Now, what is baldness? well, the dictionary says that baldness involves the state of lacking hair where it often grows, especially on the head. The most common form of baldness is a progressive hair thinning condition called: Androgenic alopecia or male pattern baldness that occurs in adult male humans. The amount and patterns of baldness can vary greatly; it ranges from male and female pattern alopecia{ androgenic alopecia also called androgenetic alopecia} Alpecia areata, which involves the loss of some of the hair from the head , and Alopecia totalis ,which involves the loss of all head hair , to the most extreme form , Alopecia universalis , which involves the loss of all hair from head and body.

What causes excessive hair loss?

A number of things can cause excessive hair loss. For example, about 3 or 4 months after an illness or a major surgery, you may suddenly lose a large amount of hair. This hair loss is related to the stress of the illness and is temporary.

Hormonal problems may cause hair loss. If your thyroid gland is overactive or underactive, your hair may fall out. This hair loss usually can be helped by treatment thyroid disease. Hair loss may occur if male or female hormones, known as androgens and estrogens, are out of balance. Correcting the hormone imbalance may stop your hair loss.

Many women notice hair loss about 3 months after they've had a baby. This loss is also related to hormones. During pregnancy, high levels of certain hormones cause the body to keep hair that would normally fall out. When the hormones return to pre-pregnancy levels, that hair falls out and the normal cycle of growth and loss starts again.

Some medicines can cause hair loss. This type of hair loss improves when you stop taking the medicine. Medicines that can cause hair loss include blood thinners (also called anticoagulants), medicines used for gout, high blood pressure or heart problems, vitamin A (if too much is taken), birth control pills and antidepressants.

Certain infections can cause hair loss. Fungal infections of the scalp can cause hair loss in children. The infection is easily treated with antifungal medicines.

Finally, hair loss may occur as part of an underlying disease, such as lupus or diabetes. Since hair loss may be an early sign of a disease, it is important to find the cause so that it can be treated.


What is the normal cycle of hair growth and loss?

The normal cycle of hair growth lasts for 2 to 3 years. Each hair grows approximately 1 centimeter per month during this phase. About 90 percent of the hair on your scalp is growing at any one time. About 10 percent of the hair on your scalp, at any one time, is in a resting phase. After 3 to 4 months, the resting hair falls out and new hair starts to grow in its place.

It is normal to shed some hair each day as part of this cycle. However, some people may experience excessive (more than normal) hair loss. Hair loss of this type can affect men, women and children.

Hair dye and bladder cancer risk

Some research has suggested that using hair dye may lead to an increased risk of bladder cancer, while other research has suggested it doesn’t. Some studies have probably been too small to show up any small increase in risk. In the Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA) May 2005, a large meta analysis was published that looked into all the research on hair dyes causing cancer. This found that there is unlikely to be any link between dyeing your hair and bladder cancer.
In 2008, the WHO (World Health Organisation) said that there is some evidence that hair dyes can increase the risk of bladder cancer for male hairdressers and barbers. This is because they are working with these chemicals all the time. But this risk can be reduced by using non-touch hairdressing techniques. The picture is less clear for people who have their hair dyed or dye their own hair.

Hair dye and risk of blood cell cancers

Blood cell cancers include lymphomas, leukaemia and myeloma. There is no definite evidence of a link between the use of any type of hair dye and non Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL), leukaemia or myeloma. Some studies have shown an increased risk of non Hodgkin's lymphoma in women who use hair dye but other studies have not shown an increased risk.
An analysis of all these studies, published in the Journal of American Medical Association in May 2005, found that there may be a small link between hair dye use and myeloma, lymphoma or some types of lymphoblastic leukaemia. But the results of this paper show that if there is any increase in risk, it must be extremely small. A recent large international study reported in 2008 that women who began using hair dye before 1980 had a slightly increased risk of some types of non Hodgkin's lymphoma - follicular lymphoma and chronic lymphocytic leukemia or small lymphocytic lymphoma. The increased risk was in women who used dark coloured dyes.
A lot of hair dyes made before 1980 contained chemicals that were known to cause cancer in mice. Since 1980, hair dyes have changed dramatically and many no longer contain these cancer causing chemicals (carcinogens). Some smaller recent studies in China and the USA have looked at whether women with certain types of gene changes may be more at risk of developing lymphoma if they use hair dyes. They seem to show a slight increase in risk for women with certain gene types but we need more research to be sure.
There is information about the risks and causes of myeloma and risks and causes of non Hodgkin's lymphoma on CancerHelp UK.
There is information about reducing your risk of cancer in the causes and symptoms section of CancerHelp UK. It is far more likely that concentrating on your diet, smoking, drinking and exercise habits will reduce your risk of cancer more effectively than changing your use of cosmetics.
