Hair Loss (Alopecia)
Hair loss, also called alopecia, is a common condition that causes thinning or loss of hair on the scalp or other parts of the body. It can affect people of all ages and genders and may happen suddenly or gradually over time. Hair loss can be caused by a variety of factors, including genetics, hormonal changes, stress, medical conditions, medications, or nutritional deficiencies. While some types of hair loss are temporary, others may be permanent. Treatments are available to slow hair loss, promote regrowth, or improve appearance, depending on the cause.
