Male hair loss is mostly caused by these factors

Many men experience hair loss when they reach a certain age. Although hair loss is harmless to the body, it seriously affects the appearance. Love of beauty is human nature, and male hair loss will also cast a shadow on men's psychology. Many men don’t say it, but they are very worried in their hearts. So what are the causes of hair loss in men?

What are the causes of hair loss in men?

1. Dihydrotestosterone causes male hair loss

If the level of dihydrotestosterone in a man's scalp is too high, it can cause male pattern baldness. This is because dihydrotestosterone shrinks hair follicles and shortens the growth phase of hair, leading to a decrease in hair growth. Dihydrotestosterone is the invisible killer of male hair loss. Male pattern hair loss usually starts from the temples, and then the hair will gradually fall out as the age increases. Androgenic alopecia and seborrheic alopecia are the main causes of hair loss in men as they age.

2. Mental or physical factors cause male hair loss

Men bear greater responsibilities in social life. Many times, even if they are under great pressure, they keep it in their hearts, which can cause men to become nervous, depressed, fearful or insomniac. These emotions can cause nervous dysfunction in men, forcing the capillaries to gradually contract. When the hair follicles do not receive sufficient blood supply, the scalp at the top of the human body will experience hair loss due to insufficient blood supply. In addition, mental factors can also cause disruptions in the hair growth cycle and lead to premature baldness. If a man suffers from trauma, brain disease, etc., it may also cause hair loss.

3. Abnormal food and nutrition metabolism leads to male hair loss

Many men only eat meat and rarely eat fruits and vegetables. Picky eating can cause malnutrition in men. Some men may also suffer from inabsorption and digestion problems due to their own gastrointestinal diseases. If this continues for a long time, malnutrition will inhibit hair growth. When hair follicles enter the resting phase, hair loss, slow growth, and even hair loss will occur. In addition, if men consume excessive salt, sugar, selenium, etc., as well as metabolic abnormalities, they will cause hair loss.
