Excessive hair loss
Excessive hair loss
- Act on time -
Alopecia (excessive hair loss) is a problem that affects both women and men, at any age. Although often ignored or overlooked, alopecia can have a significant emotional impact, affecting self-confidence and quality of life.
How do we know that we are dealing with alopecia?
Hair loss is a natural process – we lose an average of 50-100 hairs per day. However, if you notice:
- excess hair on the brush, pillow, or in the shower
- visibly thinning portions or areas completely devoid of hair (baldness)
- a progressively receding hairline
- hair thinning and loss of volume
then you may be dealing with a form of alopecia. It is important to act early, treatments are more effective in the early stages.
Common types of alopecia
Alopecia is not a single condition, there are several forms, each with different causes and evolution.
- Androgenetic alopecia – the most common, with hormonal and genetic causes
- Alopecia areata – sudden hair loss in well-defined areas, usually due to autoimmune causes
- Diffuse alopecia – generalized hair loss, often caused by stress, hormonal imbalances or nutritional deficiencies.
- Scarring alopecia – a rare form, in which hair follicles are permanently destroyed.
Why does alopecia occur?
Among the most common causes are:
- Genetic and hormonal factors, especially in the case of androgenetic alopecia
- Prolonged stress or traumatic episodes
- Hormonal imbalances (thyroid, menopause, pregnancy)
- Vitamin and mineral deficiencies (iron, zinc, vitamin D)
- Autoimmune diseases (lupus, psoriasis, alopecia areata)
- Certain treatments – chemotherapy or some antidepressant medications
Important: alopecia is not a personal fault, but a signal that the body is going through an imbalance.
