Hairloss Treatments And Types

Many people ask us what is the most effective hairloss treatment. Well, like any good question there is more than one answer. Hairloss is probably the most discussed health condition. We all experience hairloss. Only that some experience it in earlier stages of their lives. But not all hair losses were born equal. There are different types of hairloss and for each there are several possible hairloss treatments:

1. Androgenetic alopecia – This is the most common type of hairloss - Also known as male pattern hairloss (or female pattern hairloss). This type of hairloss is related to the effects of genetics.
The cause for this hair loss type is the production in the body of a chemical called DHT. The production of DHT causes the hair follicles to shrink and gradually damages the hair growth process to the inventible permanent hairloss.

There is a wide selection of hairloss treatments for the male pattern hairloss - most of them claim to lower the amount of DHT. There are pills like the FDA approved Propecia (also known as finasteride) and natural hairloss treatments like Revivogen or Advecia. Other types of hairloss treatments for people that suffer from male pattern baldness are hair transplant surgery or medical hair restoration.

2. Temporary hairloss – Also known as telogen effluvium. In those cases hair will regrow within a few months. The most common temporary hairloss is called Alopecia Areata – A loss of hair small patches. Temporary hairloss can also be a result of certain medication or medical treatments like Chemotherapy. Unfortunately, there are no reliable hairloss treatments for theses cases.

3. Anagen Efluvium – This hairloss type refers to permanent hairloss caused by damages to the hair structure. It could be a result of a psychosomatic condition like stress or of medical condition as diabetes, thyroid disorders, immune disorders etc. The hairloss treatments for theses cases should be decided by a doctor according to the medical condition. In some cases where there is no available hairloss treatment people choose to wear hats or wigs.

It is important to realize that in most of the cases hairloss could be prevented and stopped using the proper hairloss treatments. So, don’t wait for miracles. Stop you hairloss.
