Actually about 95% of balding hair loss in men is due to the condition known as Androgenic Alopecia, or male pattern baldness. Age, heredity, and the male hormone testosterone can be major factors in bringing on this condition. The hair at the temples begins to recede, the hair at the crown of the head can begin to thin, and eventually the infamous horseshoe pattern around the sides of the head begins to appear. Although balding hair loss becomes more noticeable once a man gets into his mid thirties, even men in the twenties are concerned nowadays with this problem. So what can you do about it? There is no shortage of quick solutions offered on the internet. Many observers might regard these as 'snake oil' solutions, marketed by unscrupulous companies set on emptying your wallet. Hence the need for caution and not believing everything you see and read. You can research balding hair loss treatments that have been on the market for some time and stood the test of time such as Rogaine Minoxidil. This product came on the market back in 1988 and since then has established itself as a reliable hair loss treatment for thousands of men and women. Of course, there are side effects, so it is wise to check this out thoroughly beforehand and decide whether you are prepared to live with them in order to stop balding hair loss. There are also natural herbal treatments which promise quick results. If you are tempted to try any of these see if the company offers a money back guarantee as these solutions will not work for everyone. A legitimate company should have no problem offering such a guarantee and you can always check the reliability by putting the company name in your favorite search engine and putting the word 'scam' or 'refunds' after it to see what comes up on the forums. If a product is notoriously ineffective you can count on many voices being heard on internet forums to that effect. A longer term approach which many find helpful is to examine lifestyle options and the effect on balding hair loss. Admittedly, once you are aware of hair diminishing, you want to do something about it immediately and not have to wait months for results. There are certain shampoos on the market which can cut DHT, the main culprit in male balding hair loss, and thus stop the hair loss very quickly. The next goal would be to try and stimulate hair growth once you are confident the hair loss has stopped or diminished. Some find it good to combine shampoos, and hair growth products with a healthy lifestyle. This includes plenty of exercise, quitting smoking if that is a habit, and eating the right foods. What difference does this make? For hair to grow, the hair follicles need a good supply of oxygen and nutrients. How does it get them? Through a healthy blood supply and circulatory system. You can see why regular exercise is important, to get the blood up there to your scalp to give the hair follicles what they need. When it comes to smoking, it's important to realize the effect nicotine can have on the circulatory system. Nicotine causes blood vessels to contract, so the heart has a harder time pumping blood around, which in turn degrades the efficiency of the circulatory system. The hair follicles naturally get adversely effected. Then again, diet is important to make sure you have healthy blood, with all the minerals, vitamins and proteins which contribute to healthy hair and nails. Certain foods are known to be good for contributing to healthy hair. Having said all that, experimentation is necessary. Every individual is different. What works for one may not work for another. So beware of products that make outrageous claims. You would want to see clinical evidence in the way of published reports before parting with your hard earned money. So if you become aware of balding hair loss - don't panic! Research, experiment, and make any necessary adjustments to your lifestyle, and go a long way to stopping balding hair loss in its tracks, and start laying the foundation for a healthy head of hair in the future.
