Medications that Can Cause Alopecia / Hair Loss

By Yolanda Smith, BPharm Alopecia, also commonly known as hair loss, can sometimes occur as a result of taking some medications. The effects typically become evident within several says or weeks of initiating or increasing the dose of a medication. The risk of drug-induced alopecia depends both on the type of medications taken and the individual response to it. Some drugs are strongly linked to causing alopecia and result in hair loss for most patients who take the drug, while other drugs may cause hair loss in some patients but not others.

Drug restores hair growth in patients with hair loss disease

Seventy-five percent of patients with moderate to severe alopecia areata—an autoimmune disease that causes patchy and, less frequently, total hair loss—had significant hair regrowth after treatment with ruxolitinib. This is reported by Columbia University Medical Center (CUMC). By the end of treatment, average hair regrowth among the patients was 92 percent. Findings from an open-label clinical trial of 12 patients with alopecia areata are published in the Journal of Clinical Investigation/Insight, alongside a paper reporting results of a separate study from Stanford University and Yale University that tested a similar drug. "Although our study was small, it provides crucial evidence that JAK inhibitors may constitute the first effective treatment for people with alopecia areata," said Julian Mackay-Wiggan, MD, MS. "This is encouraging news for patients who are coping with the physical and emotional effects of this disfiguring autoimmune disease." Al

9 Amazing Foods That Help Prevent And Reverse Hair Loss

Hair loss can affect both men and women. There can be many causes behind hair loss, but one of the main causes is the androgen hormone, dihydrotestosterone (DHT) which is derived from testosterone. Hair is made from a protein called keratin, which is produced in the hair follicles. As follicles produce new hair cells, old cells are pushed out through the surface of the skin. The hair you see is actually a string of dead keratin cells. What causes hair loss? There can be several factors behind hair loss such as: Drugs (such as chemotherapy) Hormonal imbalance Scalp infections Too much stress Medical conditions like thyroid disease Iron deficiency Dihydrotestosterone (DHT), a derivative of the male hormone testosterone, is the enemy of hair follicles on your head. In fact, DHT is one of the most common factors that attribute to hair loss and androgenic alopecia (called male or female pattern baldness). DHT is produced from testosterone by the enzyme 5-alpha redu

Have you noticed sudden hair loss?

Telogen effluvium is a very common form of hair loss. For some people it's the bodies natural way of reacting to physical/ emotional changes or to a traumatic event in their life. Our bodies and mind don't always accept and adjust well to change fast enough, causing our appetites, sleep patterns and even our hair growth cycles to be interrupted. When hair growth is interrupted, the hair follicle gets stuck in what's called the telogen phase and will stop growing, also none as the resting phase. After it stops growing it will then lead into the exogen phase, which is when our hair will shed and fall out. Cycling into the anagen growth phase, but if this cycle is interrupted due to sudden changes in our bodies the follicle can fail to regrow again. Telogen effluvium is temporary hair loss due to emotional and/ or physical trauma. At this point, your hair loss and thinning will become more noticeable. Reasons for sudden hair loss can be from...

Matthew McConaughey used hair loss treatment

Matthew McConaughey used a hair loss treatment when he started going bald. The 47-year-old actor noticed he was losing his locks when he turned 30 and was stunned when Regenix - a product derived from natural ingredients - actually halted the thinning process and made his tresses return. He said: "Yup, [my hair is] real, that's what I got. Actually, I was losing my hair in '99. Yes, I was. "I started rubbing my head with this stuff called Regenix, and damn if it didn't come back. I had a silver dollar [bald spot in the back of my head]." And the 'Gold' star's regrowth was so impressive, a doctor took responsibility and claimed he had carried out a hair transplant on the Hollywood hunk. Speaking on 'Live with Kelly!', Matthew said: "I run into this guy in Beverly Hills and he goes, 'I've been wanting to meet you because I go to this conference every year and over the last 10 years we always put you on the screen as

Alopecia patient calls for bald emoji to help represent hair loss

A woman with alopecia has launched a petition calling for emoji of bald men and women to help represent people with hair loss. Jade Jarvis, 24, from Eastbourne developed alopecia when she was 16. It's a condition that affects around one in every 100 people nationwide and Jade says you may well know someone with it but not realise it. "I used to wear my hood up all the time and never leave the house without my extensions in," she tells Newsbeat. "I used to wear a little flower on top of my head to try to cover it. "It's quite stressful and hard to deal with at times but my confidence is coming back." After eight years of hiding her condition, Jade started writing a blog about what day-to-day life is like with hair loss. "I've learnt to accept it," she says.

How to Recover After Finding a Bald Spot in Your Hair

Finding a bald spot can be extremely devastating, especially not knowing the root cause of the balding. A bald spot can indicate hair loss, alopecia, or various underlying conditions that could further the condition. A small, dime-sized bald patch could quickly and easily grow into a much larger area within months, and the chances of regrowth of new hair follicles would be drastically decreased if left ignored. There are several factors that could contribute to drastic hair loss and balding such as environment, health, diet, stress, age, and hormonal changes to name a few. However, the most common cause of round, circular areas of balding is Alopecia Areata, an autoimmune condition that causes the body to over produce T-cells that attack the hair follicles causing extreme cases of hair loss. Many cases of Alopecia are both avoidable and treatable, but the key is to seek help from a professional as soon as the bald spot is noticed.   If you happen to find a bald spot from

Castor oil is great for thickening and regrowing hair, eyelashes and eyebrows

By Natural News Castor oil is often overlooked for its benefits for the skin and hair because of its extremely thick and sticky consistency.  However, if you're looking for a cheap, natural remedy for several common skin and hair complaints, then castor oil is definitely worth your time. Castor oil for regrowing and thickening hair, eyelashes and eyebrows I first stumbled on castor oil as a remedy for regrowing thin eyebrows. I had over-plucked my brows back in the nineties when it was the hip thing to have pencil thin brows, and they never did quite recover.  It became necessary for me to pencil in the "bald" spots and I missed the natural look of real hair where these spots were missing. I read about castor oil as a remedy for thinning brows and hair, and thought I'd try it. I bought a hexane free, organic and cold pressed castor oil and started applying it to my eyebrows every night after washing my face.  After about three months, I noticed my
