Hair loss can be the result of many possible causes, from stress, vitamin deficiency, to cancer medications (chemotherapy drugs). 

However, by far the most common culprit behind male hair loss cases (up to 90%) is male pattern baldness (MPB), also known as androgenetic alopecia. In this condition, the hormone, dihydrotestosterone (DHT), weakens and shrinks the hair follicles - ultimately causing them to lose the ability to produce hair. This is MPB, and it commonly happens to most men around the world.

Absolutely! Safe, convenient and effective treatment options are available for men experiencing hair loss. Medications such as DHT blocker pill and FDA-approved follicle reviver serum are approved for the treatment of male pattern baldness in men, and are effective in helping reverse hair loss and restore hair growth in up to 9 out of 10 men. 

 Other hair restoration treatments (such as laser therapy and hair transplants) are also available, but while effective, they are also generally more time consuming and can be expensive. Medications are generally a more convenient and affordable option for most men who are seeking less time consuming and less expensive hair loss treatments. 

Signs of hair loss are highly visible and should be familiar to us all. The main signs of hair loss would be gradually receding hairline, appearances of bald spots and/or a balding crown.

 Your hair may become thinner or break easily, and you may also notice that more hair is falling out in the shower or when styling your hair. 

However, if your hair loss is extremely sudden or rapid with no apparent pattern or cause, seek medical attention as soon as you can.

Ideally you should start as early as you can once you or your doctor detect signs of hair loss, as medications such as FDA-approved follicle revival serum and DHT-blocker pill take time (generally 3-4 months) to start showing results. 

However, it is important to note that if someone is already completely bald for a while, it is unlikely for the medications to help. So the goal is to start treatment early to prevent further hair loss and to reverse the condition before it becomes permanent.

Most men will see increased hair density in 3-6 months.

DHT is an abbreviation of dihydrotestosterone. It is an androgen, which means it is a hormone that triggers the development of male characteristics. 

In younger males, it contribute to male sex characteristics (e.g. deeper voice, increased body hair and muscle mass etc.) when we go through puberty. In men past their puberty, DHT helps maintain our overall muscle mass and promoting sexual health and fertility. 

However, DHT is also the main culprit behind male pattern baldness. When DHT in your bloodstream reaches receptors on hair follicles in your scalp, it causes them to shrink and reduce their ability to support healthy hair - thus leading to hair loss.
