What Is It?
Hair loss, or alopecia, refers to the gradual or sudden loss of hair from the scalp or body, which can be temporary or permanent. It often affects the scalp and is influenced by genetics, age, hormonal changes, and lifestyle factors. Hair loss can range from thinning and patchiness to complete baldness, and it’s common in both men and women, particularly with aging. Many people find hair loss impacts self-confidence and seek treatments to slow or reverse the process. Options include medications, hair transplants, and lifestyle changes.
