Hair Loss, Why Me?
I can certainly sympathize with those who lose their hair, not because I personally suffer from hair loss, but I had a friend who went through it while only in his very early 20's. We used to spend a lot more time getting together in the summers as I lived on Cape Cod which is really a summer play ground for many tourist so being young guys we kind of got together a lot more in the summer months.
Male hair loss is genetically passed on through your mother so if your mothers father is or was bald then the mothers sons have a higher chance of being bald as well. [tag-tec]hairloss[/tag-tec] is actually an everyday occurrence for everyone. In fact on average roughly 50 to 150 hairs are lost each day, but most hair re-grows because the hair follicle remains intact. When shedding hair significantly exceeds hair growth is when baldness takes place.
Propecia, Finasteride, [tag-cat Mens Health ]Hair Restoration treatments[/tag-cat] or a good razor are all options. Using prescription drugs like Propecia "can" have side effects though the side effects if any are on a case by case basis so not even a doctor can tell you for sure if you will incur any, but as a prescription medication only your doctor can prescribe it for you if you decide to take that route.
As for my friend ………… well his problem was thinking hair it was a total loss so I guess he could at least bypass the razor option!
