So You're Losing Your Hair, Now What?
More than 95% of men experience some degree of hair loss during their lives according to the American Hair Loss Association and near 60% notice a receding hairline or thinning hair by age 35.
A head full of hair is not just a matter of vanity. Losing hair without control over its regrowth can create serious psychological distress, especially when it starts at a fairly young age and has a noticeable impact on the way you look. But there are numerous steps that you can take to slow down or stop hair loss.
In the article below, we explain how and why hair loss happens and what you can do about it, from FDA-approved medications that prevent hair loss and stimulate regrowth, to dietary supplements that nourish your hair from within and more.
Hair loss: The Basics
- While a number of factors can contribute to this universal complaint, hair loss in men is primarily the result of a hereditary condition known as androgenetic alopecia or male pattern baldness. So if you have a close relative who has lost their hair, then you’re probably at risk too.
- This inherited trait means that a by-product of the male hormone testosterone called DHT (short for dihydro-testosterone) binds to receptors in your scalp causing your hair follicles to shrink through the years until they stop growing new hairs.
- A range of other issues may also contribute to hair loss though such as illness, stress, infections, nutritional deficiencies, hormonal imbalances, and use of certain types of medication.
What can you do about it?
If you’ve just started experiencing hair loss, don’t panic as hair loss can be reversible!
Remember though that early action is the best action. If your hair loss is caused by male pattern baldness, it’s important to treat it early to stop it from getting worse over time.
While there isn’t a cure for hair loss, multiple medications have been proven effective at slowing down hair loss and even reversing it. Currently, the most effective treatments for hair loss are the FDA-approved medications finasteride and minoxidil.
Valeo offers both of these medications to you online, along with the ability to connect with a licensed medical provider who will recommend the best course of action for your case. That is on top of numerous other curated natural products & supplements that – though they may not prevent hair loss – would help keep your hair strong, thick, and healthy.
