What is Hair Fall?
Hair fall, also known as hair loss, refers to the excessive shedding of hair from the scalp or other parts of the body. It’s a common problem that can affect both men and women, and it may be temporary or permanent depending on its underlying cause.
What Causes Hair Fall?
Cancer occurs due to genetic mutations triggered by various factors. Some major causes include:
- Genetic Factors:-A hereditary condition like androgenic alopecia can cause gradual thinning.
- Hormonal Imbalances:– Pregnancy, menopause, thyroid issues, and polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) can lead to hair loss.
- Nutritional Deficiencies:- Lack of essential nutrients like iron, biotin, zinc, and vitamins A, D, and E.
- Medications and Treatments:-Drugs like chemotherapy, anticoagulants, and certain blood pressure medications can induce hair fall.
- Scalp Infections:- Fungal infections like ringworm can cause hair loss.
Symptoms of Hair Fall?
- Excessive Hair Shedding: More than the usual 50-100 strands a day.
- Thinning of Hair: Noticeable reduction in hair volume or density.
- Bald Patches or Receding Hairline: Common in conditions like androgenic alopecia or alopecia areata.
- Broken Hair or Split Ends: Especially in cases of hair damage from styling or chemical treatments.
- Itchy or Inflamed Scalp: Occurs with conditions like dandruff, seborrheic dermatitis, or infections.
Types of Hair Fall
Androgenic Alopecia (Male/Female Pattern Baldness)
The most common type of hair loss, caused by genetic factors and hormonal imbalances. It results in a gradual thinning of hair on the scalp, typically starting at the temples or crown.
Telogen Effluvium
A condition where a large number of hair follicles prematurely enter the shedding phase (telogen phase), often due to stress, illness, or hormonal changes. It results in diffuse thinning of the hair.
Alopecia Areata
An autoimmune disorder where the immune system attacks hair follicles, causing round, smooth patches of hair loss. It can sometimes lead to total baldness (Alopecia Totalis) or loss of body hair (Alopecia Universalis).
Traction Alopecia
Caused by the strain on hair due to tight hairstyles like ponytails, braids, or buns. It leads to gradual hair loss along the hairline and scalp.
Anagen Effluvium
Sudden hair loss occurring during the anagen (growth) phase, often due to chemotherapy or radiation treatments that damage hair follicles.
Cicatricial (Scarring) Alopecia
Hair loss that results in permanent damage to hair follicles, usually due to inflammation or infection of the scalp. This condition leads to scarring and a loss of hair growth.
