What is Hair Loss?
Hair loss, also known as alopecia,
is a condition in which a person experiences a decrease in the number of hair
strands on their scalp or body. Hair loss can occur gradually or suddenly and
can affect people of all ages and genders.
There are many different types of hair loss, including male and female
pattern baldness, alopecia areata, telogen effluvium, and traction alopecia.
Each type of hair loss has its own causes and symptoms.
Hair loss can be caused by a variety of factors, including genetics,
hormonal changes, medical conditions, medications, and stress. Depending on the
underlying cause of the hair loss, it may be temporary or permanent.
Treatment options for hair loss vary depending on the cause and severity
of the condition. Some treatments include medication, hair transplants, and
lifestyle changes. It's important to talk to a healthcare professional if you
are experiencing hair loss to determine the best course of action.
What's the most common hair loss type?
Androgenic
alopecia
(also known as androgenetic alopecia, alopecia androgenetic,
male pattern baldness) is hair loss that occurs due to an underlying
susceptibility of hair follicles to androgenicminiaturization. It is the most
common cause of hair loss and will affect up to 65 percent of men and 40 percent of women by the age of 40.
Men typically present with hairline recession at
the temples and vertex balding while women normally diffusely thin over the top
of their scalps. Both genetic and environmental factors play a role. Classic
androgenic hair loss in males begins above the temples and vertex, or calvaria,
of the scalp. As it progresses, a rim of hair at the sides and rear of the head
remains.
This has been referred to as a 'Hippocratic wreath', and rarely
progresses to complete baldness. The Norwood Scale has been developed to grade
androgenic alopecia in males. Female androgenic alopecia has been
colloquially referred to as 'female pattern baldness', although its
characteristics can occur in males as well. It more often causes diffuse
thinning without hairline recession, and like its male counterpart rarely leads
to total hair loss.
The Ludwig Scale grades severity of androgenic alopecia in
females. Hair loss impacts men of all ages from 21+ depending on each
individual and what role their genetics play. Hair loss in women tends to occur
a little later in life from the age of around 40+.
Can Hair Loss be Cured?
Currently,
there
isn't a 100% guaranteed cure for hair loss. Various treatments and
ointments have been formulated and developed over the years, but the only
substances that have gained FDA approval are Propecia and Minoxidil. Tests have
shown that Minoxidil can help generate hair growth where previously lost.
Prescription
treatments such as Propecia have had a good success rate in stopping hair fall,
but with this treatment comes the risk of nasty side-effects such as erectile
dysfunction and skin rash. If you’re looking for a miracle hair loss cure then
the only viable option would be to invest in a hair transplant – but they don’t
come cheap. Expect to pay £8,000 - £20,000 on the full hair transplant
procedure, which still isn’t guaranteed to bring you effective results.
How can HR23+ supplement help with Hair Loss?
The
HR23+ Tablet is not a miracle hair growth formula, but it can help up to 9 out
of 10 users who suffer from hair loss and thinning hair. HR23+ was formulated
and developed with 23 key additives that are in some way or another associated
with hair health.
Key ingredients include Saw Palmetto (used in many popular
hair health supplements) and Biotin (known for its beneficiary factors that
include hair growth and nail growth).
It
is strongly advised you take HR23+ if you suffer from early stages of hair loss
(Norwood Scale 1-4). HR23+ can help to slow down hair loss and sustain strong,
healthy hair growth in men and women.
