Hair Loss Causes, Treatments and Solutions for Men & Women

Hair Loss Overview
More than half of men and women in the world experience hair loss. About 30% of people have hair loss by 30 years of age, and about 50% have hair loss by 50 years of age. Hair loss is so common that it is usually considered a normal variation and not a disease. Other animals closely related to humans, such as the chimpanzee, also lose their hair as they age.

What Are Causes of Hair Loss?

In general, most hair loss is not associated with systemic or internal disease, nor is poor diet a frequent factor. While thyroid disease can cause hair loss, thyroid tests on people who have ordinary hair loss are usually normal. Although many medications list "hair loss" among their potential side effects, overall drugs are also not common causes of thinning or lost hair. On the other hand, with cancer treatments and immune-suppression medications, hair loss is more common.

Types of Hair Loss

One useful way to classify hair loss is by whether the loss is localized and patchy or whether it affects large areas or the whole scalp. We'll take a look at some of the most common hair loss conditions .

Alopecia Areata

A common hair loss condition, alopecia areata, usually starts as a single quarter-sized circle of perfectly smooth baldness. Alopecia patches often regrow in three to six months without treatment. Sometimes, hair regrows in white coloration. In another variant, alopecia areata can produce two or three bald patches. When these grow back, they may be replaced by others. The most extensive form of hair loss is called alopecia totalis, in which the entire scalp becomes bald. It's important to emphasize that patients who have localized hair loss generally don't lose hair throughout the scalp. Alopecia can affect hair on other parts of the body, too (for example, the beard).

Alopecia Areata (Continued) Alopecia areata is considered an autoimmune condition in which the immune system attacks the hair follicles. Most alopecia patients do not have systemic problems and need no medical tests. Alopecia is also often blamed on "stress," but in fact, it's usually the other way around. Having alopecia causes the stress, at least until people find out what it is.
Treatments for alopecia areata include injecting steroids into affected patches to stimulate hair growth. This is not practical for large areas. Other treatments, such as oral steroids or ultraviolet light therapy, are either toxic or impractical. In most mild situations, patients can comb over the affected areas. In more severe alopecia, patients may wear hairpieces. Some men shave their whole scalp as that this look has become fashionable.

Traction Alopecia Tight braids and ponytails can pull hard enough on hairs to make them fall out. If this happens, it's best to choose hairstyles that put less pressure on hair roots. The sooner this is done the better in order to avoid permanent damage.



Trichotillomania This melodramatic name refers to the habit of pulling at hairs or twisting them, sometimes without realizing it. The scalp and eyelashes are often affected. Unlike alopecia areata patches, which are perfectly smooth, hair patches in trichotillomania show broken-off hairs. Treatment is entirely behavioral: You have to recognize that you're doing it and then stop!

Tinea Capitis (Fungal Infection)                                 Tinea capitis is also known as ringworm of the scalp. This fungal infection generally affects school-age children and may spread in schools. It appears as scalp scaling associated with bald spots usually showing broken-off hairs. Oral antibiotics are needed to penetrate the hair roots and cure the infection after which hair grows back.

Telogen Effluvium

Under normal conditions, scalp hairs live for about three years (the anagen, or growing, phase); they then enter the telogen, or resting, phase. During the three-month telogen period, the hair root shrivels up into a small white "club," then the hair falls out. It is, therefore, normal to lose about 100 hairs every day, more of them on days when shampooing loosens the hairs that are ready to fall out. The hairs are then replaced by natural regrowth.
Sometimes people worried about losing their hair start noticing hairs on their pillow or in the sink, not realizing that they've always been there. A close look at these will usually reveal the white "club" at the end, showing that these hairs were already dead. Normally, about 10% of scalp hairs are in the telogen phase.

Telogen Effluvium (Continued)

There are several circumstances that produce a "shock to the system" that alters the hair growth rhythm. As a result, as much as 30%-40% of the hairs can cycle into telogen. Three months later, hairs come out in a massive shedding (effluvium), especially near the front of the scalp. These include

• childbirth,
• high fever,
• sudden weight loss (crash dieting)
• surgery.

None of these has to be life-threatening, nor does hair loss always follow them. Moreover, hair loss can happen after one pregnancy but not the next. But when the hair falls out, it's all over the place -- covering the pillow, clogging the drain, and so forth. Paradoxically, the more dramatic the hair loss, the better the prognosis, because when the body gets back into normal rhythm, most if not all of that hair comes back. No special treatment is needed. Normal shampooing can continue, because this only loosens hairs that were going to come out anyway.

Androgenetic Alopecia ("Male-Pattern Baldness," "Female-Pattern Baldness")

Everyone loses hair, but men do it better -- faster, earlier, and more extensively. Doctors refer to common baldness as "androgenetic alopecia," which implies that a combination of hormones and heredity (genetics) is needed to develop the condition. (The male hormones involved are present in both men and women.)

Male-Pattern Baldness

Even men who never go bald thin out over the years. Unlike those with reversible telogen shedding, those with common male-pattern hair loss don't notice much hair coming out; they just see that it's not there anymore. Adolescent boys notice some receding near the temples as their hairlines change from the straight-across boys' pattern to the more "M-shaped" pattern of adult men. This normal development does not mean they are losing hair.

 Myths About Male-Pattern Baldness

• You inherit baldness through your mother's male relatives. Actually, baldness can come from either side of the family or both. Looking at your family can give you at best an educated guess about how you'll turn out.
• Longer hair puts a strain on roots. It doesn't. And hats don't choke off the circulation to the scalp to cause hair loss either.
• Shampooing does not accelerate balding.
• "Poor circulation" does not cause hair loss, and massaging doesn't stop it.

Female-Pattern Baldness

Women lose hair on an inherited (genetic) basis, too, but the female pattern is more diffuse, with less likelihood of the frontal hairline being lost. Although some women may notice hair thinning as early as their 20s, the pace of hair loss tends to be gradual, often taking years to become obvious to others. (It's common to hear women with what appear to have a full head of hair exclaim, "This is nothing...You should have seen how thick it used to be!").

Notions about baldness being inherited through the mother's family, just like stories about hats choking off follicles or long hair pulling on the roots, are just folklore.

Myths About Female-Pattern Baldness

• Longer hair does not put a strain on roots.
• Shampooing does not accelerate hair loss; it just removes those that were ready to fall out anyway.
• Coloring, getting a permanent, and conditioning the hair do not usually cause hair loss. Styles that pull tight may cause some loss, but hair coloring and "chemicals" don't cause hair loss.

Hair Loss Treatment

If hair loss is caused by another illness, treatment of the illness is the best treatment for hair loss. If hair loss is the only problem, then there are many ways to treat it depending on how severe the loss is. The most important consideration to make when deciding the type of treatment is how much your hair loss bothers you.

Treatment options include medications, surgery, grooming techniques, wigs, and hairpieces.

Surgery for Hair Loss

Surgical approaches include various versions of hair transplantation (taking hair from the back and putting it near the front) or scalp reduction (cutting away bald areas and stitching the rest together). Transplant procedures have improved greatly in recent years. They can produce much more attractive and natural-looking results than older methods that sometimes left a "checkerboard" look. Many transplant patients now take Propecia to keep what they've transplanted. When considering a hair transplant, check the surgeon's credentials and experience carefully.

 Thyroid Symptoms and Solutions

When Your Thyroid Goes Awry 

Does fatigue drag you down day after day? Do you have brain fog, weight gain, chills, or hair loss? Or is the opposite true for you: Are you often revved up, sweaty, or anxious? Your thyroid gland could be to blame. This great regulator of body and mind sometimes goes haywire, particularly in women. Getting the right treatment is critical to feel your best and avoid serious health problems.

What Is the Thyroid Gland?

The thyroid is a butterfly-shaped gland in the front of the neck. It produces hormones that control the speed of your metabolism -- the system that helps the body use energy. Thyroid disorders can slow down or rev up your metabolism by disrupting the production of thyroid hormones. When hormone levels become too low or too high, you may experience a wide range of symptoms.

Symptom: Weight Gain or Loss

An unexplained change in weight is one of the most common signs of a thyroid disorder. Weight gain may signal low levels of thyroid hormones, a condition called hypothyroidism. In contrast, if the thyroid produces more hormones than the body needs, you may lose weight unexpectedly. This is known as hyperthyroidism. Hypothyroidism is far more  common.

Symptom: Swelling in the Neck                                                                                                             A swelling or enlargement in the neck is a visible clue that something may be wrong with the thyroid. A goiter may occur with either hypothyroidism or hyperthyroidism. Sometimes swelling in the neck can result from thyroid cancer or nodules, lumps that grow inside the thyroid. It can also be due to a cause unrelated to the thyroid.

Symptom: Hair Loss                                                                                                Hair loss is another sign that your thyroid hormones may be out of balance. Both hypothyroidism and hyperthyroidism can cause hair to fall out. In most cases, the hair will grow back once the thyroid disorder is treated.

Symptom: Changes in Heart Rate                                                                                                Thyroid hormones affect nearly every organ in the body and can influence how quickly the heart beats. People with hypothyroidism may notice their heart rate is slower than usual. Hyperthyroidism may cause the heart to speed up. It can also trigger increased blood pressure and the sensation of a pounding heart, known as heart palpitations.

Thyroid Neck Check

A careful look in the mirror may help you spot an enlarged thyroid that needs a doctor's attention. Tip your head back, take a drink of water, and as you swallow, examine your neck below the Adam's apple and above the collarbone. Look for bulges or protrusions, then repeat the process a few times. See a doctor promptly if you see a bulge or lump.

Thyroid Disorder Complications

When left untreated, hypothyroidism can raise your cholesterol levels and make you more likely to have a stroke or heart attack. In severe cases, very low levels of thyroid hormones can trigger a loss of consciousness and life-threatening drop in body temperature. Untreated hyperthyroidism can cause serious heart problems and brittle bones.

Treating Hypothyroidism                                                                                             If you are diagnosed with hypothyroidism, your doctor will most likely prescribe thyroid hormones in the form of a pill. This usually leads to noticeable improvements within a couple of weeks. Long-term treatment can result in more energy, lower cholesterol levels, and gradual weight loss. Most people with hypothyroidism will need to take thyroid hormones for the rest of their lives. Removing the thyroid gland can cure hyperthyroidism, but the procedure is only recommended if antithyroid drugs don't work, or if there is a large goiter. Surgery may also be recommended for patients with thyroid nodules. Once the thyroid is removed, most patients require daily supplements of thyroid hormones to avoid developing hypothyroidism.

What About Thyroid Cancer?

Thyroid cancer is uncommon and is among the least deadly. The main symptom is a lump or swelling in the neck, and only about 5% of thyroid nodules turn out to be cancerous. When thyroid cancer is diagnosed, it is most often treated with surgery followed by radioactive iodine therapy or, in some cases, external radiation therapy.

No. 1 Antioxidants

Aloe Vera Juice when made from 100% inner leaf gel is known for its abundant source of antioxidants. Antioxidants are so important and beneficial to the body and are needed to help us fight off free radicals that can cause us harm and chronic disease like heart disease, cancer, stroke etc. etc. The antioxidants in Aloe Vera help pick up these free radicals that cause cell destruction and help our body’s natural defence and immune system to fight them off.

  


Aloe Vera is a great source of vitamins. Vitamin A, C, E, B1, B2, B3, B6, B12, and folic acid can all be found in Aloe Vera. We pick just three here and explain their importance. All three Vitamins A, C, and E are essential and play extremely important health roles within the body. Vitamin A helps aid in the development of bones and keeps them healthy, its also important for the reproductive system and helps our vision. Vitamin C is most commonly known to help with our immune system to help us fight off chronic diseases. Vitamin E is also thought to help with proper immune function and is a powerful antioxidant which leads us to our number one reason to drink Aloe Vera Juice.
 Good health starts with good nutrition. With today’s farming methods depleting the natural mineral content of our lands, we can no longer rely on our foods to completely provide us with the essential vitamins and minerals that our bodies need. More people are turning to nutritional supplements as a means of getting sufficient quantities of those vital nutrients that can make a difference to their quality of health.

Our nutritional supplement products are made from the finest ingredients, grown or collected from the best sources and produced with the most advanced technology. Each product retains its original nutritional value, encouraging both good health and peace of mind.

Our skin is the front line defense in our daily fight against pollution and other environmental irritants, so we need to protect and reinforce it with extra care. Aloe vera, whose most traditional use as a natural remedy is to soothe the skin, is an ideal defense. We have designed unique and varied products that work naturally by moisturizing and providing essential nutrients and vitamins to the skin. Our skin care products can help protect the skin against the environment’s harsh effects, and are reinforced with the International Aloe Science Council Seal of Approval

 
Aloe Vera is full of antioxidants Guess what plant has Vitamin A, C, and E within its inner gel? You guessed it! The Aloe Vera plant has all three vitamins that are essential antioxidants. No wonder Cleopatra had radiant skin! She was unknowingly using Aloe Vera for its antioxidants which are anti-aging. This is not only important externally for young, healthy, vibrant skin but also internally to pick up the free radicals that cause cancer. Some studies are now suggesting that Aloe Vera can be linked with anti-tumerous activity. It is the same reason why nutritionists emphasize the importance of eating high antioxidant containing foods such as berries. The same antioxidants can be consumed through the Aloe Vera gel.

The easiest, freshest way to consume the inner gel is to make a smoothie as demonstrated in our blog on digestion. Just fillet the Aloe Vera gel out of the leaf and mix it into your favorite smoothie recipe.

Royal Jelly is a substance derived from the pharyngeal glands of the honey bee. This "super food" of the bees is specially blended with enzymes and fed to each bee destined to become a queen. It is the exclusive food of the queen bee throughout her highly productive life, enabling her to lay up to 3,000 eggs per day during her six-year lifespan. Worker bees eating ordinary honey live only four to six weeks.

Royal Jelly can help support the immune system, increase energy, and benefit the skin and hair. Forever Living’s Royal Jelly is gathered from dry, remote, high desert regions where pristine conditions provide the ideal environment.
