stars in most of cases in age between 27 and 40 but in some cases it can start
at age of 18, and so earlier in other cases, but what happen inside the human

loss?
Pattern
baldness and hair loss , scientifically called andogenetic alopecia , it’s
basically related with the testosterone hormone , at the age when genetic hair
loss begins ,it’s time when testosterone hormone starts to be catalyzed to dht
, dht is another format of testosterone , (dihydro-testosterone), it’s the
responsible of the hair follicles damage ,this molecule attack the follicles
this lead to thinning hair , with time develop to hair loss.
The
transformation of testosterone to dihydro-testosterone is catalyzed by 5-alpha
reductase, with his two types I and II it’s the enzyme responsible of the
pattern hair loss chaos , so to stop the hair loss its required to stop this
catalyzed transformation.
How to
inhibit the work of 5-alpha reductase:
dht
blockers are the useful treatments in this case, they are a treatments and
drugs with ability to inhibit the 5-alpha reductase, there is many natural
herbs and plants contains some dht blockers , for example green tea, it contain catechin a molecule with properties that help to block the 5-alpha reductase,
also caffeine and saw palmetto ...
Also many
chemical treatments and solutions were developed to help to block dht, and
associated with usual shampoos and drugs, Those treatments called dht blockers , and it's better to mex it with other treatments for best results.
