What is the cause of female pattern baldness? This is a problem women have been struggling with for years although it has only recently been in the limelight. The major reason for this problem is androgenetic hormones. Androgen is typically a male hormone.

In females the ovaries and adrenal glands are the main supplier of androgens. An androgen such as DHEA is generated by the adrenal glands. This androgen can be altered by enzymes and turned into testosterone. When females have this problem DHEA precedes DHT. It is converted by alpha 5 reductase enzymes and hydroxysteroid hydrogenase isomerase, which is an enzyme. Basically, what this means is it will be changed by both of these enzymes in order to do the same damage regular DHT does to hair follicles of men.

One of the worse parts about getting older is things dont quite work they way they used to, your joints ache more and you start losing your hair! There is also a fifty per cent chance that you will go bald if you are a male over the age of 50.

So that's the bad news out of the way, and the good news is that the best hair loss products provide effective treatment that zeros in on the main cause of hair loss today, while the majority of products don't, which is why they never seem to live up to expectations.

Male and female pattern baldness (androgenic alopecia) is the commonest type with a hormone called DHT being responsible for choking the hair follicles until the hairs fall out completely and this also prevents new growth from the affected follicles without treatment.
