Trichotillomania: What is it? How do you treat it? Trichotillomania is described in the fourth edition of the DSM-IV as "characterized by recurrent pulling out of one’s hair for pleasure, gratification, or relief of tension that results in noticeable hair loss." It is classified as an impulse control disorder and is estimated to affect between 5 and 10 million Americans. Trichotillomania can affect any part of the body, but the most common areas are the scalp, eyebrows, and eyelashes. Hair pulling is described as soothing and pleasurable, and the pulling can become ritualized. Often, persons with trichotillomania may try to find the "right" hair to pull or they may examine the hair root, twirl it, pull the hair between their teeth or eat it. As trichotillomania sufferers try to resist the urge to pull they become tense. When they pull the hair, they experience a sense of relief or pleasure. The hair pulling can vary from mild hair loss to complete baldness. The causes of trichotillomania are unclear. Trichotillomania has been conceptualized as a habit-control disorder, which led to a behavioral treatment approach called Habit Reversal Training. Because of similarities between trichotillomania and obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) in symptoms and in responses to treatment, trichotillomania has been described as a variation of OCD. Despite some similarities, recent data demonstrate important differences between these disorders. It appears that many factors, including abnormalities of brain neurochemistry, are involved in the development of trichotillomania.

Pulling out hair (trichotillomania) Last year my daughter started pulling out her widow's peak of hair on her forehead. I thought it was a habit during the stress of her A levels, but she returned from university at Easter with a definite receding hairline from her habit. It's making her very unhappy but she can't seem to stop. Why is she pulling out her hair like this? Tessa Dr Trisha Macnair responds Your daughter has a condition known as trichotillomania, which is defined by some people as an impulse-control disorder and by others as a type of obsessive compulsive disorder. Although it's defined as a psychological problem, this doesn't mean your daughter is 'mad'. Research has shown that, apart from their habit, people with trichotillomania have a healthy psyche. However, it may be associated with depression, anxiety and other problems. Trichotillomania is quite common - affecting at least two per cent of the population - and usually starts around puberty or early adulthood. The sufferer usually pulls out hair from their scalp or face (eyelashes or eyebrows) because it's easily accessible, but sometimes they pull out body hair too.

feedback sitemap kids health fact sheets ... PDF Version Available Trichotillomania There are many causes of patchy hair loss (alopecia). The word, Trichotillomania is used for hair loss due to a child twisting, pulling or plucking out his hair, eyebrows or eyelashes. Trichotillomania does not cause permanent hair loss, harm to the hair follicles nor does it cause brain damage. When the pulling, twisting or plucking stops, the child's hair will grow back normally. Trichotillomania is quite common in children and the behaviour responds well to treatment. Babies: 1 month to 2 years Hair pulling at this age is usually a self-comforting habit. It often goes along with thumb sucking. The baby reclines with thumb or fingers in the mouth and twists his/her own or his mother's hair with the other hand. The child finds this relaxing and usually engages in the behaviour before falling asleep or when he/she is distressed. Toddlers: 2 to 5 years If your child has been pulling at his hair since he was a baby, he will be in the habit of doing it without thinking. At around the age of three, children can tell if you are reacting to what they do. If you get worried or upset when your child pulls at his hair, he soon will learn how to get your attention with this behaviour. Hair pulling is used by your child as an effective addition to kicking and screaming during a tantrum. Younger children usually twist hair and the older ones pluck at their hair. School age: 5 to 12 years
