Hair Loss Symptoms in Female (Women)
According to the American Academy of Dermatology, hair loss is a growing problem, affecting some 30 million women in the United States. Hair loss in women isn't always as straightforward as it is in most men. In men about 90% of all cases are caused by hereditary male pattern baldness. In women, however, hair loss can be triggered by a multitude of conditions and circumstances. It can be divided into 2 main categories: Androgenetic Alopecia (genetic hair loss) and Telogen Effluvium (temporary hair loss). The main symptoms are :
Female permanent Pattern Baldness (Androgenetic Alopecia).
Women with permanent hair loss usually have hair loss limited to thinning at the front, sides or crown. Women usually maintain their frontal hairline and rarely experience complete baldness.

Hair loss usually occurs in small, round, smooth patches about the size of a quarter. Usually the disease doesn't extend beyond a few bare patches on the scalp, but it can cause patchy hair loss on any area that has hair, including eyebrows, eyelashes and beard.
In rare cases, it can progress to cause hair loss over the entire body. If the hair loss includes your entire scalp, the condition is called alopecia totalis. If it involves your whole body, it's called alopecia universalis. Soreness and itching may precede the hair loss. 6 Ways to treatment Alopecia Areata
