Hair loss in men

Alopecia in men is caused mainly by genetic and hormonal factors, even though stress and lifestyle can also significantly affect the health and condition of the hair. It usually starts with either a receding hairline or thinning at the crown of the head, creating a progressive reduction of the hair follicles, until finally hair comes off. Its causes are due to a local increase in dihydrotestosterone (DHT), a male hormone bringing about a shortening to the hair growth phase.
