Abstract: PHG is characterized by hair graying before age 20 (Caucasians) age 30 (African Americans) age 35 (Asians). Premature hair graying can erode an individual's self-assurance and body image. The underlying causes of premature hair graying remain unclear, but research suggests links to premature aging syndromes, allergic conditions, and autoimmune diseases. Individuals with premature hair graying (PGH) require to undergo evaluation for underlying syndromes and metabolic disorders. Managing PGH involves using calcium pantothenate, PABA, or a combination, while also addressing any underlying or co-occurring medical conditions.
