What is it and how it manifests
And 'normal for an adult lose each day a number of hair and that this loss may be more consistent with age. There is talk of alopecia, however, when the fall escalates to determine more or less extensive areas of the head without hair. There are several forms of alopecia: in humans, the most common form is the 'androgenic alopecia, a common pattern baldness, which affects the? 80% of men by age 60 (but also afflicts many women after menopause). We play an important role the hormones male androgens (hence its name) and genetic predisposition (it is more common in people with his father bald). In humans manifests itself in typical fashion, with a slow and progressive withdrawal of the fronto-temporal line and thinning at the top: the hair of these areas seem genetically predetermined to drop in the bulb for the presence of particular structures (receptors) sensitive to hormones. In women, the hormonal changes after menopause may lead to an increase in hair loss that manifests as diffuse thinning.Another form of alopecia, less frequently, it is called alopecia aired, in which there is a rapid hair loss as well demarcated areas of the head, often circular and bounds rather flat. Nell'alopecia aerated the fall of hair can affect, in addition to the head, also the beard and other surfaces hairy. Begins suddenly and has a trend unpredictable. The cause is not known and the disorder often resolves on its own within a few months, especially affecting an adult, but the hairs that grow back they look different from normal, being more akin to a fine down. There are frequent relapses.
Other causes of alopecia can be certain infectious diseases or drug treatments. In fact, many drugs cause hair loss but it is usually reversible on discontinuation of treatment. This phenomenon is especially common with cancer but can also be induced by antithyroid drugs, the derivatives of vitamin A taken by mouth, anticoagulants, oral contraceptives and some blood pressure medications (beta-blockers).
Telogen effluvium

TSH Question--Hypothyroidism?
2011-10-20 13:33:12 by ---Over the summer I had my thyroid tested (after not feeling well for a few months), and my TSH was a little over 6. I was re-tested to make sure it wasn't a lab error, and my TSH was 2.5. Today I just received test result #3 from the doc, and my TSH was at 4.25. The doctor is recommending I take a very low dose of Synthroid, but if my numbers are still below range (5.5, right?), I was wondering if this was a good idea...or if testing for some other issue might be in order.
Here are my symptoms, all of which are exacerbated when tired or stressed:
-hoarse voice
-spotting between menstruation
-heavy menstruation
-sore neck/throat
-fatigue
-anxiety
-recurrent bacterial infections
