International Women with Alopecia Month – July 2024 (International)

International Women with Alopecia Month is observed in July every year. It aims to raise awareness about women living with alopecia, one of the most common types of hair loss. It is caused by an autoimmune disruption wherein the body attacks its own hair follicles. There are several types of alopecia, but the most common ones are alopecia areata and androgenetic alopecia. International Women with Alopecia Month was started by Bald Girls Do Lunch (B.G.D.L.), an organization dedicated to raising awareness about alopecia. B.G.D.L. offers women with alopecia a community of supportive women. To obtain further information INTERNATIONAL WOMEN WITH ALOPECIA MONTH (nationaltoday.com)
