For Men There are a lot of causes of hair loss in men, like stress, over dieting, hair pulling or even certain hairstyles like dreadlocks or cornrows. But the leading cause of hair loss in men is androgenetic alopecia (male pattern hair loss). It is a pattern because almost all men experience the same stages of balding - starting with a receding hair line. Ultimately, the older they get, the more hair loss occurs, until only a rim of hair is left along the temples to the back of the head. The hair loss gene causes the hair follicles in the scalp to become sensitive to dihydrotestosterone or DHT. This is a hormone regularly produced in the body. Both hormones are androgens, but DHT is far more potent than testosterone, making it an important male hormone.. Hair loss treatments works by inhibiting DHT. Since this hormone is an important hormone, it is best to stop its harmful effects locally at the scalp. This way, no side effects can occur. | For Women Women can experience hair loss at any age due to stress, pulling of hair, hormones, diets, medications and genetics. Some temporary and some permanent - like androgenetic alopecia - cause progressive hair loss. In these cases, a hair loss treatment is needed to slow down and stop this condition. Androgenetic alopecia is caused by a male hormone called dihydrotestosterone or DHT. For some reason, the hair loss gene makes the hair follicles on the scalp sensitive to DHT. This slowly causes the hair follicles to shrink, making thinner and thinner hair, until only thin transparent hair is produced (fuzz). To stop the harmful effects of DHT on the scalp, a natural/herbal hair loss treatment should be used, because these are safe and have no side effects whatsoever. | About The Manufacturer Nisim International is a Canadian company that manufactures herbal-based products.
