About Hair Loss

 

Hair loss is a common condition that can affect virtually anyone when the normal process of hair growth gets disrupted. Shedding about 100 hairs each day as part of the normal growth as the average scalp has 100,000 hairs.

With each hair follicle producing a single hair that grows about half-inch per month as 90% of your hair is actually growing while the other 10% are in the resting state.

After 2-3 months, this resting hair falls out as the hair follicle sheds the current hair strand attached to it while its follicle begin growing new hair as other follicles begin entering the resting state. Most people shed about 50-100 strands each day when resting hairs fall out. The cycle can be interrupted by a number of causes which can cause hair loss with medical condition being one of them.

Medical conditions such as alopecia areata, cicatricial (scarring) alopecia, thyroid disease, cancer treatment, scalp infections like ringworm and trichotillomania (hair-pulling disorder) can result in hair loss.

 

The medical term for hair loss is alopecia.

Alopecia areata occurs when the body’s own immune system attacks hair follicles which causes hair to fall out in startling patches which leaves smooth,roundish bald patches on the scalp and other areas of the body.

Most people will see their hair re-grow as the missing patchesusually grow back within the period of 6 months to a year.

Cicatricial alopecia, also known as scarring alopecia, refers to a group of rare disorders that destroy hair follicles, replacing it with scar tissue and causing a permanent hair loss which develops in otherwise healthy people.

Thyroid disease can cause your thyroid hormone levels to rise or drop as the gland makes too much or too little thyroid hormone, the hair growth cycle will be affected, resulting in hair loss. Cancer treatments like chemotherapy and radiation therapy can harm hair follicles in their quest to kill cancer cells.

This hair loss is often temporary because as soon as the therapy is finished, hair usually grows back.

Scalp infections such as tinea capitis otherwise known as ringworm which invade the hair and skin of your scalp, triggers a pattern of hair loss – itchy, round bald patches with bald areas appearing scaly and red. Ringworm has nothing to do with worms as it is a fungal infection that can occur anywhere on your body and is treated with antifungal medication.

This disease is common in children and the fungus can easily spread through direct contact.

Hair-pulling disorder, also known as trichotillomania causes people to have a compelling urge to repeatedly pull out their own hair as they often feel a constant drive to pull out the hair from the scalp, the eye brows or other areas of the body. Many men and women may experience thinning of hair in their 30s and 40s with availability of hair loss treatments ranging from medications to laser therapy, to hair transplant procedures.

 

Minoxidil (Rogaine) and Finasteride (Propecia) are medications used to stimulate hair growth.

Minoxidil applied to the scalp to help in increasing the blood flow to the hair follicles. Finasteride works by reducing the amount of the hormone dihydrotestosterone (DHT)  in the body as it is a type of steroid reductase inhibitor to help in restoring the normal function to the hair follicles.

Finasteride is approved by FDA in treating male pattern hair loss and has also been used to control female pattern hair loss Laser therapy devices that emit low-energy laser light to stimulate hair growth in order to help in fighting thinnig hair.

Another way to combat hair loss is through hair transplantation whereby productive hair follicles from the sides and back of the head are seeded into the balding areas.
