FIGHT HEREDITARY HAIR LOSS

Posted by Manny Y on 6th Apr 2015

Your hair shows a lot about your personality. Within seconds of meeting someone, an impression is already being formed. How your hair looks seem to play one of the most important roles in impression making. So hair loss is perhaps the most dreaded thing for both men and women.

Losing hair is much more common in men. Quite often, men have obvious thinning hair when they reach their thirties. By the age of fifty, almost half of men may have lost their hair to some degree. Typically, hair loss starts to appear as a slightly receding hairline at the temples then proceeds to progressive thinning, eventually resulting to partial or complete baldness. Heredity plays a major role and this is called androgenetic alopecia or male pattern hair loss. This can also affect women but at a lesser frequency and is called female pattern hair loss. Women rarely experience total baldness but more on generalised hair thinning.

Dihydrotestosterone or DHT is the major reason for inherited hair loss. DHT is a hormone that is synthesized when testosterone interacts with the enzyme 5 alpha reductase. All of these transformations occurs at the hair follicles. This however, causes the skin of the scalp to thicken, shrinking the blood vessels leading to the hair follicles, rendering the hair to grow gradually finer. Eventually, the hair falls off, hence the baldness.

To fight hair loss, you need a hair loss treatment that inhibits DHT. However, most DHT blockers are oral medications that usually have adverse effects on masculine traits, such as decreased libido. Choose a hair loss range that works directly on the scalp to block DHT.Nisim Biofactors is formulated with herbal actives that work locally on the scalp to reduce the amount of DHT and stop hair loss. In addition, it contains organic enzymes and essential amino acids to help feed weak and thinning hair.
