My hair is falling out in one spot on head! What should I do?

Always check with your doctor whenever you notice something unusual such as this. Usually, there is no cause for alarm. When hair falls out of circular areas on the head, it is normally a condition known as alopecia areata. The bald spots can be from the size of a dime to the size of a half dollar. There is no known cause or cure. Some researchers feel that stress may aggravate or cause the condition. The good news is that it is almost always temporary. And the hair will eventually grow back in.
