Alopecia is the technical name for hair loss. But there is nothing technical about how conditions like Alopecia Areata and Androgenetic Alopecia can make you feel. Most women feel great distress and upset. The loss of hair begins a grieving process, many feel like they are losing a part of themselves and the life they once enjoyed.

Alopecia can range in severity, from mild thinning of the hair, the loss of small patches of hair to total, permanent hair loss.

There are many kinds of alopecia, including androgenetic alopecia, traction alopecia, however when people speak of Alopecia, they are most commonly referring to Alopecia Areata. This form of Alopecia is an autoimmune disorder that attacks the hair follicles causing baldness. This baldness may be temporary, but it may also be permanent. Most women first notice symptoms of Alopecia Areata through small patches of baldness the size of a coin on their scalp. These patches can become larger and join together, potentially causing complete hair loss over your head (Alopecia Totalis) and even your whole body (Alopecia Universalis).

There are some theories about the cause of Alopecia Areata, yet none of them are absolutely conclusive. What we do know is there is a genetic predisposition to Alopecia Areata, with children of parents who have experienced Alopecia more likely to experience the disorder than those with no hereditary history. Even if there is no family history of Alopecia Areata this doesn’t mean that you can’t be affected by the condition. Many women are simply more prone to it than others for no apparent reason. The immune response could be triggered by anything from a viral or bacterial infection, stress, relationship breakdown, a vaccination, exposure to a foreign substance or trauma to the skin. However, in many cases there does not seem to be any one factor to have caused it. The most current theory today is that it is not usually one factor that causes the Alopecia, but several that occur at the same time.

The good news is that Transitions Hair has years of experience in helping women to successfully overcome Alopecia Areata. Call us today for a free hair consultation to find out what your options are. Ph: 1300 427 778

Most women do not go bald or lose their front hairline, but it may result in significant thinning hair, with the hairs becoming progressively finer in texture, more difficult to style and eventually it becomes impossible to grow hair to the length they once had. If you begin to see small patches of baldness, it is most likely Alopecia Areata.
