HAIR FALL OR HAIR LOSS TREATMENT http://whiteink.in/treatment-Hair-Fall-22 What the common types of baldness? There are two common patterns: Male pattern baldness: The condition is characterized by a typical pattern of receding hairline at the temples and hair thinning on the crown. It can progress to partial or complete baldness in some cases. It is the most common cause of baldness in men. The percentage of men affected by MPB increases with advancing age. Triggered primarily due to the male hormone DHT (dihydrotestosterone), this can begin in some males as early as in their teens or twenties. Female pattern baldness: Female pattern baldness, also known as alopecia diffusa, is a common cause of hair loss in women. It is characterized by diffuse loss of hair from the scalp. The mechanism of female pattern baldness is believed to be very similar to that of male pattern baldness, with the bulk of the damage being done due to hormonal changes in the body. Genetic disposition combined with sensitivity to the male sex hormone DHT (dihydrotestosterone) are the primary triggers for this condition.
