The majority of men are suffering from Androgenetic alopecia and due to irregular lifestyles, the concern is increasing day by day. And now even among women, androgen hormone secretion and hair loss have increased in the last few decades in women as well due to lifestyle issues. In some cases, genetic disorders also play a major role and in men, it’s the only cause. Each hair follicle leaving our body in Androgenetic alopecia cases is forfeited and will never come back. The genetic history of hair loss comes from either of the sides of the family and it’s been seen that most men get the same pattern of hair loss from the mother’s side. The pattern is either a receding hairline or a patch appearing on the crown.

Andro means men, genetic is heredity, alopecia is a typical case of male pattern baldness. In androgenetic alopecia cases, there is a triggering factor of testosterone hormones in the body of men and women. In men it’s continuous and in women, it happens post hormonal changes. So whenever there is a triggering factor of testosterone hormones the 5 alpha reductase enzyme which is a type 2 enzyme gets activated and converts the testosterone to Dihydrotestosterone. The DHT hormones generally are like hard wax and along with the androgen receptors, the DHT hormones block the follicular unit graft from receiving adequate blood circulations. As a result, the thick hair becomes thin day by day and one fine day it miniaturizes and falls off and there is no more hair regrowth from the same grafts as the grafts completely perish leaving a sign of dot on the scalp if seen through proscope device. So whenever you experience excessive hair loss and notice receding hairline, visit one of the best hair restoration clinics in your city and get consulted by the Aesthetic physician, along with hair restoration procedures like Oxygen laser therapy, PRP, and mesotherapy you might also need to undergo a hair transplant. Assessment of hair loss according to the Norwood Hamilton scale to know your stage is very important.
