Hair Loss: An Overview

The physiological process of hair loss accompanies every person throughout life. It is a natural phenomenon, part of the continuous cycle of hair growth and renewal.

Androgenetic Alopecia

In some individuals, however, episodes of excessive hair loss may occur. These can be caused by external, genetic, or hormonal factors, which prevent the body from regenerating hair at a sufficient rate to replace what is lost.

These combined factors — varying from person to person — give rise to the condition commonly known as baldness, or in medical terms, androgenetic alopecia.

Hair loss is much more widespread than one might think and primarily affects the male population.
In Italy, approximately 80% of men and 30% of women experience some form of androgenetic alopecia.

Baldness: A Condition Affecting Both Young and Adults

The first step in addressing hair loss is to identify the underlying cause.
Hair loss may be triggered by genetic, nutritional, emotional, or environmental factors.

Those affected by androgenetic alopecia do not experience temporary or episodic hair loss but rather a gradual and persistent process over time.

This occurs because androgenetic alopecia is linked to the presence of DHT (dihydrotestosterone) — a hormone responsible for damaging hair follicles and preventing natural regrowth.

When hair loss exceeds the body’s ability to regenerate new hair, the process becomes irreversible.
