What causes Excessive Male Hair Loss at Young Age?

Posted on Wednesday, October 21, 2009 at 3:51 pm


It’s not always straight forward why some men lose their hair at a younger age then others. It’s thought sometimes to be caused by heredity from your father or grandparents, or even possibly wearing a hat too much when you’re younger. While it is possible that wearing a hat too often could cause some hair loss, the primary cause of premature male pattern baldness is a compound found naturally in our bodies known as DHT. ‘

DHT is derived from the male hormone testosterone. If a man has elevated levels of testosterone, or is known to convert too much testosterone to DHT in their bodies then they have an elevated risk of thinning hair and excessive hair loss.

DHT & Hair Loss

DHT travels through the body where it reaches the scalp and latches on to hair follicles. At first there is no apparent damage being done. Over time how ever DHT causes the hair follicle to shrink. With a smaller hair follicle there are fewer hairs that can grow, and the hair becomes thinner. At an extreme point the hair follicle will actually go dormant and no more hair will grow from it. It’s at this dormant stage that you generally cannot revive the follicle back to grow more hair and you’re forced to look at hair transplants or other surgical procedures.

Stopping Hair Loss Before it’s Too Late

There is good news here. You can stop DHT from forming in the body and attaching to your hair follicles. There are several methods you can use to stop hair loss including supplements, shampoos and other topical treatment products.

Of course surgical alternatives and transplants are always available but they are known to be expensive and sometimes painful.

It’s Never too Early to Start

If there is any advice that is golden for a man losing their hair at a young age it’s to start treating it early. The earlier you start treating excessive hair loss the better chance you have of reviving those hair follicles and growing back a fuller head of hair. If you wait until later in life chances are the follicles will have gone dormant and there will be no way to turn back the clock to and regrow the hair you’ve lost.

Weight loss program cause of a woman’s death

Posted on Friday, October 16, 2009 at 7:35 am


A woman has died after her attempts to lose weight saw her lose 3 stone on an extreme diet in an attempt to get slim for her wedding.

Samantha Clowe, who was 34, was 17st 6lbs when she started the Lighter Life weight loss program. The company provides weight loss advice telling participants to stick to a 500 calories a day, which she stuck to until her death 11 weeks later.

At the inquest, it was revealed that after visiting her mother in Southport, Lancarshire, a few hours later her fiancée Andrew Smith found her collapsed on the landing of the Leeds home they shared. The Home Office pathologist Dr Alfredo Walker said that after a post-mortem the cause of death was not established but added that “It may be related to her low calorie diet and weight loss.”

A narrative verdict was recorded and the West Yorkshire coroner David Hinchcliff said that it was “highly likely” that Samantha, a graduate of Leeds University, died due to her heart stopping beating, known as cardiac arrhythmia.

At the inquest, those present heard that Samantha followed the advice of Lighter Life and visited her doctor for weight loss advice and to ensure she could safely start the program before she began. She also had two monthly check-ups with her GP while on the program.

To lose weight, she ate the low-calorie soups, shakes and snacks sold by the company and regularly attended meetings, where she received weight loss tips and weight loss advice, as well as being weighed.

Lighter Life is a program created for those who are severely overweight, with a Body Mass Index of over 25. At the meetings as well as receiving weight loss tips participants take part in cognitive behavioural therapy to change their relationship with food.

Those with lower BMIs receive weight loss advice telling them to eat three food packs a day plus a conventional meal, while those who have a BMI over 30 are meant to only eat 4 food packs a day and no normal meals.

The company promise that their diet is “fast, simple, safe and sustainable” and a spokesperson expressed regret for Miss Clowe’s death, though they refuted any suggestion that her death was related to the program.
