What is AGA Hair Loss?

the other day I had someone email me and ask.? "You reference AGA hair loss is often in your articles exactly what this type of hair loss What causes What are some of the symptoms of it? And to be healed?" While I was certainly not a doctor or a specialist, I will try to answer these questions as they can fully (based on experience and research) in the next article.

Who has the AGA? What is it? What causes it ?: scientific term for the AGA is androgenetic alopecia. Many dermatologists will tell you that, despite the fact that people who like to believe the hair loss, androgenic alopecia is the most common culprit for this loss. It is estimated that over 90% of all cases of loss can be attributed to androgens (or sensitivity to them) in some way. He also said that 50% of men and 40% of women will suffer some form of hair loss, before they reach the age of 50. Of course, the weight will vary from person to person.

There are many factors that contribute to the cause AGA.Najčešći is thought that genetics and heredity. However, all experts see more and more cases of people who have a loss that is reminiscent of this type of hair loss, with no family history. In short, testosterone is converted into dihydrotestosterone (aka DHT) by the enzyme 5-alpha-reductase. And this in turn affects the hair follicles to DHT.

Some symptoms of androgenic alopecia: This process can seriously affect and compromise the hair grows out of these folikula.Rezultat is usually a gradual loss of hair (although it is more aggressive and rapid hair loss and shedding is sometimes also seen) with miniaturization. To put it bluntly, this miniaturization is really what defines the AGA and what makes the hair loss as well as pronounced as it is. Think about it. With seasonal shedding or hair loss caused by conditions such as telogen effluvium (TE), which do not include miniaturization, what was lost in the end successfully replaced. Normal textured hair replaces the shed hair, so that at the end without losing volume or coverage.

But, with androgenic alopecia, the hair returns to the thinner, finer, and more than fly or cotton candy texture. Over time, May you have a little less hair, but the fact is that what you have been compromised and many more fine texture means that the volume and coverage are seriously compromised. This is very much influences the look of your hair loss. Throughout the cycle, the hair gets finer every time until finally you can get peach fuzz, and balding, or nothing at all.

Now, it is different for women. For men, you'll usually get a balding spots or noticeable thinning at the temples and on top of the head or the back of the crown area. What begins as a thinning can become a little bald spots that expand and become larger over time. For women, the more you'll usually see a diffuse thinning and loss of volume or expansion on the part of the line. This does not mean that you do not see thinning in certain areas in women. You can. This sometimes happens on the crown, temples, or crack line. It really just depends on the person and the hand that genetics has to deal with them.

Treatment: AGA has been treated in different ways. Some people try drugs that are controlled by androgens. Success rates vary. But what you usually against here is that it is often not feasible way to eliminate all DHT or completely stop this process and the conversion from happening. So, you're dealing with continuously moving target. And, in my opinion and experience, usually not to have too much testosterone, DHT or 5-alpha reductase, it is that you are sensitive to what you do not have. People (especially women) will often tell me things like, "but my testosterone is low, not high. So why is this happening?" This is typically the level that you are trying to control, to the sensitivity.

So I think that solving the sensitivity, inflammation, and re-growth may be a better plan. It is more realistic and focus on controlling what they can. Regrowth is, for me, the most important part of the equation. To get a decent cosmetic result, you will need an effective regrow, and then keep what has been lost.
