What Causes Hair Loss?

Hair loss is a common issue that can affect both men and women and can appear in many different forms.  

For men, the most common cause of hair loss is male pattern baldness (MPB), also called androgenic alopecia. Dihydrotestosterone (DHT) is an androgen hormone that is made from testosterone and causes the follicle to shrink over time until it stops producing hair. Genetics can play a role in this type of hair loss, so if your father or grandfather experienced it, you may too.

Women may experience general thinning all over their head or localised areas of baldness due to female pattern baldness (FPB). Like MPB, this condition is caused by sensitivity to DHT. However, some other hormones may also be involved. In women, FPB usually manifests itself as diffuse thinning at the crown rather than specific bald spots like in men.  

Other causes of hair loss include health conditions such as thyroid disease, medications such as birth control pills or chemotherapy, stress, nutritional deficiencies, rapid weight loss, excessive styling that pulls on the scalp, and more.
