The Reasons for Hair Loss

Reason:-

• The most common form of a l o p e c i a is hereditary and usually affects men.
• The precise cause of a l o p e c i a is not known, but us sometimes follows an emotional upset.
• Occasionally, a l o p e c i a may follow a severe illness, emotional trauma or an operation. Again this cures itself within two or three months and does not need treatment.
• The hairs themselves may be damaged by bleaches, perms or hair dryers. This damage can cause a dramatic hair loss as all the hair snaps off. Fortunately the roots are unaffected and the hair soon regrows.
• As women get older, especially after the menopause, they tend to lose hair. If this occurs at an early age, it should be investigated but only very rarely is a cause actually found.
