The average person approximately loses fifty to one hundred hairs a day, and grows roughly fifty to a hundred hairs a day. When the rate of loss is the same as the rate of expansion, few people worry for the health of their hair. Sadly, when the rate of loss surpasses the rate of growth, thinning of the hair occurs.

There are a few reasons why the rate of loss of hair would surpass the rate of growth. Illness and hereditary may be a few reasons.

Hair loss can be non-permanent and permanent. Non-permanent hair loss can result from a selection of medicines like chemical treatment. Hair loss could also happen when sickness changes the body’s chemistry. These are fixed when the medicine has run its course or the sickness has healed.

Stress may cause changes in the body’s chemistry as well, ensuing in hair loss for the duration of increased stress, and relenting when the body is relaxed. These types of alopecia are now not so much of a problem, because they are able to normally be corrected without treatment or medication beyond what the health condition requires.

Alopecia, a genetic condition caused by viruses or environmental stimulants. It is an autoimmune illness that causes hair loss at the follicle and ultimately leads to complete damage to the follicle. Alopecia can result in tiny hair loss patches, and complete loss of all hair on the body.

Pattern balding, both male and female, is the other sort of genetic alopecia. This happens when raised levels of DHT, or dihydrotestosterone, start to move to the hair follicles. DHT tends to attack only the follicles on the top of the head, leading to an ‘M’ formed hairline.

The course of treatment for a specific person depends on the kind of hair loss they have. An in-depth medical history and some blood tests can help a person and their doctor select the right alopecia cure for them.
