Are Your Eyelashes Falling Out?

Just like the rest of the hair on your body, your eyelashes will fall out from time to time. This is perfectly normal. The medical term for this is medarosis from the Greek word “madaros” which means bald.

However, if your eyelashes are falling off in great numbers, there may be a medical issue that needs to be fixed. Lash loss can be caused by infections, hormonal imbalances, and irritation.

Waterproof mascara and eye makeup are some of the most common causes of eyelash loss. These products are notoriously difficult to remove and cling to your lashes like glue. Harshly rubbing and pulling on your lashes to remove mascara is a sure fire way to cause your eyelashes to fall out in clumps.

Infections such as chlamydia, parasites, and herpes can also make your lashes fall off. These are serious conditions that should be looked after by a physician.

Endocrine disorders can change the balance of hormones in your body. Since hormones are the master signals that change growth, your eyelashes may be growing back thinner, more brittle, and less healthy. The rest of your hair, not just your eyelashes may become dull, brittle, coarse and start falling off in large clumps.

Another common causes of eyelash loss can be from drugs such as chemotherapy. Cancer patients lose their eyelash hairs just like the rest of the hairs on their body when they undergo treatment.

If you suspect a medical condition is causing your eyelash loss, please see a medical specialist. However, once the underlying illness or disease is cured, your lashes may still need stimulation to regrow.
