Male Pattern Baldness or MPB, also commonly referred to as androgenetic alopecia is one of the hair loss issues faced by men today.
Although most men start experiencing thinning hair problems by the time they turn 30 or 40, there are some unfortunate people who start losing hair soon after they enter adulthood.
It can be highly frustrating to notice that you have started losing hair on your crown just when your life as an adult has begun.
This can greatly affect your confidence and bring a lot of ambiguity in your life.
But wait, you are not alone.
There are many like you who fighting hair loss problems.
Is There Any Hope? If you are one of the many millions of men having MPB then most probably you have tried everything under the sun to grow back your mane, and I assume that the list is long - hair loss shampoos, conditioners, tonics, brandy, coconut oil, medications and so on.
The list goes on, and most probably you find yourself balder than ever even after using so many products that claim to regrow hair.
Do not lose hope, because there is still something that you can do to reverse your hair loss, but it should be different from what you have been doing until now.
If you have been looking for a miracle treatment that will grow back healthy hair on the bald patches then you may continue looking because there is no such miracle product available.
Alternatively if you thought using chemical based shampoos and products can stop hair loss then again, you are on the wrong path.
The good news is there are natural treatments available that work.
Before discussing the method that can help you get to the root of the problem and heal your overall health inside out so that it shows on your hair, let us understand Male Pattern Baldness, its causes and find out which stage you belong to.
In male pattern baldness, you will usually notice a receding hair line which begins from front and slowly extends towards the top of your scalp.
You will start noticing a balding patch in the crown of your head, gradual thinning of hair, and very slow or no hair growth.
Male Pattern Baldness or MPB is basically a progressive condition, and it does not take place in just a few days or months.
It takes some years before you start noticing thinning hair, and by the time you start noticing, you have probably lost 50 percent of the hair.
If the hair loss takes place unexplained then you are probably experiencing Telogen Effluvium.
Alternatively if your hair loss is abnormal, followed by bruises and bald patches then it might be another problem, other than MPB.
What Is The Main Cause Of MPB? Our body is known to produce a type of male hormone called testosterone.
This hormone is responsible for a man's masculinity, and it becomes dominant in a man when he reaches puberty.
Some of the body enzymes convert testosterone to 5α-dihydrotestosterone or DHT, and the excess amount of DHT in the scalp causes thinning of hair and ultimately it falls out.
Hence, DHT is the main factor responsible for hair loss.
Is MPB Genetically Linked? If you have been wondering why you are the one among your friends and colleagues who is balding then this is because MPB is linked to your genes.
If anybody in your family had male pattern baldness then most probably this has been passed down on you.
Those who inherit this bad gene from their maternal or parental family are exposed to DHT and male pattern baldness issues.
Treatment for Male Pattern Baldness: Although there are medications such as Minoxidil and Finasteride available to treat male pattern baldness problems, these drugs may not suit all individuals.
Recent studies and complaints reported by people taking these drugs have shown that these medications may cause unwanted side effects such as decrease in libido.
Although hair transplant may seem to be an easy solution to reverse hair loss, it is not a simple and easy procedure.
Besides being a very expensive treatment, it requires several sessions to get the desired effect, and not all individuals are the right candidate for undergoing hair transplant surgery.
Hence, I would recommend that you opt for natural treatments for hair loss.
Although the natural treatment takes time to show results, it is rare to see any side effects and they treat the root cause of the problem.
