It's amazing to observe both men and women get seriously bothered about theirhair. How they spend reasonable amount of money and time thinking about the nextstyle they would want to have on their next visit to their favorite hair salonor the latest treatments and maintenance of a beautiful and healthy condition oftheir hair. They engage themselves on these things to pamper themselves or tosimply enjoy the sensation of feeling beautiful in the eyes of other people.Needless to say, how your hair looks is an important factor in your over-allappearance everyday. Indubitably, this is just one of the myriad of methods aman or a woman would try to take on to improve one�s self-esteem nowadays.
So how annoyed do you get when you see your pillow full of hair strands when youwake up and you have to pick them out one by one? To see your hairbrush alwaysthick of your own hair? Hair strands cause to clog your bathroom�s waterdrainage because your hair just can�t cease from falling when you take yourbath? To accumulate countless strands when you sweep your floor? And when youarrive at the office, the first thing your officemates notice about you is yourreceding hairline or the thinning of your hair. Then you start studying yourhairline at the mirror and you notice the changes. It�s a disease called�alopecia� or in the layman�s term �hair loss or baldness.�
Specialists do get different reactions on alopecia. It importantly depends onhow informed the patient is about the disease, its causes, possible effects ofthe same on persons, and the knowledge and acceptance of the probability ofgetting cured or not. Some experience social phobia, anxiety, and depression.
As for Maya Torres losing her hair caused by the inducement of chemotherapymedications initially added to her despondency. This 23-year-old fine lady, wasjust like any other typical femme sole that are quite conscious on how theywould look like. Who would also likely take pleasure in pampering herself withthe same method as mentioned above to boost up her self-confidence. But Maya isa young lad with colon cancer. She is fighting the battle the dreaded diseasehas against her for three (3) years now and still she has yet to taste victory.Maya was first diagnosed with Stage 2A colon cancer when she was a graduatingcollege student in 2003. The malignant tumor that grown large in her ascendingcolon was removed through surgery on the same year. For two years after thesurgery, she lived a normal life, graduated with honors, got a position as alegal secretary in a law firm and worked her way very well. One day she heardthe bad news, the tumor had recurred and must be operated on immediately.Actually it was a prognosis, Maya�s oncologist explained very well right afterthe first surgery that she had to undergo twelve (12) chemotherapy sessions tolessen the possibility of recurrence of the tumor. But Maya, a graduatingstudent then, opted not to undergo chemotherapy, thinking about her academics.So she underwent second surgery but this time the tumor cannot be taken out
completely due to the complexity of its location that might cause internalbleeding if the doctors ensued in taking it out completely. After the secondoperation, she and her family decided that Maya needed to undergo and finish therequired twelve (12) chemotherapy sessions. And she did finish it after nearly ayear and they tasted victory that would later turn out to be ephemeral.
Maya has lost approximately eighty-five (85%) percent of her hair all over herbody including her pubic hair. At first, Maya was hesitant and awkward to take alook at herself in the mirror. It was painful for her to see her head almostwithout hair and they continue to fall. But now, she has learned a new way ofapproach on her condition � acceptance, patience and unwavering faith.
With sufficient and substantial information, any patient suffering from hairloss or alopecia could cope, draw back fear, accept, and alleviate their burden,thus putting their mind at ease, and in achieving so helps boost their immunesystem.
Hence, we should all learn more about alopecia, its causes, its different types,effects, preventions and remedies.
CAUSES OF ALOPECIA
Causes of alopecia are often related to aging, heredity, and hormones. MayaTorres�s story is also an example, that is � medications for cancerchemotherapy. There are other several causes of alopecia, to wit:
Don't be surprised if you noticed that you are losing a large amount of yourhair about 3 or 4 months after an illness of a major surgery because this issaid to be stress-related and your hair will eventually grow back.
Hormone imbalance. E.g. Overactive or underactive thyroid gland; imbalancemale hormones known as androgens or female hormones known as estrogens.
Inducement of medicines like blood thinners (anti-coagulants); medicines usedfor gout, birth control pills, antidepressants, and too much Vitamin A.
Fungal infections of the scalp; Tinea Capitis (ringworm of the scalp) It is important that you consult your doctor first before taking anymedications relative to hair loss because such may be an underlying part ofyet another disease like diabetes or lupus.
Excessive use of shampoo, blow-drying, hot oil teatments or chemicals used in
permanents which causes swelling of hair follicles that resul ts to hair loss.
Emotional or physical stressContinual hair pulling or scalp rubbing which are considered as one of aperson's nervous habits.
Burns or radiation therapy
Alopecia areata (see meaning below.)
TYPES OF ALOPECIA
In adult male humans, the most common form of alopecia is the continuous hairthinning condition called androgenic alopecia or 'male pattern baldness' whilein adult female humans, the same condition is termed as alopecia and rogeneticaor 'female pattern baldness'.
Scientific studies also show that hair loss or baldness is a result of twofactors: first, genetic background and second, large quantities of androgenichormones which causes intense masculinizing effects throughout the bodyincluding testosterone. Therefore, when a female human specie has largequantities of such hormone, she develops virile characteristics such asbaldness.
Alopecia areata is also sometimes referred to as spot baldness. It is a form ofhair loss that usually starts from the scalp.
Alopecia areata is thought to be an autoimmune disease -- any disease thatresults from an aberrant response of the immune system -- in which the bodymistakenly treats its hair follicles as foreign tissue and suppresses or stopshair growth. It is hereditary.
1. When the condition spread tot he entire scalp, it is called alopeciatotalis.
2. Alopecia universalis - refers to the entire epidermis. 3. Alopecia areata multilocularis - refers to multiple areas of hair loss.
4. Alopecia areata monolocularis - a condition of baldness in only one spot.Occurs anywhere on the head. 5. Alopecia areata totalis - is a condition when a person loses all the hairon the scalp.
6. Alopecia areata universalis - refers to the condition of losing all bodyhair including the pubic hair. 7. Alopecia areata barbae - is a disease limited to the beard.
EFFECTS
Effects can be psychological (anxiety, depression, social phobia, etc.) or physical. Patients may experience asthma, allergies, atopic dermal ailments, hay fever and hypothyroidism. Excessive exposure to the sun may also cause scalp burns. TREATMENTS
US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved two-combination of non-surgical treatment: (1) Finasteride is a form of antiandrogen that works as inhibitor of an enzyme that converts testosterone to dihydrotestosterone called type II 5-alpha reductase. It is used in may countries to treat 'male pattern baldness' or what is also termed as 'androgenetic alopecia'. Minoxidil is a medicine used to treat high blood pressure, but some patients were noted to have excessive hair growth or what is medically termed as 'hypertrichosis'. (2) Low-level laser therapy
(3) Anti Androgen Therapy
(4) Surgery (5) Ketoconazole
(6) Unsaturated Fatty Acids (7) Exercise
(8) Resveratrol - a substance found naturally in red wines. FOR MORE NATURAL WAYS OF PREVENTION / TREATMENT

- Vitamin C is another antioxidant that helps maintain healthy hair and skin.Citrus fruits, kiwi, pineapple, tomatoes, green peppers, potatoes and dark greenvegetables are rich in Vitamin C.
- Vitamin E increases scalp circulation which is vital for hair growth. You canfind this type of vitamin in wheat germ oil, soybeans, raw seeds ad nuts, driedbeans and leafy green vegetables.
- Biotin is thought to help produce keratin, the building block of hair and nails.It is also thought that is vitamin may prevent graying (whole grains, egg yolks,liver, rice and milk).

If you started getting gray hair fast, check your heart and pancreas. Anotherreason could be a hormonal dysfunction. If you get a few grey strands of hair, it could be a genetic defect �dysfunction of hair nerve.
The reasons for getting grey hair at a young age are high acidity, getting a lotof salt with foods, diabetes, stress, constant fatigue, lack of enzymes,disorder of sex functions and poor blood circulation in your heart. A cause of getting half of your hair or all of your hair grey is severe stressor shock.
If your hair is very brittle, you have not been getting optimal nutrition for along time. If a woman gets bald spots on her temples, it could be early climax,dysmenorrheal and hormonal dysfunction.
