Diseases That Cause Alopecia
Often the condition of your hair can be an indicator of your internal health. There are over 40 different causes of hair problems. At any time, about 90% of the hair is in a growing phase. This hair growth can be influenced by a variety of factors such as age, disease, environment, or others. While hair loss can be bothersome, it can be easily managed with the help of early diagnosis and the right hair treatment.
Medically known as Alopecia, hair loss can be categorized into female or male pattern baldness, alopecia areata, telogen effluvium, cicatricial alopecia, and traumatic alopecia. Amongst the different types of alopecia, areata is one of the most common types of hair loss. It results in circular hair loss patches occurring on the scalp or other areas of the body. This condition occurs when the body’s immune system mistakenly attacks the hair follicles. The more the immune system attacks, the more hair loss. Some of the factors that can cause alopecia are as follows:
-
Hormonal disorders:
Diseases that cause a hormonal imbalance weaken the hair follicles and affect hair growth.This hormonal imbalance can result in female pattern baldness.In women, excessive hair loss can also be an indicator of PCOS.Hyperthyroidism or hypothyroidism can also trigger hair loss in men and women.
-
Auto-immune diseases:
Studies have found that auto-immune diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis and multiple sclerosis can cause hair loss. Moreover, deficiencies in vitamin D or Iron levels have also been directly linked to auto-immune diseases including alopecia.
-
The chances of suffering from hair loss are higher in people who have a family history of alopecia. People who suffer from asthma, dermatitis, anemia, allergies, diabetes or thyroid problems are also more likely to suffer from hair problems. In some cases, hair loss can also be induced by stress and poor nutrition.
Common signs of hair loss include:
- Thinning hair
- Receding hairline
