Taking care of hair is a taskthat iscarried out daily to keep it nice and clean. Healthy hair reflects a lot about our personality and general well being. Sadly, as we grow old most of us will slowly but unenviable lose our hair.
Hair loss is a problem for both men and women. This unwantedproblemgenerally starts after we reach the age of 30 and more cases of hair loss increases as we get older. This type of hair loss is calledandrogenetic alopecia or male/female pattern hair loss. Thiscondition is hereditary and is mainly due to genetically sensitive scalp hair follicles to Dihydrotestosterone or DHT.
DHT is a potent androgen, an important hormone particularly for males. DHT is created when testosterone interacts with the enzyme called 5 alpha reductase. In young males, increasingamounts of DHT signals the start of puberty and is accountable for all secondary sex changes from deepening of the voice to growing of body hair.
Surprisingly, the number one hair loss treatment on the market today stops the formation of DHT. What it really does is, it by inhibiting 5 alpha reductase, the enzyme that converts testosterone to DHT, without this enzyme DHT cannot form. As stated earlier, DHT is an important male hormone and stopping the formation of DHT causes all sorts of side effects from erectile dysfunction, swollen testicles to male breast cancer. To make things worse, some patients still experience the side effects even after discontinued use of this medication.To protect yourself from all these side effects, there are topical anti-DHT products in form of a shampoo or topical solutions that are made of herbal and natural ingredients. These products contain special herbal extract from saw palmetto palm tree. This extract works as natural DHT inhibitor and since it is topically applied it will not affect DHT levels in the body.
Today, more and more people we are going back to natural herbal products because they are safe even after years of use. This goes the same with natural hair loss treatments, the longer you use them, the better they get, without the side effects.
