What causes male pattern hair loss?

Hair loss in men could be due to age, genetics or hormonal imbalance. Let us find out how these factors contribute to male pattern baldness.

Genetics : If any member in the family has suffered from male pattern baldness, the chances of the next generation facing the same elevate significantly. Genes play a crucial role in deciding the male pattern baldness.

Hormones : Dihydrotestosterone (DHT), a chemical derivative of the male hormone testosterone is the primary reason behind male pattern hair loss. It prevents the follicles from supplementing the growth of hair by limiting the supply of essential nutrients required for hair growth. This leads to slowing down the growth rate of hair and their shrinkage. Generally, DHT doesn’t affect the scalp, but if the person has a tendency of male pattern hair loss due to genes, it makes the hair follicles sensitive.

Age : Ageing affects the hair cycle and growth pattern of hair due to the alteration in hormones and their level. Testosterone, androgen receptors, 5-alpha reductase and serum DHT decrease which ultimately affects the hair growth.
