Not much is known about the disease but believed to emanate from deficiencies in the body’s immune system, the body attacks its own hair follicles and suppresses or stops hair growth.. It occurs more frequently in people with affected family members, which suggests that heredity may be a factor.

Why do women lose hair, do they end up getting bald or sport bald spots? Is it similar to those that cause male baldness? Being aware of the scientific facts will help us understand the process of hair growth.

Hair experts believe that hair tresses grow at the rate of about ½ inch per month with hair having a growth phase of two to six years. After this period, there is a point when the hair rests then falls out. The follicle from where it fell then starts growing a new strand. This cycle continues until well into old age.

Baldness

The most common type of hair loss in men is male pattern baldness. It begins at the hairline, as the hair gradually recedes to form an “M” shape. The remaining hair becomes finer and shorter and the hair at the crown begins to thin. When the top of the hairline meets the thinned crown a horseshoe pattern around the sides of the head is formed.

When hair loss occurs in patches, breaking of hair shafts, a diffuse shedding of hair, or hair loss with redness, pain and scaling, it would be best to consult a dermatologist as this could be caused by other conditions.
