Addison E asked:


Hair loss is listed in the side effects for the medicine amitriptyline that I am taking. I was just wondering what could cause it. The sheet that I received with it said to consult doctor if you experience hair loss. I’m not, like, losing chunks or anything, but I keep finding a lot more hair all over the house. And when I am in the shower there is a lot more hair falling out when I run my fingers thourgh is and wash it.

I would love to have something that rids my skin of unwanted hair forever! But I’m sure it’s not forever. If it was, they wouldn’t have replacement warranties on it. lol

Does hair restoration surgery work?

Hi There,

Has anyone had a hair restoration surgery? If you have, does it work good?

I’ve tried Rogaine and some other stuff, but need a more permanent solution to my hair loss. A Toupee or wig is not an option.

Thanks!

Male hair loss is truly not an uncommon thing. An estimated 75 percent of all men experience hair loss in one form or another, mostly through genetic alopecia. Alopecia is the medical term for hair loss, and that’s right - there’s a gene for it. Even women may carry the gene, and suffer from genetic alopecia, but noticeably, these women are very few. Hair loss among both males and females are caused by the presence of androgens, or male hormones, which we are all born with. Understandably, male hair loss is more common because males have more androgens in their system. Testosterone is an androgen, and with age it converts into dihyrotestosterone (DHT) in males. DHTs are much stronger androgens than testosterone, and they accelerate genetic conditions like hair loss much faster. Bald or balding men have been found to contain a lot more DHTs in their system than normal men; however, they exhibit no significant advantage in regular testosterone count. There are different ways to remedy this condition… although as a whole, alopecia does not stop once it begins. While complete baldness is uncommon, hair will continue to fall out as a man with the alopecia condition continues to grow older. This is why it is necessary to take anti-hair loss medicine - such as Propecia and Rogaine, the more well-known brand names - regularly for the rest of one’s life. This will slow the process of alopecia dramatically, and even promote hair growth. But they will not make the alopecia condition go away on their own. Surgery is also an option. Advancements in medical technology have brought about significant improvements in hair surgery techniques. Microscopic follicular unit grafting is among them. Traditionally, surgeons used multi-bladed scalpels to graft patches of skin onto the pieces of scalp that most suffer from alopecia - but this sometimes produced an awkward look, because the root systems of the scalp have been damaged in the process of grafting. This awkwardness is now easily avoidable with new grafting techniques. Head gear, like caps, hats, and bandanas - and hairpieces like toupees and wigs, have also always been an option. These are considered more economical - although they could be rather uncomfortable and hard to work with in the long run. It’s up to you to decide which hair loss treatment would work out best. So should you or anyone you know experience hair loss - it’s important to bear in mind that it’s not the end of the world. Coping with male hair loss doesn’t mean you have to take it sitting down!

Are you seeing a sudden influx of hair in the sink each morning after you combed your hair? Found hair strewn everywhere on the floor and furniture, and it’s not even your pet’s? If so, you might be facing a grave situation – you may be afflicted with male hair loss.

Most male hair loss stems from hereditary reasons which mean that you may have inherited this hair defect from either one of your parents. However, male hair loss can also be attributed to the fact that you are experiencing high levels of stress due to a serious sickness, major surgery or work related pressure. Changes in your hormone levels will also cause your hair to shed excessively. And sometimes, a portion of medicines ingested will result in hair thinning. Medicines such as anticoagulants, medical substances used in chemotherapy sessions as well as excessive Vitamin A can cause male hair loss if you are not careful. If you spot fungal infections upon your scalp, don’t take it too lightly and try to remedy the situation soon as you can to prevent early male hair loss.

There are certain ways to counter male hair loss and these steps are very easy to follow with a small amount of discipline. For instance, if you are blessed with a head full of thick lush hair, don’t be too harsh on it. Comb your hair and avoid brushing it especially if you’ve just come out of the shower as wet hair is more susceptible to breaking. Ensure your daily meals contain plenty of protein. This can be found in most dairy products like milk, cheese and eggs. Otherwise, if all else fails do seek alternatives in the form of hair replacement therapies and custom hair wigs.

The Internet is rife with several hair loss myths that need to be debunk so that male hair loss sufferers will not be compelled to trust these mistruths. For example, if you find yourself being afflicted with male hair loss, no amount of cutting or shaving your hair can make it grow back speedily. Hair that sits above your epidermis upon your head are dead by nature and will not be affected at all should you cut it. And the next time someone claims that the reason behind your male hair loss is due to reduced blood flow on your scalp, don’t be too trusting and buy the hair replacement products that he or she is bugging you to purchase.
