It's not a big revelation that most men don't want to see their head going bald. Of course, there are people who are perfectly fine with such a situation and embrace their balding as a natural thing. But millions of American men spend millions of dollars on different drugs and preparations to stop and reverse hair loss, hoping to keep their natural hair for as long as possible. But before trying to cope with the problem, it's logic to learn what are the actual causes behind it, right?
In most cases hair loss occurs due to nutritional, hormonal and circulatory factors and combination of thereof. These factors may differ in intensity but they all lead to the same problem - lack of proper nutrition of the hair follicle, which leads to drop in natural hair growth rates to the point when it becomes lower than the natural hair loss rate. And since the amount of hair grown is lower than the amount loss, balding starts to develop.
As you may see, there are different factors that may contribute to hair loss problems, so it's crucial to pinpoint the exact cause of the problem before you start doing anything about it. Serious illness, trauma, stress and even medication side effects may contribute to hair loss, and it doesn't matter how old are you. It's a common mistake for men to think that hair loss is an age-related condition. In fact some 20 year olds may experience severe hair loss problems while their 70 year old grand parents keep their hair in perfect condition.
Earlier it was believed that genetics play an important role in the hair loss process. People assumed that if a parent had balding problems the child will ultimately have the same issues in the future. However, recent studies have shown that the main reason for hair loss in men is abundance of a specific androgen (male hormone) called dihydrotestosterone (DHT), which is the result of testosterone transformation. This hormone is not harmful for the overall health, however it has very negative effects over the hair.
When there's too much DHT in the bloodstream it comes into contact with the hair follicles. This makes the hair follicles shrink and become mush weaker, which results in slower hair growth rates or complete halt of thereof. And as any person loses 100-200 hairs daily (this is the natural hair loss rate), sooner or later the combined effect is observed in gradual hair loss and balding.
One would assume that the best way to fight male hair loss is to prevent DHT formation in the body. And that's exactly what drugs like Propecia are used for. Propecia and other similar medications prevent the transformation of testosterone into DHT, reducing the impact this hormone has on the hair follicles and thus improving the quality of hair. Taking Propecia on a regular basis stops and even reverses the process of hair loss even in men who have tried other solutions and had hair loss issues for quite a long time.
So if you notice that your hair starts to thin, think about paying your doctor a visit and consider all of your options. The sooner you start addressing the problem the easier it will be for you to resolve it effectively.
