Men Pattern Hair Loss - Ten Myths
Copyright © 2006 James Fellow

Myth 1: The hair loss is carried out in a random way.

Reality: False. Hair loss related to androgenic alopecia, the
most current baldness form, progresses in a foreseeable way.
Thus, women presents a general thinning on the top of the head,
while for men, edges moves away gradually from the face until
taking the shape of Mr. If baldness continues, hair on the top of
the head are also likely to fall.


Myth 2: Loosing hair can start at any age.

Reality: In general, hair loss starts only after puberty. For
men, 95% hair loss cases are ascribable to hereditary phenomenon
named "androgenic alopecia" or common baldness. At 50 years age,
half men present a certain degree of baldness. For woman, hair
loss, which is especially observed after the menopause, happen to
between 40 and 50% of women.


Myth 3: The men bald people are less virile.

Reality: Here is a myth that goes up to thousands of years.
Today, the industry continuously publicizes and entertains images
of men with hair as tempting, prosperous, strong and powerful.

Although there is not any scientific proof binding baldness and
virility, studies show that men bald people are generally less
satisfied with their appearance and have the impression to be
older than their age.


Myth 4: Hairs don't come back.

Reality: Hairs can grow again depending on what was the origin of
baldness. Generally, hairs grow again when hair loss subjacent
cause ends: life stressing event, disease like cancer or lupus,
recent surgery, infection, drug taking or drugs, deprives
nutritive or a too strict diet. However, androgenic alopecia must
quickly be treated. The earlier the hair loss is treated, the
better the chances of success.


Myth 5: Women do not lose their hair.

Reality: Women lose their hair in the same proportion as men, but
usually in a less significant way. Thus, when they reach the
menopause, between 40 and 50% present a certain degree of
baldness related to androgenic alopecia. Female baldness appears
especially on the top head and sides. Hair loss is more diffuse
and affects larger area than for men. As oppose to men, women
usually do not present empty plates but rather a thinning of the
whole hair. Although female baldness can occur as of puberty, it
usually appears after the menopause.


Myth 6: To have healthy hair, one must consume much protein.

Reality: Although it is made up primarily of proteins, the hair
requires, to be in good health, of the same report/ratio of
proteins, lipids (fat content), of carbohydrate (sugar), vitamins
and minerals that the remainder of the body. Diverse food
consumption in sufficient quantity is the key to keep itself in
good health and to have healthy appearance hair.


Myth 7: a) If my father loses many hairs, it will be the same for
me. b) Baldness is a genetic character transmitted by the mother.

Reality: It is true that the predisposition to baldness is
hereditary. However, one can inherit baldness from his father as
well as from his mother. It is generally believed that baldness
is associated with genes. Moreover, as baldness is a dominating
character, people who are born with those genes are likely to
present early or late baldness at a certain degree.


Myth 8: The fact of shaving and of cutting the hair has
consequences on the growth and the texture of the hair.

Reality: Research showed that none of these activities has effect
on the growth and texture of the hair.


Myth 9: All men expect to lose their hair and this is why
baldness does not disturb them.

Reality: Studies revealed that baldness can appear particularly
disconcerting for many men. Indeed, a great number of men bald
people are concerned by their condition and less at ease in their
relations with others and, consequently, feel depressed. Some
must even ask for the assistance of a professional to overcome
the psychological effects of baldness.


Myth 10: Nothing can be done against hair loss.

Reality: This assertion was true a few years ago. But much
progress was accomplished since the fight against baldness.
According to the importance of hair loss, a doctor can prescribe
different drugs to counter the problem.
