Hair Loss in Men
Our hair is an important element that greatly affects our appearance and self-confidence. However, some men may experience hair loss due to genetic, hormonal, aging, stress, illness or environmental factors. Hair Loss can have both physical and psychological negative effects. For this reason, many men resort to various methods to regain their hair.
Hair Transplantation is one of the most effective and permanent solutions against hair loss. Hair Transplantation is the process of taking healthy hair follicles from the area (donor area) and transplanting them to the balding area (recipient area). Thanks to this application, it is possible to achieve a natural and aesthetic appearance.
Male Pattern Hair Loss (Androgenetic Alopecia) is the most common type of hair loss seen in 95% of men. This type of hair loss occurs when hair follicles interact with Dihydrotestosterone (DHT), a derivative of the male hormone testosterone. DHT causes hair follicles to shrink, weaken and die. This leads to thinning, sparseness and loss of hair.
Male Pattern Hair Loss starts with receding hairline and opening of the crown area. Over time, these two areas may merge to form a completely bald area. Hair loss progression is evaluated in 7 stages according to the Norwood-Hamilton classification. This classification is used to determine the severity and shape of hair loss.
Causes of Hair Loss in Men
The most important cause of Male Pattern Hair Loss is genetics. If there is a family history of hair loss, there is a high probability that this condition will be passed on to the person. In addition to genetic factors, there are other reasons that trigger or accelerate Male Pattern Hair Loss.
In articles to the question of Why Hair Loss Occurs in Men;
- Hormonal Changes: Hormonal disorders such as increase or decrease in testosterone level, thyroid hormone imbalance, growth hormone deficiency can cause hair loss.
- Stress and Lack of Sleep: Physical or emotional stress can cause hair follicles to enter the resting phase and lead to hair loss. Stress can also weaken the immune system, increasing the risk of infection or inflammation on the scalp.
- Unhealthy Nutrition : Inadequate intake or malabsorption of nutrients such as protein, iron, zinc, biotin, folic acid, which are essential for healthy hair growth, can cause hair loss. In addition, conditions such as excessive weight loss, eating disorders, diabetes can also lead to hair loss due to malnutrition.
- Drug Use : Some medications such as chemotherapy drugs used for cancer treatment, blood pressure medications, antidepressants, anticoagulants, birth control pills can be one of the side effects of hair loss.
