Alopecia: Causes, Treatments, and How West Derm Center Can Help

What is Alopecia?

Alopecia is the loss of hair due to various causes, including autoimmune disorders, genetics, hormonal changes, and stress. The most common types include:

Alopecia Areata: Autoimmune-related hair loss, typically in small, round patches.
Androgenetic Alopecia: Genetic hair loss, commonly seen as male-pattern or female-pattern baldness.
Telogen Effluvium: Hair shedding due to stress or illness.

When Should You Seek Treatment?

If you're noticing hair thinning, bald spots, or excessive shedding, it’s essential to seek treatment. Early intervention can help manage alopecia and prevent further hair loss.
