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.
Medarosis can be caused by inflammation of the eyelids. The inflammation can be caused by infection, allergic reaction, or trauma such as from the way you remove eye makeup.
Infections are another common cause of your eyelashes falling out. A Staphylococcus aureus infection could not only cause your eyelashes to fall out, but also grow back in different directions. Parasitic mite infections and syphilis are other common eye infections that cause lashes to fall out.
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.
Compulsive pulling and picking can also cause eyelashes to fall out. The hairs may be broken, or removed from the root. The name for this psychiatric condition is trichotillomania and is relatively rare.
Not to fear though, as long as the hair follicles are not damaged, you can stimulate and regrow your eyelashes. Try using eyelash stimulators and growth products. These products help your lashes regrow naturally to their maximum potential.
Eyelash growth serums like LiLash grow the appearance of long, thick, and shiny lashes naturally. LiLash is clinically tested to coat and treat your lashes to give you results in just a few weeks.
