Genetic factors may predispose males to hair loss, this is condition is often referred to as male pattern baldness. Male pattern baldness is more susceptible in males who have high levels of DHT (dihydrotestosterone) a gene that is found to be the culprit of balding. Preventing hair loss should be a matter of concern for those who are more susceptible to hair loss and beginning to experience male pattern baldness. Obtaining knowledge and a clear understanding of the environmental and genetic factors that go into cresting this condition is imperative otherwise, if not addressed, can lead to baldness.
Alopecia is what doctors and other medical experts call hair loss that has been caused by genetics. In just about every case, this alopecia is androgenic in nature, meaning that there are hormones within the body that interact with hair follicles of the scalp. In some males, these follicles become sensitive to DHT (dihydrotestosterone).
There is also several other genetic or environmental factors that go into making up the condition that creates androgenic alopecia, and although it is referred to as “male pattern baldness” women are just as susceptible. One such environmental factor has been identified that relates the kinds and quality of aerobic exercise to the baldness though the link is still somewhat unproven.
At any rate, many men and women are confronted with gradual loss of the hair on top of their heads and quite often become alarmed by it. There are ways, though, to help prevent such loss these days. New products- mostly natural in nature — have come into the market that shows great promise in helping men and women to keep what they already have on their heads and maybe even add a little bit more to it.
Most of these new products are composed mainly of vitamins, herbs, and minerals into supplements that are taken orally and sometimes are combined with a topical application. Those who suspect or fear that they will become victims of alopecia can begin taking these vitamins and herbs as soon as they begin to experience hair loss. They do not have to accept excessive or permanent hair loss, especially with all of the preventable products on the market today.
