Losing hair can be a very traumatic experience for some people. The good news is there are a few common reasons for hair loss, and there are some very effective treatments.
Dihydrotestosterone, more commonly known by its acronym DHT, can be what causes hair loss in women – but, most often men. As we age, a hormonal imbalance begins to appear and can cause DHT to appear. As a result, our hair follicles begin to get smaller and hair has a harder time re-growing, if even at all. Although, there are products on the market that can substantially reduce the amount of DHT in our systems which will reduce hair loss and sometimes can reverse the effects.
Do the products work? The answer is a resounding “Yes”! These products have been shown to have great results.
Products available
DHT shampoo, as well as medication, is available over-the-counter. Not only that, but there are also herbal products that seem to work just as well as the medication does. If you do a simple search on the internet, you will turn up many different solutions available.
As always, it is recommended that you seek out your doctor to see what they think. Your doctor should know your medical situation and will be able to help steer you down the path that will be the most beneficial for you. If you are currently taking medication, it should go without saying that you need their advice. The reason you are losing hair might be related to a condition that you have, or are currently being treated for. Get any underlying conditions taken care first and you may find that it will work itself out naturally.
Hair loss can be a very difficult thing to handle, particularly for women, but by understanding the causes, and by taking care of your diet, you can many times treat the issue and halt, or even reverse, the hair loss.
