The Hair Life Cycle
A normal number of hairs lost daily is 50-100 hairs. This happens because hair has a specific life cycle, which is divided into three phases.
Anagen: The anagen phase has the longest duration because this is when the hair is growing.
Catagen: This phase lasts about 2-3 months, and the hair is preparing for shedding.
Telogen: The third and final phase refers to the shedding of the hair. A new hair starts to grow in its place.
It’s important to note that the hair life cycle is continuously repeating, and not all hairs are in the same phase at any given time.
What are the types of diffuse alopecia?
Depending on its characteristics, diffuse alopecia is categorized into:
Acute: Sudden hair loss.
Subacute: Gradual hair loss lasting several months.
Chronic: Hair loss lasting over 6 months.

Methods for Treating Diffuse Alopecia
To treat diffuse alopecia, the cause of its appearance must first be identified. Then, the dermatologist will suggest the appropriate conservative treatment.
If after the course of treatment the thinning still persists, the only way to address it is through hair transplantation. This involves implanting healthy hair follicles in the affected area to restore hair growth.
