Di hydro testosteroneis a male hormone or an androgen. The main function of androgens is development of bone tissue as well as sex characteristics at puberty stage such as growth of pubic hairs and beards. Di hydro testosterone hormones are more active in embryos and fetuses for developmental in males. The hormone is derived from the combination of 5-alpha-reductase, an enzyme, with the sex hormone testosterone. After birth, the hormone has very insignificant functions in the body. However there may be an increase in its production. This increase leads to the subsequent attachment to hair follicles. When this happens, the hormone inhibits nutrient uptake by the roots causing death and loss of hair. Loss of hair is a very disturbing event for both men and women. Although this hormone is mostly associated with males, there are some females who produce it. This means that both sexes can be affected by hair loss as a result of the hormone. However, it is more common in men than in women. High levels of the hormone can also lead to the development of prostrate cancer. The action of the di hydro testosterone on the hair follicles has to be prevented as early as possible. The longer one takes to seek treatment, the more the hair follicles are damaged. Once the hair follicles have been damaged, there will be no hair growth leading to baldness. There are medications that can be taken that tend to inhibit the production of the hormone and its attachment to the follicles. This means the follicles will be able to take up nutrients and the hair will continue to grow and there will be no bald patches on the head. Medications are usually available over the counter in the form of topical creams or supplements. Most medications which are chemical based have adverse effects on the hormone testosterone. Testosterone is important in males for the production of sperm, synthesis of proteins, and development of the muscles, penis, body hair and a deep voice. When the production of testosterone is affected, there will be libido failure, less sex potential and infertility. Natural based medications have less adverse effects. The best type of medication is that which will be able to inhibit the hormone without affecting other hormones in the body. It is always important to contact a medical professional on the right type of medication to treat the condition. The level of the hormone should be checked constantly from puberty up to about forty years. It is during this period that there may be an overproduction of the hormones. High levels of the hormones will no only cause loss of hair, but also prostrate cancer. Hair loss is not socially accepted and thus losing your hair will definitely affect your social life and standing. It is even more stressful when you start losing your hair at a young age. Hair loss as a result of this hormone should be treated as early as possible, so that there is no permanent baldness.
