It is natural for every man and woman to experience hair loss at some point in their lives. However, the severity of hair loss may differ from one person to another. And it may happen earlier than usual for some people.

Male pattern baldness is the most common type of hair loss amongst men. Fifty per cent of the males over the age of fifty suffer from this situation. However, sometimes it starts at a younger age. When you have male pattern baldness while you are still young, it can be quite frustrating. 

If you take the necessary precautions and try treating it while it is still in the early stages, you may have a better chance of stopping early male pattern baldness. In this article, we will be listing some of the most effective ways that can help you with this problem.

Medications

You can use some prescription or over-the-counter medications for treating early male pattern baldness. The most common medications used for this purpose are minoxidil and finasteride. Minoxidil comes in foam or liquid form, and sometimes you can find it mixed in some special shampoos against hair loss. 

Drugs or any other products that contain minoxidil do not require a prescription. You can get them over the counter. On the other hand, finasteride is a medication in pill form which you take daily. Unlike the minoxidil, it requires the prescription of a doctor.

However, these medications may help only if you use them every day with the help of a professional. The day you stop taking them, the effects of the medications are going to fade away, and your hair loss problem may continue. Therefore, it is a temporary solution and may cause uncomfortable side effects when used for a long period.

Do Not Smoke

Smoking has countless harmful effects on our body, and hair loss is one of them. Researchers have found that smokers lose their hair earlier than nonsmokers do. So if you are a smoker, you may be able to prevent hair loss by quitting smoking ASAP.

Avoid Stress

Excessive amounts of emotional stress can also cause hair loss. If you think that you are starting to get bald earlier than you should, stress may be the reason for the hair loss. In order to avoid stress in your daily life, first, you should try to identify the source of the stress and then address it or channel the stress properly. If you have trouble doing that, you may consult a therapist who can help you with managing stress.

Hair Transplant

There are many remedies out there that supposedly can help with hair loss. However, the only one that can offer you permanent and natural results is a hair transplant operation. The operation has a high rate of success and minimal risks. 

What the doctors do during a hair transplant operation is simple to understand. They take the healthy hair follicles in grafts from the donor area (usually the back of the neck), and then they implant these grafts into the desired area. 

The results of the hair transplant operation are permanent, which means that you do not need to get another operation every once in a while. Moreover, you do not need to take any special care after the hair transplant. Once fully healed, you can wash, cut, and shape your transplanted hair in the same way that you did your original hair because the transplanted hair is literally your own natural hair.
