HAIR LOSS IN MEN
Men's Hair Loss: Treatment and Solutions at VCare Hair Clinic
More than 95% of hair thinning in men is male pattern baldness or androgenic alopecia. Male pattern baldness is characterized by hair receding from the lateral sides of the forehead (known as a "receding hairline") and a thinning crown (balding to the area known as the 'vertex'). Both become more pronounced until they eventually meet, leaving a horseshoe-shaped ring of hair around the back of the head.
The causes for male pattern thinning can be due to the below-listed factors:
- Excessive production of free testosterone results in Dihydrotestosterone (DHT) with 5 Alpha Reductase acting as a catalyst.
- Genetic predisposition (Distribution density of androgen receptors).
- Lack of microcirculation to the follicles.
- Steady-state inflammation of the follicles.
Like a garden, a normal hair cycle should lead to a product, which is the hair. Growth cycles are important because when they go awry, that is one of the reasons we have hair loss." Hair loss is always subjective irrespective of gender. Being your best self can never go out of style, be it, men or women.
