Men's Hair Loss Causes and Treatments

Everyone loses their hair, at least 100 hairs per day; it is a natural process of the body's proteins. However, when hair loss becomes an issue or concern, it could be time to talk to a San Francisco hair transplant specialist. Do you understand the basics of hair loss?

Hair loss can affect anyone; here's what you need to know:

Hair Loss is Normal Hair loss is normal, and part of the normal aging process for both men and women. If your parent suffered from alopecia, hair loss, or even male-pattern baldness, there is a good chance that you will also inherit hair proteins with a shorter life cycle. Know the Signs It may seem like identifying hair loss is a no-brainer, but it could be difficult to ascertain whether it is a part of the natural aging process or something more serious. For men, thinning of the scalp, crown and a receding hairline are signs of male pattern baldness, which is normal and completely treatable. For women, a thinning especially near the crown may occur. Consider Contributing Factors So many things can contribute to hair loss, from daily stress to the type of shampoo that you use. Narrowing down what is causing or contributing to your hair loss may involve some trial and error, but a few of the common culprits include:
  • Daily diet
  • Medical issues
  • Hormones
  • Genetics
  • Medications
  • Hair treatments and products
  • Injuries
  • Pregnancy and childbirth
While pinpointing the cause may be difficult, even impossible, there are activities, habits, and lifestyle choices that could impact men's hair loss. Know Your Options Information is power, and you deserve to know that you have options for dealing with hair loss, as well as what these are. The first critical step is to reach out and speak with a specialist in the field of hair loss and transplant procedures. Consulting with a hair restoration doctor will provide the insight, information, and encouragement needed to take the next step. Furthermore, these providers can assess your distinct situation to determine any underlying issues, illnesses, or concerns.
