7 Signs That You Are Getting Bald And How To Prevent It. by Prosh(m): 2:14pm On Aug 02, 2017
1. Do you have bald relatives The cause is mainly genetics, since this is responsible for 80% of the cases of baldness. If your father, grandfather, uncles, cousins, older siblings have baldness, it is almost certain that all the men in the family will have at some point. Although the gene can also be transmitted by the mother. 2. Teenage hair loss If the loss of hair already starts around the age of 17, having bald relatives, you can be sure that at 23 the boy will already have a beautiful bald very similar to his father. 3. Hair loss at any age If you do not have a secondary cause, such as using medications and the individual begins to notice that you lose hair above normal (it is normal to lose up to 100 threads a day) when combing, on the clothes and in the bath, stay tuned. If baldness is common in the family, with a mirror and an older photo, start periodically checking the front of the scalp. Comb your hair back and check that the entries have increased compared to old photos. 4. Using anabolic steroids What also causes excess DHT is the use of steroids by those who wish to gain muscle mass. If you consume anabolic steroids you will begin to lose hair and the loss increases with the time of use, being as high as 100%. 5. Prostate enlargement Hair loss has been linked to enlargement of the prostate, a gland that secretes seminal fluid and is wrapped around the urethra. Prostate problems affect 40% of men over 50 and can lead to symptoms such as difficulty starting or stopping urination. 6. Inputs in “M” Then the famous “entrances” begin to appear, when the front part of the scalp appears to recede into an “M” shape. This is because the wires at the temples and at the top of the head are more sensitive to the action of DHT. 7. Father’s crown The same process of thinning can happen in the upper part of the head – the so-called “crown”. It can happen that the baldness begins there or appears at the same time on the forehead and at the top. To observe, hold a mirror over your head and observe what it reflects in a larger mirror. A capillary thinning or sinking in the “crown” is a sign that you are losing hair in the region. How to avoid? Here are 6 attitudes that help: 1. If the individual has cases in the family, the best way is to seek the help of a dermatologist for a correct diagnosis and preventive treatment – with medicines, what has been shown to be relatively effective is finasteride, a medicine to reduce the size of the prostate gland. Also shown to be effective in cases of hereditary baldness, is indicated exclusively for men. 2. A good diet is essential to nourish the hair and make it healthy. Vitamin deficiencies predispose to hair loss. 3. Avoid or get rid of stress because the stress hormone cortisol causes the body to release influence on hair loss. 4. Doing regular exercise – exercises inhibit cortisol production and improves blood circulation, leaving the yarns better nourished and irrigated. 5. Hygiene – Clean scalp helps to prevent hair fall. Use neutral shampoo and wash day after day. Avoid cigarette, alcohol, and anabolic. Alcohol impairs the absorption and distribution of nutrients to hair. The cigarette, for the same reason, since it is harmful to the veins, mainly the capillaries, which prevents the arrival of the nutrients until the root of the hair. Seun Lalasticlala Mynd44

I started having bald hair at the age of 15. By 17, I changd my hair style to skin cut. I learned to live with it. Mine is natural cos i took afta dad. To be bald does not reduce u in anyway. That is just d way u are. U are you and that your friend's hair should nt be what u r copying. Nobody can be like you. I am unique in my own way. And nw, d baldness has almost eaten all my hair but its a normal thing to myself and people around me now because I am proud of my self.
