Baldness is the state of having no hair or lacking hair where it often grows, especially on the head. The most common form of baldness involves progressive hair thinning and is called androgenic alopecia or "male pattern baldness". This syndrome occurs in adult male humans and other species. The degree and pattern of baldness can vary greatly; it includes male and female pattern alopecia(androgenic alopecia). This syndrome is also called androgenetic alopecia or alopecia androgenetica. An older term is alopecia seborrheica, used primarily in Europe. Another cause of hair loss is alopecia areata, which involves patchy hair loss. Extreme forms of alopecia areata are Alopecia totalis, which involves the loss of all head hair, and the most extreme form, alopecia universalis, which involves the loss of all hair from the head and the body.
Baldness, which is medically known as alopecia, affects both sexes, male and female, and can be caused by any of the following:
- Age can cause baldness and hair loss, by it's effects on hormones and the weakening immune system. This type of baldness and hairloss is often reversible, using hair loss treatments targeting the hormone problem. However, age also affects our hair loss in a more permanent way - some of our hair follicles die, and this hair loss cannot be reversed. For those of you interested in stats, 40% of men have significant hair loss or some baldness BEFORE they turn 40 years old.
- Illness can cause baldness. In terms of illnesses that cause baldness and or hair loss, infections of the scalp, scarlet fever, and typhoid fever are three prominent ones. This type of baldness is also often reversed when the illness is recovered from - most can expect all their hair to regrow back..
- Genetics - can certainly be a cause of baldness in a small number of individuals. Baldness that is genetically determined is rare, and often irreversible.
- Lifestyle can cause baldness in some individuals - such as tight braiding, poor diet, and so on. Often the baldness and or hair loss is reversible, but it does depend on what actually caused it. For example, tight braiding can sometimes scar the scalp, destroy the hair follicles, making normal hair regrowth essentially impossible.
- Environmental factors can cause baldness, such as exposure to caustic gases, xrays and pollutants. Whether the baldness is reversible, again depends on what causes it. As a general rule of thumb, if the hair follicles are not destroyed, hair regrowth is possible.
- Some medications can also cause hair loss and premature baldness. Chemotherapy is well reknowned for causing hair loss and baldness. Mostly a reversible form of hair loss and baldness.
- Hair products can also sometimes cause hair loss and baldness - the more chemicalized, the more the potential for trouble. My brother in law went bald prematurely as a result of using such a product, my wife came close as well to becoming bald. As long as the hair follicles are left alive and well, hair regrowth is possible and likely.
- Fungal infections or tumors of the scalp that cause baldness are easy to cure via medicine, although it may take an extremely long time - weeks to months to years - for the drugs to take full effect and for hair to regrow fully.
- And Hormonal changes can definitely cause baldness.Treatment DosageAloe Vera Shampoo ....Use daily ,Massage head ,then wash off.Nature Min .....2 tabs,3 times daily after meal.Aloe Vera Gelly ...Apply to Head morning and nightBee Pollen ..2 tabs,3 times daily after meal.Forever Lite ..Take once daily with milk.For Product Information Visit..http://enycan01-yourhealthandwellness.blogspot.com
