Top 5 Causes Of Male Hair Loss
2
Genetics
Hereditary hair loss is the number one cause of
male pattern baldness. As a man gets older his
follicles on the scalp begin to miniaturize due
to the hormone DHT. These follicles, found in the
frontal hairline and extending into the top and
crown of the head, become smaller and produce a
hair that is progressively thinner and less
pigmented called vellus hair.

Illness
When you are ill, your body taps reserves of
stored nutrients and when these are depleted,
your body takes these nutrients from wherever it
can, therefore robbing other parts of your body
of nutrients that they require. Remember, certain
disease like diabetes, thyroid,
gastro-intestinal, hepatitis, cardiovascular, and
prostate problems can cause hair loss. Treatments
that can lead to temporary hair loss also include
chemotherapy, radiation therapy and surgery.

Poor Diet 
For a hair follicle to produce healthy hair it
needs the proper amount of vitamins, minerals and
nutrition. When your diet lacks certain nutrients
such as zinc, B-vitamins, essential fatty acids,
amino acids, and protein, your hair follicles are
unable to function in optimal condition. When
this occurs the connective tissue that surrounds
the hair bulb gets weak and ultimately hair loss
occurs. Poor diet can also lead to excess
shedding, hair strand breakage and weak
connection of the hair strand at the root.
5
Environmental and emotional stress can lead to a
sudden onset of hair thinning or patchy hair loss
that does not correspond to the typical pattern
of male pattern hair loss. This can be because of
some medical condition which has not yet been
identified and treated, or stress. Reduce stress
if you can and if the loss persists, seek medical
attention.

Medications 
Drugs may affect hair follicles in the anagen
phase (the growth phase) and the telogen phase
(resting phase). In Anagen Effluvium hair loss
usually occurs within days to weeks of drug
administration, whereas in Telogen Effluvium,
hair loss becomes evident 2 to 4 months after
starting treatment.
