Understanding your unique hair loss pattern is the first step toward effective treatment.
Alopecia is a medical term that simply means 'hair loss'. Alopecia does not refer to one specific hair loss disease. Androgenetic Alopecia, however, is the #1 cause of hair loss. Androgenetic alopecia can cause an experience in hair loss in the early teenage years.
​Men - this type of baldness is typically characterized by hair loss that begins at the temples and crown. The end result may be partial or complete baldness.
Women - with androgenetic alopecia usually have hair loss limited to thinning at the front, sides, or crown. Complete baldness rarely occurs in women.
The majority of women with androgenic alopecia have diffuse thinning on all areas of the scalp. Men on the other hand, rarely have diffuse thinning but instead have more distinct patterns baldness. Some women may have a combination of two pattern types. Androgenic alopecia in women is due to the action of androgens, male hormones that are typically present in only small amounts.
-
Testosterone is converted to Dihydrotestosterone (DHT) by the 5 Alpha Reductase (5AR) enzyme.
-
DHT attaches to the Androgen Receptors on the hair follicle.
-
DHT causes increased hair loss; gradually miniaturizing the hair follicle.
-
This miniaturized hair follicle eventually dies and hair loss occurs.
