How to treat baldness?

by Paul

What is baldness? In medical terms baldness is called as Alopecia. Baldness is the loss of hair and the scalp is viewable to normal eyes. This condition is more prevalent in men than women. Hair loss is mainly due to age, illness, hereditary, changes in hormones etc.

In male pattern baldness the loss of hair is in the front side of the head, crown or thinning of hair. Some men do lose all their hair. In female pattern baldness, the hair gets thin all over the head or mainly in the crown and front position. In female pattern baldness, it is very rare to see fully bald women.

How to treat baldness? The doctor takes into account the age, heath condition, family history, tolerance for certain medicines etc. There is no treatment for baldness but hair replacement surgery can be done to fix some hair in the bald spot on the head. This is a little painful process. 99% of baldness has no cure through medications. There is lots of medication available over the counter for alopecia, but most of them are of no use. The baldness in men starts in the shape of "M" and the hair becomes very thin and small. Baldness could lead to lower self-confidence and low self-esteem.

Shiny top on the head is always something, which would make a baldy, lose his self-esteem. Though slowdown in the process of hair loss can be achieved, hair growth is not possible. If baldness is detected early then certain precautions can be taken to prevent further falling of hair.
