When it comes to hair loss, it's not a one-size-fits-all situation.⁠ ⁠ Here's a quick look at the five common types of hair loss: ⁠ ⁠ 1. Alopecia Areata⁠ An immune system disorder that causes patchy hair loss and random bald spots.⁠ ⁠ 2. Anagen Effluvium⁠ Hair vanishes in isolated clumps, which can be caused by cancer treatments, like chemotherapy and radiation therapy. AE can also result from toxin exposure or various infections.⁠ ⁠ 3. Androgenetic Alopecia⁠ A gradual, even thinning of your hair, which is caused by genetics and hormones.⁠ ⁠ 4. Telogen Effluvium⁠ Sudden shedding, which is a response to extreme shock (like childbirth or trauma), a serious illness or even a new medication you're taking.⁠ ⁠ 5. Traction Alopecia⁠ Hair that's thinning on the sides as the result of wearing too-tight hairstyles repeatedly.⁠ ⁠ What type of hair loss are you experiencing? ⁠ ⁠ #vegamour #femalehairloss #hairlossawareness ⁠ #hairlossawarenessmonth #tractionalopecia #telogeneffluvium #androgeneticalopecia #anageneffluvium #alopeciaareata #alopecia ⁠
