Hair loss may not be as serious as cancer or heart disease, but when patients lose one of their most treasured possessions, the psychological trauma can be extremely severe. Although the pathogenesis of alopecia may seem complicated, if one understands the basic physiology and the normal hair growth cycle and learns how to perform a methodical examination and investigation, one can easily diagnose and treat most cases of alopecia seen in family practice.
脱发虽然不像癌症或心脏病那样严重，但当患者失去他们最珍视的东西之一时，心理创伤可能会极其严重。虽然脱发的发病机制似乎很复杂，但如果了解基本的生理学和正常的头发生长周期，并学会如何进行有条不紊的检查和调查，就可以很容易地诊断和治疗在家庭实践中看到的大多数脱发病例。
