Overview

The epidemiology and demographics of alopecia varies by the type of alopecia as well as the age, race, sex, hygiene, haircare habits and health status of an individual. For example, in androgenetic alopecia, which has the highest prevalence of all the types of alopecia with about 50,000 per 100,000 men and 15,000 per 100,000 women worldwide, age and sex playing a role shown by the fact that men are more affected than women and post-menopausal women represent the highest proportion among females. In the case of alopecia areata, sex plays no role [1] but fair skinned races are more commonly affected and the prevalence is about 100-200 per 100,000 individuals [1] [2].

Epidemiology and Demographics

Prevalence

  • Androgenetic alopecia is believed to have a worldwide prevalence of about 50,000 per 100,000 men and 15,000 per 100,000 women with postmenopausal women making up the majority. [3]
  • Alopecia areata has a prevalence of 100-200 per 100,000 individuals [1] [2], and risk of about 2% over an individual's life. [1] [2]. The mean age for diagnosis of alopecia areata is 32 years in males and 36 years in females based on a study of the population of Olmsted County, Minnesota which was done between 1990 to 2009 [4].
  • Only limited studies on the prevalence of trichotillomania have been performed and these were done among U.S. university students, Israeli adolescents and older adults within the same community. The prevalence were between 500 per 100,000 to 2000 per 100,000. [5] [6] [7]
  • Traction alopecia is more commonly seen among black populations with females being affected more often than males at a rate of about 31,000-32,000 per 100,000 women compared to about 2,300 per 100,000 men. Traction alopecia was seen in 18,000 per 100,000 girls between the ages of 5.4 to 14.3 years based on a study of African-American girls. An 8-month old girl was the youngest reported case in the study. [8]

Incidence

  • The overall incidence of alopecia areata is approximately 20.2 per 100,000 person-years. [2]

Age

  • Tinea capitis is more common among children and adolescents than in adults. [9]

Gender

  • In telogen effluvium, women are at higher predisposition than men.
  • Alopecia areata can occur in adults and children and distribution is about equal between the sexes [1].
  • Traction alopecia was seen most commonly in African-American females.

Race

  • Traction alopecia was seen most commonly in African-American females.
  • Tinea capitis has a higher incidence among darker races. [10]
  • Cutaneous lupus erythematosus is more common in males than in females, with a ratio of about 59.4 per 100,000 versus 1.6 per 100,000. [11]
