Hair decline is one of the main problems in men. A study conducted in Spain found that about 44.5% of men suffer from genetic baldness throughout their lives, while it usually affects 85% of people throughout their lives.
A recent scientific study revealed interesting data on alopecia, since at what age it is more often to begin to fall hair and which have a large genetic predisposition that needs to be cleaned.
At what age do men begin in men?
Male androgenic alopecia, also known as male baldness, affects about 30-50% of men over 50, capable of demonstrating earlier.
Let the clinic report that the scheme is predictable, since it usually begins with temples and spreads to the middle area of the scalp. Various population studies, such as those conducted in Australia, found that men aged 40 to 69 years show that the severity of baldness has a direct relationship with age.
Cases of alopecia or the notorious thinning of the density of capillaries were 31% in a group of 40 to 55 years. Nevertheless, subjects from 65 to 69 years showed a percentage to 53%.
In other scientific research, such as those conducted in Japan, he found that the process of hair loss can be delayed up to ten years compared to cases of those who have Caucasian genes.
Who is more prone to hair loss?
The possibility that the hair and the age with which it begins depends on genetic and hormonal factors, begin to fall. As explained by the clinic of Cleveland, alopecia is a polygenic inheritance disorder.
The genetic predisposition is almost inevitable, which explains why some men can begin to lose hair in the early stages of adolescence, while others can not.
For example, scientific studies of the twins confirm that the hereditary burden is decisive, since it is approximately 80% of the predisposition.
In the same spirit, Caucasians usually demonstrate a more frequency in baldness schemes compared to other ethnic groups, such as Mongol, Afro -American and Asian.
Why is the hair lost?
The most common cause of hair loss reacts to hormonal motifs, especially to dihydrotestosterone (DHT), a derivative of testosterone, which attacks the hair follicles, making them less until they stop producing hair.
In addition, you can respond to treatment, such as chemotherapy, anticoagulants and antidepressants, among others. Other key factors are physical or emotional stress, but gives an advantage that it can be reversible in a few months.
Other external factors and habits that can cause baldness:
- Hairstyles, belts such as braids or braids
- Excessive use of heat, ink or aggressive products
- Excessive care
- Bad nutritious diet
