Women if you have been losing a lot of hair lately, beware. According to a latest study a common form of hair loss and balding in women could be linked with growth of fibroids or non- cancerous tumours that grow along or within the walls of the uterus. According to the researchers, the medical records gathered on hundreds of thousands of African-American women pointed at the peculiar risk

The results suggested a five-fold increased risk of uterine fibroids in women with Central Centrifugal Cicatricial Alopecia (CCCA), compared to age, sex and race matched controls. CCCA predominantly affects black women and is the most common form of permanent alopecia - baldness - in this population.
