loss
from your scalp and can be the result of heredity, certain medications or an
underlying medical condition. Anyone — men, women and children — can experience
hair loss.
Causes and Symptoms of hair
loss
1-Pattern baldness
(androgenetic alopecia).
In male- and
female-pattern baldness, the time of growth shortens, and the hairs are not as
thick or sturdy. With each growth cycle, the hairs become rooted more
superficially and more easily fall out. Heredity likely plays a key role. A
history of androgenetic alopecia on either side of your family increases your
risk of balding. Heredity also affects the age at which you begin to lose hair
and the developmental speed, pattern and extent of your baldness.
Symptoms
Male-pattern baldness-
MPB-(androgenetic alopecia)...For men, pattern baldness can begin very early, even in the
teens or early 20s. It's typically characterized by a receding hairline at the
temples and balding at the top of the head. The end result may be partial or
complete baldness
Female-pattern
baldness-FPB- (androgenetic alopecia). Women with permanent hair loss usually have hair loss limited
to thinning at the front, sides or crown. Women usually maintain their frontal
hairline and rarely experience complete baldness.
2-Cicatricial (scarring)
alopecia.
This type of permanent
hair loss occurs when inflammation damages and scars the hair follicle. This
prevents new hair from growing. This condition can be seen in several skin
conditions, including lupus erythematosus or lichen planus. It's not known what
triggers or causes this inflammation.
Symptoms: This rare condition
occurs when inflammation damages and scars the hair follicle, causing permanent
hair loss. Sometimes the patchy hair loss is associated with slight itching or
pain.
3-Alopecia areata.
This is classified as an
autoimmune disease, but the cause is unknown. People who develop alopecia
areata are generally in good health. A few people may have other autoimmune
disorders including thyroid disease. Some scientists believe that some people
are genetically predisposed to develop alopecia areata and that a trigger, such
as a virus or something else in the environment, sets off the condition. A
family history of alopecia areata makes you more likely to develop it. With
alopecia areata, your hair generally grows back, but you may lose and regrow
your hair a number of times.
Symptoms: Hair loss usually occurs in small, round, smooth patches about
the size of a quarter. Usually the disease doesn't extend beyond a few bare
patches on the scalp, but it can cause patchy hair loss on any area that has
hair, including eyebrows, eyelashes and beard. In rare cases, it can progress
to cause hair loss over the entire body. If the hair loss includes your entire
scalp, the condition is called alopecia totalis. If it involves your whole
body, it's called alopecia universalis. Soreness and itching may precede the
hair loss.
4-Telogen effluvium.
This type of hair loss is
usually due to a change in your normal hair cycle. It may occur when some type
of shock to your system — emotional or physical — causes hair roots to be
pushed prematurely into the resting state. The affected growing hairs from
these hair roots fall out. In a month or two, the hair follicles become active
again and new hair starts to grow. Telogen effluvium may follow emotional
distress, such as a death in the family, or after a physiological stress, such
as a high fever, sudden or excessive weight loss, nutritional deficiencies,
surgery, or metabolic disturbances. Hair typically grows back once the
condition that caused it corrects itself, but it usually take months.
Symptoms: This type of temporary hair loss occurs suddenly. Handfuls of
hair may come out when combing or washing your hair or may fall out after
gentle tugging. This type of hair loss usually causes overall hair thinning and
not bald patches.
5-Traction alopecia.
Excessive hairstyling or
hairstyles that pull your hair too tightly cause traction alopecia. If the
pulling is stopped before there's scarring of your scalp and permanent damage
to the root, hair usually grows back normally.
Symptoms: Bald patches can occur
if you regularly wear certain hairstyles, such as pigtails, braids or cornrows,
or if you use tight rollers. Hair loss typically occurs between the rows or at
the part where hair is pulled tightly.
Other causes of hair loss
- Poor nutrition.
Having inadequate protein or iron in your diet or poor nourishment in
other ways can cause you to experience hair loss. Fad diets, crash diets
and certain illnesses, such as eating disorders, can cause poor nutrition.
- Medications.
Certain drugs used to treat gout, arthritis, depression, heart problems
and high blood pressure may cause hair loss in some people. Taking birth
control pills also may result in hair loss for some women.
- Disease.
Diabetes and lupus can cause hair loss.
- Medical treatments. Undergoing chemotherapy or
radiation therapy may cause you to develop alopecia. Under these
conditions, healthy, growing (anagen) hairs can be affected. After your
treatment ends, your hair typically begins to regrow.
- Hormonal changes. Hormonal changes and imbalances
can cause temporary hair loss. This could be due to pregnancy, having a
baby, discontinuing birth control pills, beginning menopause, or an
overactive or under active thyroid gland. The hair loss may be delayed by
three months following a hormonal change, and it'll take another three
months for new hair to grow back. During pregnancy, it's normal to have
thicker, more luxuriant hair. It's also common to lose more hair than
normal about three months after delivery. If a hormonal imbalance is
associated with an overproduction of testosterone, there may be a thinning
of hair over the crown of the scalp. Correcting hormonal imbalances may
stop hair loss.
- Hair treatments. Chemicals used for dying,
tinting, bleaching, straightening or permanent waves can cause hair to
become damaged and break off if they are overused or used incorrectly. Over
styling and excessive brushing also can cause hair to fall out if the hair
shaft becomes damaged.
- Scalp infection. Infections, such as ringworm, can
invade the hair and skin of your scalp, leading to hair loss. Once
infections are treated, hair generally grows back. Ringworm, a fungal
infection, can usually be treated with a topical or oral antifungal
medication.
- Trichotillomania (hair-pulling disorder). Trichotillomania is a type of mental illness in which
people have an irresistible urge to pull out their hair, whether it's from
their scalp, their eyebrows or other areas of their body. Hair pulling
from the scalp often leaves them with patchy bald spots on their head,
which they may go to great lengths to disguise. Causes of trichotillomania
are still being researched, and no specific cause has yet been found.
