Hair Loss

This refers to excessive hair loss to the scalp or the body. Hair loss from the head or body is also known as alopecia or baldness. Some of the causes include low vitamin levels, protein deficiency, and anemia. Others causes may be that it is heredity, hormonal changes, high stress levels, or the result from medications and medical conditions.

Hair loss can come as gradually thinning, patchy bald spots, sudden loosening of the hair, or full-body hair loss. It is important to see a doctor when experiencing hair loss as it can be a result of an underlying medical condition.
