1- Definition of Androgen

'Androgen is the generic term referring to all the male sexual hormones.  The main one is testosterone. Those hormones, 95% of which are secreted by the testicles and 5% by surrenal glands, are the main cause of men's hair loss.

As soon as it goes through its target receptors, testosterone links itself to an enzyme called 5 alpha-reductase (5a), which metabolises it into a new androgen, DHT (dihydrotestosterone). On a healthy follicle, the two substances associate themselves with no consequence and are not in the way of the physiological development of men's hair.

3- The Notion of Genetic Predisposition

Problems occur in the case of genetic predisposition: when that is the case, there is a mutation of the hair follicle submitted to the negative influence of one or several so-called alopecia genes. There is then a series of consequences: the genes stimulate the activity of the 5 alpha-reductase, which itself triggers a much stronger secretion of DHT. This increased secretion unsettles the follicles' work, leads to their progressive deterioration and finally has a negative impact on the hair's normal development.

•  The alopecia genes can be transmitted to a son through his father's genetic code, or his mother's, or both. That does not mean that the child, whose genetic capital will include that heritage, will necessarily tend to lose his hair later: nothing is simple with regards to genetics, and a child can carry the genes without they ever taking action. It will partly depend on the whole of her personal factors, both physiological and physiological, which will determine whether or not the condition is developed.

•  It is not the quantity of secreted testosterone that matters but rather how 'ravenously' it is received and then transformed by the genetically programmed follicles. In other words, it is not a hormonal condition but rather one of the receptor.

• To this day, the alopecia genes have still not been isolated. When they are, the condition should be able to be totally eradicated by Genic Therapy. Several teams of geneticists around the world are currently working on this around the world.

5- Inhibiting Treatment

According to our statistics, the best results are obtained by associating a local Clauderer Treatment (100% natural molecules) to an anti-androgen hormonal treatment (by oral intake). The former cleanses the hair follicles and brings compensating vitamins to the roots, which are needed for the hair's anchorage and the regrowing hair's strength. The latter (if the diagnosis concludes that it is useful), weakens the the Testosterone - 5 alpha-reductase connection and reduces the secretion of DHT.

ANTI-HAIR LOSS CLAUDERER TREATMENT

IMPORTANT :
For those who are reluctant to follow a hormonal treatment, the Local Clauderer Treatment, with its exclusive formula made of anti-androgen plants and very active essential oils (without side effects) is often enough to neutralise the 5 alpha-reductase and to stop the hair loss In vivo test of Clauderer anti-hair loss treatment
