Ways to investigate hair loss
There are many reasons why you can be losing your hair. There
are many causes of hair loss that include stress, poor diet,
ALOPECIA or genetically related. Male pattern baldness is a
popular term used where you can see a man's hairline go back.
Often experts state that this is an inherited state. How this
begins is often with a receding hairline and thinning on the top
of the head. Depending on the severity of hair loss, there are
definitely treatments out there.
Certain types of medicine are known to slow down the process
and even help with some form of hair re-growth. Often this is in
the form of MINOXIDIL or Rogaine which is applied to the scalp
and get be bought with a prescription. It is normal to lose
approximately 50 to 100 hairs per day. What makes hair
interesting is the rate at which it grows. There are three
phases of growth. One of the phases is ANAGEN- this is where the
hair actually grows. CATAGEN phase is shorter about two to three
weeks when the hair stops growing. Finally the third phase is
TELOGEN when the hair is resting. A follicles resist to DHT they
say is genetic - thus why some people go bald and others do not.
Hair loss prevention can begin with
proper nutrition. You
definitely want to absorb the right foods, vitamins and minerals
to help you keep your hair shiny. There have been reports and
tips on just washing your hair a few times a week to allow the
natural oils in your body to stay there. They say proper
brushing will allow you to strengthen up your existing hair.
Doctors believe that excess DHT is an apparent cause of hair
loss The causes of hair loss aren't well defined; however,
researchers have uncovered that men with male pattern hair loss
have increased levels of DHT in the balding area of their
scalps. Individual hair usually follows a cycle of expansion,
falling out, and new expansion. However increased levels of DHT
are believed to contribute to the shortening of the expansion
phase and a shortening of the time it takes for the hair to fall
out. This results in thinning of the hair on the scalp. There
are things that you can do to prevent or stop hair loss. First
of all, get some help via knowledge and research.
