It is believed to some that an excessive intake of Vitamin A may play a role in hair loss. Baldness is called ALOPHECIA and there is no naturally known cure for baldness because it is believed to be hereditary. Oftentimes aging, diseases affecting the entire body, scalp disorders, ionizing radiation, and reaction to drugs are some of the causes of alophecia. Positively, there are some alternatives to transplanting hair. It involves the removal of small tufts of hair containing active follicles mostly from the back of the head. The tufts are then grafted to bald areas. From 200 to 300 tufts are usually required, and the grafting sessions take place once or twice a week Furthermore, through the application of cream containing the drug minoxidil or other known as Rogaine. However, Rogaine must be applied for months in order to regrow hair and prevent extreme baldness.
