Hair Loss – Causes

At the Yates Hair Science Group, patients undergo effective treatments that seek to restore hair loss. In fact, the Yates Hair Science Group offers surgical and non-surgical therapies tailored to the individual needs of men and women.

Hair follicles are the tissues responsible for growing and maintaining hair. It’s normal for people to lose up to 100 hairs per day, and in most cases, the follicles produce new hairs to replace those that fall out. However, in people with hair loss, the cycle is interrupted because hair follicles are damaged or fail to function properly.

When people present with hair loss, the cause most often is because of a genetic condition called female or male pattern baldness. In women, the condition results in progressive thinning of the hair, and in men, it causes the hairline to recede and bald areas to manifest.

Beyond genetics, several illnesses result in hair loss symptoms. For example, thyroid disease gives rise to hair loss, as does anemia. In both cases, treatment can halt and reverse the problem.
