To all bald-headed men.
When you drive at night do you have to turn your head down to low beam?
Yes, there are many such thoughtless jokes about baldness, in both
males and females. However, loss of head hair really is a problem,
which causes a great deal of worry and unhappiness, to those afflicted.
Hopefully, there may be some help and answers for you, within this web
site. It is often easier to reduce the ageing and thinning of healthy
hair, than to regrow into follicles that are already dormant.
Reversing and preventing further hair loss may also be possible. Some products and techniques could be:
Topical ketokonazole, an anti-fungal/5-alfa inhibitor of reductase.
Finasteride and/or minoxidel, known in the United States as propecia and Rogaine, or Rogeine, respectively.
Placebos have average results, but not usually as high as other specific products
Hair cloning, or multiplication, using self replenishing follicle stem cells.
Hair transplants have been used for many years.
To lower androgen levels, aerobic exercises may be beneficial. This may
also help stress reduction which can be an aid to slow the loss of
hair.
Senanoa repens/saw palmetto, a DHT inhibit talk and a herb. Fewer
side-effects and less expensive than products such as dutasteride, or
finesteride.
Resveratrol is a lipase inhibitorl, made from grape skins.
Chinese herbs and Chinese medicine may be tried. Seek help from
qualified acupuncturists, herbalists and holistic medicine
practitioners.
Beta Sitosterol, found in oils of seeds, may also help by lowering
cholesterol. Use an extract, as the heavy consumption of oils can
aggravate the hairloss problem.
As we all know, baldness in males, is more common than females – thank goodness!
Baldness can be caused by a number of factors, including the trigger,
an enzyme called 5-alfa reductase, which converts testosterone into
dihydrotestosterone - DHT, which can inhibit growth in genetically fine
hairs. Some female baldness may be a result of an oestrogen reduction.
Oestrogen usually counteracts testosterones balding action. Tight
ponytails and corn rows, could also contribute to female hair loss, as
may constantly wearing a hat.
This short article can, in no way, cover the wide spectrum of causes
and treatments for hair loss. Search the internet through search
engines such as Google, etc and seek help from alternative health
practitioners, as well as traditional western medicine.
