AGA (Androgenetic hair loss) is known as male pattern baldness. AGA is different from alopecia, and is mostly characterized by the progression of a receding hairline and/or hair loss on the top of the head with onset starting after puberty. The hair gets thinner and shorter. Basic genetic mechanisms such as DHT are major two factors that are involved in AGA.

AGA is mainly caused by basic genetic mechanisms DHT (Dihydroteststerone) One of the major factors is that men who suffer from male pattern hair loss (related to male hormone) have increased levels of DHT.

DHT is produced when an enzyme called E-Alpha-reductase converts the hormone testosterone into DHT which has a devastating effect on the hair follicle so it begins to shrink, weaken and the hair eventually falls out.

Nowadays, it is easy to start finding ways to try and prevent hair loss. With the help of the internet and the increased availability of hair growth products, scalp shampoos, and massages, it is possible to to start making a difference to your hair. However, even if these solutions can help slow down the progression of the hair loss, they will not be effective if the cells in the hair follicles are dead. This is why it is important to have a good hair growth regimen.
