Common Causes of Hair Loss

Hair loss is a common condition, but one that can be helped through cosmetic surgery. There are a number of possible causes of hair loss, and some may be reversible while others require surgery to correct. If you are experiencing hair loss, it may be caused by:

• Genetics
  Your genes can determine whether you'll experience hair loss or if you'll keep a full head of hair for your entire life. Genetics lead to both male and female pattern baldness. Cosmetic surgery is a good choice for dealing with hair loss related to genetic factors.
   
• Medications
  Some medications can cause hair loss. Discuss the medications you are taking with your doctor to see if hair loss is a side effect. If this is the case, find out if there is an alternative drug that you can take that won't cause your hair to fall out. Hair loss will stop and hair will regrow after the medication is stopped in some cases, but can be permanent in other situations. If permanent damage has been done, you'll need to consider hair restoration procedures.
   
• Medical Conditions
  A variety of medical conditions can cause hair loss. Some, like alopecia, have varying degrees of severity and can be localized to certain parts of the body. People can also suffer from mental conditions that cause them to pull their own hair out. This trauma can lead to damage to the hair follicles, which can result in the need for cosmetic surgery or other hair restoration treatments.
   
• Menopause
  For women, the hormonal shifts that take place in their bodies during menopause can lead to hair loss. Hormones are linked to hair loss in both men and women, but women can experience greater hair loss during their menopausal years. The stress and anxiety related to menopause can also lead to hair loss in women.
