What is Baldness?
Baldness, or alopecia, is characterized by significant hair loss on the scalp. It can be temporary or permanent and varies in severity. Male pattern baldness is the most common form, usually presenting as a receding hairline or thinning at the crown. Female pattern baldness tends to cause overall thinning rather than specific bald patches. Although baldness is primarily a cosmetic concern, it can affect self-esteem and lead individuals to seek various treatment options for restoration.
Various Stages & Severity of Baldness
Baldness can progress through distinct stages, commonly classified using the Norwood scale for men and the Ludwig scale for women. Early stages may involve slight thinning or a receding hairline, while advanced stages can result in extensive bald areas. The progression can be influenced by genetic factors, age, and hormonal changes. Understanding the severity of baldness helps in selecting the most effective treatment strategies.

What Are the Causes of Baldness?
- Genetics: A strong family history of hair loss significantly increases the risk.
- Hormonal Changes: Dihydrotestosterone (DHT), a hormone derived from testosterone, can shrink hair follicles.
- Age: Hair loss becomes more common as people age due to changes in hair growth cycles.
- Medical Conditions: Conditions such as thyroid disorders, autoimmune diseases, or infections can contribute to hair loss.
- Stress: Significant physical or emotional stress can trigger hair loss or exacerbate existing baldness.
