Female Baldness

Posted by nirwana Posted on - 0 comments

Female pattern baldness (or female pattern alopecia), though not as common as its male counterpart, is obviously of greater cosmetic and aesthetic concern. It is a source of great emotional distress since women place great stock in a full head of hair. When it does occur, it usually causes a gradual loss of hair from the crown of the scalp, causing a broadened midline parting. It may also recede from the forehead, resulting in the classic 'widow's peak'. Complete baldness in women is a rare occurrence.

Most instances of baldness in females are diagnosed as the result of a deficiency in endocrine hormones. This is why women may find a gradual or dramatic thinning of hair at or after the onset of menopause. Genetic predisposition (androgenetic alopecia) is the cause of almost 90% of female baldness. The use of oral contraceptives is also a known cause for it since birth control pills manipulate a woman's hormonal balance.

Other reasons are the natural aging process, the use of unsuitable hair products, drastic hair styling habits, and grossly improper nutrition. Certain skin disorders like alopecia areata can also cause hair loss in females, which usually occurs in small patches rather than progressively expanding areas.

In quite rare instances, trichotillomania is a factor - this is an obsessive-compulsive disorder that causes the willful uprooting of hair and is usually noted in pre-teenaged or teenaged females. Stress - the bane of modern civilization and often thought to be responsible for hair loss in both males and females - is definitely not a causative factor.

Approximately 20% of all women suffer from pattern baldness to some degree or another. The good news is that dormant, non-productive hair follicles can be rejuvenated medically. In certain cases, the metabolism itself sends the necessary signals and hair growth may resume automatically.

Baldness Cures

Baldness is not a problem that can be taken lightly and the medical community is hard at work isolating cures and treatment modules for it. Apart from the psychological ramifications in a predominantly appearance-oriented society, there is a good deal of money to be made by effective baldness cures.

Propecia has been proven to stimulate marginal hair regrowth and is useful in long-term maintenance. It works by inhibiting systemic creation of DHT and has been found effective in men only. Minoxidil has been found far more effective in actual growth stimulation, though the benefits are strictly short-term and almost immediately reversed at cessation of treatment. It is useful in both male and female baldness and is best used along with Propecia for optimum regrowth and maintenance.

Dutasteride is a fairly new innovation in the treatment of baldness. Controlled studies indicate that its regrowth properties surpass that of Propecia, and that it is also useful in long-term maintenance of regenerated hair. Since this an emerging treatment module, sufficient studies as far as side effects are concerned have not yet been undertaken. There may be issues of allergic reactions in certain users.

The only other clinically established and therapeutically useful formulation is tricomin, which regenerates hair by kick-starting existing hair follicles back into productivity. It is relatively free of unwanted side effects and its efficacy is enhanced in combination with other treatment modules such as minoxidil and Propecia.

With specific regard to female baldness, the medical correction of disrupted thyroid functions can have positive effects, as can, in certain instances, female hormone (estrogen) replacement therapy.

Pattern Baldness - Hair Loss Herbs to Get Your Hair Back

Posted by nirwana Posted on - 0 comments

Pattern baldness is very common, both the more common male pattern baldness as well as female pattern baldness, which some people refer to female thinning hair. No one wants to lose their hair, and it can make you look older, fatter, less attractive, and ruin your self esteem. Although it's true that many men and some women do look great with shaved heads, that's not true about me and it's not true about you either I bet. Otherwise you probably wouldn't be reading this.

I'd love to say there is a cure, but there is no cure for baldness yet. Most researchers seem to be working on more important issues like cancer and AIDS understandable, as they can both be lethal and that's were the funding is. Besides, no one ever died of baldness - yet. Although there is no "cure" there are several methods that can help you grow or replace your hair. Unfortunately what works for one person may not work for another. You may need to try several techniques before you find one that works, and we suggest starting with simple yet effect natural hair growth techniques and then moving to pharmaceutical methods and finally more invasive procedures if need be. Let's start at the beginning at look at herbal solutions.

Hair Loss

Hair Growth Herbs - Various herbs have been used for essentially ever for medical purposes and there are several herbs that may help you immensely. These include Algae Extract which works by healing damages to the scalp/hair. Ginkgo Biloba is a herb commonly prescribed by herbalists for hair regrowth. It's believed that it stimulates scalp hair growth and regrowth by increasing blood flow to the scalp. Rosemary has also been used for a long time, centuries, as a remedy for hair loss, and is applied directly to the scalp. Eating it does not work. It contains rosmarinic acid, an anti-oxidant and anti-inflammatory, and reduces the production of leukotriene B4, which is known to injure hair follicles and contribute to hair loss. Green tea, stinging nettle, saw palmetto, and dong quai are other herbs often used.

There are commercial preparations available that combine these herbs in helpful combinations, or you can visit an herbalist. You also may want to consult your doctor to make sure there is no adverse reaction with any medicines you may be taking.

Herbs are not for everyone and they may or may not work for you, but it makes sense to try natural solutions as they may work and are less invasive than other techniques.
