Have you ever heard or read about DHT and androgenic alopecia?

Androgenic alopecia is male hormone originated hair loss. This generally occurs on the top and front areas of your scalp which causes your hair line to recede after many years. This is partly responsible for the baldness or any kind of pattern baldness in male and female. DHT (Dihydrotestosterone) is a derivative of male hormone called as testosterone. This male hormone is not only present in males (300-1000 ng/dL) but, also females in small quantities (9-55 ng/dL). In an adult every day almost 10 percent of the testosterone gets converted into DHT. If there is a large amount of DHT flowing through the blood stream then, it starts to get linked with the receptors present on the hair follicles. This causes shrinkage of hair follicles and thus, increases hair fall leading to baldness.
