Hormones are major contributors to women's hair loss. The endocrine system produces and regulates the body's hormones. Any hormonal condition can cause hair growth to drop off—whether it’s a thyroid problem, menopause, pregnancy, or Polycystic Ovary Syndrome, PCOS, or an androgen disorder which means there is too much or too little presence of the male hormone, testosterone. Other endocrine problems that may cause loss can include hypopituitarism or hypothalamic disorders.
Nonendocrine disorders may also result in hair loss symptoms, such as inflammatory bowel diseases like Diverticulitis and Crohn's disease, yeast infections such as Candida, syphilis, liver and kidney failure, Lupus, and cancers such as Hodgkin's lymphoma and leukemia.
Other medical conditions, medication, and illnesses, while not the cause, can produce hair loss as a side-effect. Surgery, high fever, weight gain or crash dieting, anorexia or bulimia, lack of sufficient protein or nutrients, and others are a few of the many reasons you may be experiencing hair loss.
Alopecia Areata, hair loss marked by bald patches, can come on without warning. Most people with Alopecia Areata are otherwise healthy. While many clients with Alopecia Areata may see hair regrowth within a year, there are severe chronic forms with complete hair loss. Alopecia Totalis is complete hair loss on the head, and Alopecia Universalis is complete hair loss over the entire body.
Trichotillomania, considered traumatic alopecia, is self-induced, chronic hair-pulling. Traction alopecia occurs when there is tension on the scalp from styling techniques such as ponytails, braiding, on-going chemicals such as bleaching and straighteners. Cicatricial or Scarring Alopecias may be inflammatory or non-inflammatory and are characterized by a lack of pores.
