At what age does seborrheic alopecia often occur?
Seborrheic alopecia is a common type of all hair loss, which is mainly caused by excessive secretion of scalp oil. In brief, people with oily skin are more likely to suffer from seborrheic alopecia. According to Western medicine, people tend to think that seborrheic alopecia is related to the high level of human androgens, while Chinese medicine believes that it is related to the deficiency of human kidney and blood, So today we will look at the age at which seborrheic alopecia often occurs.
First, seborrheic alopecia mainly occurs in young men, but in recent years, the number of female patients has also increased. Patients with severe persistent hair loss usually begin in their twenties and reach their thirties, and their hair is basically shed in their forties, which seriously affects their appearance. Seborrheic alopecia mostly occurs in young adults with strong secretion of sebaceous glands. The hair of patients is relatively soft, and some patients even have symptoms of seborrheic dermatitis on the scalp. Hereditary alopecia actually inherits the characteristics of hair follicles. Some people's hair follicles are born with defects, and are more vulnerable to shrinking due to the stimulation of male hormones. In childhood, the male hormone secretion is less. In adulthood, the male hormone secretion increases, and starts to stimulate these defective hair follicles, leading to hair follicle atrophy and hair loss.
Secondly, excessive alopecia is often seen in men, and mental workers are more prone to suffer from the disease than manual workers. It is clinically proved that the causes of seborrheic alopecia may be related to endocrine function, mental state, genetic factors and some drug factors. In addition to genetic problems, hereditary alopecia also has DHT. The study found that there is a special hormone, dihydrotestosterone (DHT), in the scalp of patients with hereditary alopecia at the top and anterior part of the scalp, and its concentration level is very high. When the DHT in the scalp reaches a certain amount, the hair follicle will shrink and reduce the growth cycle of the hair, so that the hair will fall off.
