Hair plays a major role in one's life.

A person's hair is one of the first characteristics we notice upon meeting.
Severe hair loss causes not only cosmetic concerns but may also evoke feelings of vulnerability, loss of self-esteem, alterations in self-image, and perhaps even self-identity.
Like skin cells, our hair grows and sheds regularly. We shed approximately 50 to 100 scalp hairs per day, and the average growth rate is about 1/2 inch per month. Hair grows best between the ages of 15 to 30 and hair begins to slow down somewhere between the ages of 40 to 50.
HAIRLOSS: The most common form of hair loss is determined by our hormones.
These chemical substances are a category of proteins that regulate practically all body functions.
Some hormones cause rapid effects, while others take many years to cause any noticeable changes, such as pattern hair loss.
One class of hormones directly related to pattern hair loss are the androgens.
They cause the largest most single type of recognizable Alopecia to affect both men and women. Androgens are also known as the "male" sex hormones.
Although they are typically found in greater amounts in men, women also have plenty of androgens. Testosterone is probably the best known of all the many androgens, and it plays a key role in androgenetic alopecia (hair loss).
