Hair Loss Treatment
For many men, losing hair is a part of the aging process. Common hair loss can be treated with preventative hair loss treatments and products. The figures show that about 25 per cent of men begin losing hair before they reach 30 and two thirds before the age of 60. Sometimes men can begin losing hair in their teens and can reach their early twenties with very little, if any, hair left on the crown of their head. Usually, however, the hair loss is gradual, developing over a period of twenty to thirty years.
Causes of Hair Loss
Male Pattern Baldness (MPB) is a genetic problem that is inherited from either our mother or father, and starts shortly after puberty. When the male sex hormone testosterone reaches the hair cells around the body, it stimulates them to produce hairs (on the chest, face and legs etc). Paradoxically, when it reaches the hair cells in the scalp whose follicles are already producing hair, it causes them to shrink and die over a period of time, to the front-vertex region.
