WHAT IS MALE PATTERN HAIR LOSS?<\/h2>\n

[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css_animation=”fadeInUp” el_class=”general-weight”]Androgenic Alopecia, also known as Male Pattern Hair Loss, is a condition that affects all men at some point as the get older. Most white men develop some degree of baldness, according to their age and genetics. Male pattern baldness affects up to half of all white men by the age of 50 years and up to 80% of men in the same group by the age of 70 years. Other ethnic groups, such as Chinese and Japanese, are less affected.<\/p>\n

Hair Loss in men begins manifesting with the miniaturization of the hair follicle and it is generally known to be related to hormones in both males and females.<\/p>\n

It is important to understand, that each hair on your head lives in a small hole called a follicle. Most of the time, the size of the follicle remains the same, and normal hair continues to grow from it. However, in cases of male pattern hair loss, for some reason, the follicle shrinks. The end result of this is shorter, finer hair, or no hair growth at all.<\/p>\n

At some point, even though the hair follicle itself will remain alive and open in-spite of its smaller size, hair simply stops growing.[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”20px”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row row_content_width=”grid” css=”.vc_custom_1543640686118{padding-top: 60px !important;padding-bottom: 60px !important;}” simple_background_color=”#fafafa”][vc_column][vc_row_inner css=”.vc_custom_1543629130353{padding-top: 60px !important;padding-bottom: 60px !important;}”][vc_column_inner][vc_column_text css_animation=”fadeInUp” el_class=”section-title”]<\/p>\n

\n Gradual thinning on top of head<\/span>\n <\/h4>\n

This is the most common type of hair loss, affecting both men and women as they age. In men, hair often begins to recede from the forehead in a line that resembles the letter M. <\/p>\n <\/div>\n<\/div>

\n Circular or patchy bald spots<\/span>\n <\/h4>\n

Some people experience smooth, coin-sized bald spots. This type of hair loss usually affects just the scalp, but it sometimes also occurs in beards or eyebrows. In some cases, your skin may become itchy or painful before the hair falls out.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n<\/div>

\n \"\" <\/div>\n
\n

\n Sudden loosening of hair<\/span>\n <\/h4>\n

A physical or emotional shock can cause hair to loosen. Handfuls of hair may come out when combing or washing your hair or even after gentle tugging. This type of hair loss usually causes overall hair thinning and not bald patches.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n<\/div>[\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/2″][vc_single_image image=”9609″ img_size=”450×450″ alignment=”center” style=”vc_box_rounded” onclick=”link_image” css_animation=”fadeInUp”][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/2″]

WHAT ARE THE CAUSES OF MALE PATTERN HAIR LOSS?<\/h2>\n

[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css_animation=”fadeInUp”]Men normally lose their hair when three main factors interact: genetics, age, and hormones. Androgenetic alopecia, male-pattern baldness happens as hormone levels change over the course of a man\u2019s life.<\/p>\n

These factors contribute to the gradual shrinkage of the tiny cavities in the skin at the base of hairs, known as scalp hair follicles. Hair grows progressively shorter and finer until no new hairs grow.[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”20px”][vc_tta_tabs active_section=”1″ el_class=”custom-tab”][vc_tta_section title=”Hormonal Changes” tab_id=”1543250772662-cf93f701-f1b4″][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=”2\/3″][vc_empty_space height=”20px”][vc_column_text css_animation=”fadeInUp”]As noted, male pattern hair loss is mainly due to hormonal changes. In particular, a hormone called dihydrotestosterone (DHT) can become imbalanced. Too much DHT in the scalp can lead to a shortened anagen phase, which will lead to reduced production of hairs. The hairs that continue to grow will be much finer.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/3″][vc_single_image image=”6370″ img_size=”400×400″ css_animation=”fadeInUp”][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_tta_section][vc_tta_section title=”Hereditary” tab_id=”1543504620703-910fcd49-b65a”][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=”2\/3″][vc_empty_space height=”20px”][vc_column_text css_animation=”fadeInUp”]The chances of developing male pattern hair loss are significantly increased if someone else in your family has experienced the condition.<\/span>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/3″][vc_single_image image=”6371″ img_size=”400×400″ css_animation=”fadeInUp”][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_tta_section][\/vc_tta_tabs][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row full_width=”stretch_row” equal_height=”yes” css=”.vc_custom_1543257271412{padding-top: 0px !important;}”][vc_column css=”.vc_custom_1543257389188{padding-top: 0px !important;}”]
