Alopecia- Hair Loss

Hair loss: Alopecia

Healthy hair grows from hair follicles in the
scalp during a 2 to 6 year growth cycle after
which the hair shafts become loose and fall
out followed by a cycle during which the
follicles prepare to produce new hair.

Stress (factors that have a negative impact on
the body), genes, age and hormonal changes
associated with impaired biological processes
are considered the primary causes of hair loss.

Shortages of nutrients, essential minerals such
as zinc and selenium and especially vitamin A
can cause hair to become brittle and fall out.





An excess of vitamin A can also be harmful.

1. Alopecia areata is an autoimmune disorder
that can effect anybody, however,
genes and severe emotional stress seems
to be the main stressors. Visible bald spots
or even total hair loss can occur. The
condition is usually temporary but can
become permanent.

2. Androgenic alopecia
Active growth of primary hair (especially in
men but not limited to men) becomes constrained
when testosterone is converted
to DHT as it causes the preparation cycle
of the hair follicles to become longer and
the growth cycle to become shorter.
Secondary hair growth is then stimulated,
beards become harder and ear/nose hair
and eyebrows grows faster.

The condition is more noticeable under men.
