Causes of Hair Loss
Hair loss in men generally begins in their mid-twenties and continues gradually as the years go by. By the age of 50, 60% of men are facing this problem. The earlier you act by consulting a professional and by adopting good hair hygiene, the longer you will keep your hair.. Prevention is the key!
Male pattern baldness, also called male androgenetic alopecia, is generally linked to an increased level of dihydrotestosterone (DHT). This excess of male hormones clogs and suffocates hair follicles. This results in progressive hair loss.
Apart from family history, which is an essential factor in the diagnosis, other causes may be considered: stress, nutritional deficiencies, as well as drug treatments, and also the use of scalp aggressive shampoos and products.
You can rely on the Hair Health Center to offer you effective and efficient customized solutions to prevent, control and cover up baldness and hair loss.
The Stages of Male Pattern Baldness
Research and observations show that hair loss due to baldness evolves in stages.
- It usually begins on the forehead and temples.
- It then progresses towards the back, and a hairless area forms at the top of the head, also called the vertex.
- Gradually, the top of the head becomes completely smooth.
- Eventually, only a crown of hair remains around the head.
Baldness in men generally follows this pattern. However, the rate of progression from a bald spot to a full-blown baldness varies greatly from one person to another.
