Hair loss begins as the individual hair strands begin to become weak, fragile and thin. As the hair thins more and more it becomes much more prone to fall out in greater and greater numbers over increasing larger areas of the scalp. This loss of hair medically known as androgenetic alopecia, but is commonly referred to as male patter baldness. We all know what the end result of hair loss is, but the reasons why it happens is much less clear. Many people feel that if their father, or grandfather suffered from hair loss, then they will as well, and there is some truth in that, but there are ways to stop hair loss, even if you are genetically predisposed to having it.
Men who suffer from male pattern baldness have elevated levels of a powerful hormone called dihydrotestosterone (DHT). DHT is actually a by product of the hormone most common associated with masculine features: testosterone. As DHT level build up in the scalp men will tend to see their hair becoming thinner and will start to see hair fall out at an increased rate. If the levels of DHT in the body are left untreated the amount that hair thins and the amount of hair lost greatly outweigh new hair growth, leading to hair loss.
Since the vast majority of hair loss occurs due to increased levels of DHT in the body, the only way to fully halt the loss of hair is to block DHT production. Since DHT is so closely linked to testosterone it is essential that a hair loss treatment be effective at blocking its production without affecting testosterone levels. If a hair loss product affects testosterone levels while it is blocking DHT development it can lead to annoying, even dangerous side effects.
Products such the Proceerin Hair Loss System can effectively block the production without altering testosterone levels. Once the development of DHT is decreased, overall DHT levels begin to fall, effectively stopping hair loss. However, stopping hair loss is only one part of the overall hair loss equation, it is also essential that men take care of the hair that is still growing on the scalp. Products such as the topical hair loss serum Procerin XT can work to improve overall hair health as well as stimulate new hair regrowth.
We have conducted a study of over 50 male hair loss products currently available to try to determine which actually work to treat thinning hair and stop hair loss. During our studies we found that the Procerin Male Hair Loss System was not only the most effective DHT blocking supplement and topical hair regrowth serum, but also one of the only products that was free from side effects. Procerin can work for men in all stages of hair loss, and has an awesome 88% success rate for those men who use the product as directed. If you are serious about regaining the hair of your youth, Procerin is the best product currently out there.
