What causes hair loss in men?

Male Pattern Baldness (MPB) is a genetic trait. It’s called Androgenetic Alopecia. It’s inherited from your family. If the men in your family are showing a bald spot on the crown, it’s likely you will too.
This is an issue men have been dealing with for centuries. According to legend, Julius Caesar invented the laurel leaf wreath to cover his receding hairline.
Too bad Julius didn’t have access to Provillus in the days of the Roman Empire.
MPB results from genetic traits, and hormonal causes. Provillus can’t change your genetic history, but it can help with the hormonal causes.

DHT is the hormone involved in hair loss
DHT (dihydrotestostrone) is derived from androgen, a male hormone. As the androgen circulates through the bloodstream, it is converted to DHT by the enzyme, 5-alpha reductase. DHT tends to bind to hair follicle receptors,
causing the follicles to sprout thinner and thinner hairs until nothing regrows, and the follicles eventually wither away.

The life cycle of normal hair growth
Normally, hair has three phases of growth:
Anagen – The growth phase, lasts for two to six years. Usually 90% of the hair is in growth phase.
Catagen -- A transient phase lasting a few weeks. The hair becomes thinner and the follicle starts shrinking.
Telogen – The thinned hairs fall off to make way for new hair. This lasts for two to four months.
When excess DHT is in the bloodstream, it shortens the Anagen, or growth phase, and causes premature shrinkage of the follicles. Because the DHT is bound to the follicle, often the hair will not re-grow normally.

Provillus helps block DHT from strangling your hair follicles.
Minoxidil, the ingredient clinically proven, and approved by the FDA for re-growing your hair, inhibits DHT. This powerful active ingredient works in your hair follicles.
We add a nourishing blend of natural herbs and minerals to the formula for men. These herbs and minerals support and provide nourishment to nourish your scalp and hair.

Causes of Women’s Hair Loss

It’s not your fault. The perms don’t cause it, hairdryers don’t cause it. Brushing, teasing, and curling don’t cause your hair to fall out. Not even coloring, days in the sun, or any of the other things you do to enhance the beauty of your hair.
The true causes of hair loss fall into three categories:
Hereditary Hairloss
Hormone surges or imbalances;
Serious health issues

Genetic Influences
Hereditary hair loss, or Alopecia, (the scientific name for Female Pattern Baldness), is said to account for 95% of female hair loss.
Actually, that’s good news, because Provillus for Women can help prevent thinning hair due to FPB, and support the re-growth of your own natural hair.
Hormone swings or imbalances
Childbirth is a time when a lot of women start losing hair. This is normal and temporary. As soon as your hormones return to pre-pregnancy levels, your hair will start to re-grow
Thyroid imbalances: Consult a doctor for this matter. Provillus will not help this type of hair loss is a symptom of a more serious problem. However, it can be treated, and then your hair will re-grow.
Menopause is another time when women’s hormones change. Almost 37% of women experience hair thinning after menopause. This is usually temporary, but your doctor can tell you more about it.
Serious Health Issues
Certain medical conditions, some prescription drugs, or severe illness (such as cancer) may contribute to hair loss. Again, this is usually temporary, but your health care provider will be able to advise you.
Provillus for Women with FPB
This is a two-part formula designed with women’s needs in mind. It’s similar, but quite different from the Men’s Formula.
