Baldness can start with thinning of the hair and progress into more severe thinning and baldness. Both men and women can suffer from this condition.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Male pattern baldness is responsible for up to 95% of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dherbs.com\/articles\/health-beauty\/is-your-hair-thinning-try-this-at-home-trick\/\">hair thinning<\/a> in men. Hair usually begins receding away from the normal hair line or thinning on the top of the head. As the thinning and receding progress, baldness occurs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Causes<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Male pattern baldness has a variety of possible causes. One cause is <strong>genetics<\/strong>. Scientists have discovered that baldness can be the result of a specific gene. The hormone <strong>DHT<\/strong> is the prime suspect in this condition. DHT is a male sex hormone that affects body and facial hair growth as well as function of the prostate. It is believed that the DHT hormone can shorten the growth phase of hair production, causing the hair grow properly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Other potential causes of baldness or hair thinning can include:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>Major trauma to the body such as surgery, poisoning or severe stress<\/li><li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.dherbs.com\/articles\/wellness-prevention\/the-dangers-of-chemotherapy\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"128\" title=\"The Dangers of Chemotherapy\">Chemotherapy<\/a><\/li><li>Medications for blood pressure, diabetes, cholesterol and heart disease<\/li><li>Hormones found in steroids and acne medications<\/li><li>Poor nutrition<\/li><li>Deficiencies in vitamins and minerals<\/li><li>Hyperthyroidism (overactive thyroid)<\/li><li>External debris and toxins<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Poor lifestyle<\/strong> plays a very prominent role or part in male baldness. Diets high in meat and refined foods, hormonal imbalances, stress and mineral deficiencies can affect male pattern baldness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.dherbs.com\/tag\/stress\/\">stress<\/a><\/strong> is an ever-present part of life today, it can be a hindrance to our bodies and minds. The stresses of jobs, family, money and health can cause a great deal of problems to our health. Learning how to prevent and handle stress is the only way to get ahead of the problems it can cause.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Natural Solutions<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>In order to alleviate male pattern baldness, getting ahead of the condition is key.

This can help to relax you throughout the day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Imaginative therapy<\/strong>, which is using the imagination as a therapy, can be a great form of positive thinking.

When negative thoughts arise in your mind, try replacing them with something more positive and uplifting. Positive thinking and thoughts greatly help to eradicate stress.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When treating your hair, use only all-natural products that don&#8217;t contain harmful, synthetic ingredients. Allowing the scalp to breathe can help the hair to grow properly. Try using natural coconut and sheaf oils on the hair for styling instead of the usual pomades and gels.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A <strong>high alkaline diet<\/strong> will greatly neutralize stress. The body is impacted differently and responds differently when your body is alkaline. A high alkaline diet would consist of plenty of green vegetables and eliminating meat, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dherbs.com\/articles\/wellness-prevention\/dangerous-dairy\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"121\" title=\"Dangerous Dairy\">dairy products<\/a> and starches. Avoid sugar, table salt, vinegar, alcoholic beverages, eggs, soda, refined grains and complex carbohydrate products. These foods impair overall health and can affect hair growth.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Male hormonal imbalance as well as male pattern baldness can be reversed or helped with herbs.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":31835,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[46,50,53,62],"tags":[3359,8778,8881,8941,9161,1929,1930,1951,1969,2983,3201],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v22.5 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Male Pattern Baldness | Dherbs, Dherbs News, Alternative Medicine, Herbal Remedies, Herbal Supplements, Male Baldness, Malnourishment, Stress, Natural Cure, Balding, Hair Loss Remedy - Dherbs Articles<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Male hormonal imbalance as well as male pattern baldness can be reversed or helped with herbs.
