Alopecia is the general term that refers to all types of hair loss including patchy hair loss (alopecia areata), total hair loss on the scalp (alopecia totalis) and total hair loss on the scalp, face and body (alopecia universalis). Androgenic alopecia is commonly referred to as male pattern baldness but it can also affect women and is often referred to as hereditary hair loss. Although there is some reluctance to talk about it hair loss and thinning hair is a severe problem for many Australian women. It affects young people too; including many in their teens who are perfectly healthy in mind and body but simply begin losing their hair.

There are many factors which contribute to hair loss such as stress, poor diet, hormonal changes, medications, prolonged use of hair dyes, excessive blow drying and of course, aging. Chemotherapy is well known for causing extreme hair loss. Many antidepressant drugs and steroidal medications can cause hair loss. Menopause can be a time of severe hair loss and hair thinning for many women.

People who begin to lose their hair may think it's because of some unstoppable, internal process which is often just not the case.
