What causes hair loss?

The main benefit of intralesional steroid therapy is that the steroid injection treats inflamed areas directly, as the steroid bypasses the barrier of thickened skin, also referred to as stratum corneum. Additionally, the therapy delivers the steroid in higher concentrations within a smaller amount of time, making the process swift and efficient.

Genetics

One of the most common causes of hair loss is genetics, hereditary hair loss or, androgenetic alopecia which involves the gradual thinning of the hair.

Hormonal Changes

Menopause can lead to hair thinning due to the drop in oestrogen levels as well as both hyperthyroidism and hypothyroidism (over active and underactive thyroids) can lead to hair loss.

Medical Conditions

The autoimmune condition alopecia areata causes the immune system to attack hair follicles which results in patchy hair loss, lupus is also another autoimmune disease which can cause hair loss. Other medical conditions include psoriasis or scalp infections like ring worm.

Medications

Medications such as blood thinners like warfarin and heparin and some antidepressants can lead to hair loss, beta-blockers for heart conditions can also lead to hair thinning.
