Women may experience hair loss due to several factors, including genetics, aging, physical or emotional stress, medications, cancer treatment and autoimmune disorders. Androgenetic alopecia is the most common type of hair loss in women that typically occurs gradually between the ages of 12 and 40. This condition is often related to genetics and can be accompanied by symptoms such as irregular menstruation, hirsutism, acne, infertility or excessive breast milk production.
Alopecia areata is another common type of hair loss in women that results from an autoimmune disorder that attacks hair follicles. This condition can occur at any age but is most common in children and young adults. Treatment for alopecia areata includes injectable or topical corticosteroid drugs, topical immunotherapy or biological response modifiers. While these treatments can help manage the condition, they may not restore all hair in patients with complete hair loss on the scalp.
It’s essential for women experiencing hair loss to consult with a healthcare professional to determine the underlying cause and develop a personalized treatment plan.
