Hair Loss: Don't Be Part of the Statistics

The Manila Times has reported the findings of a recent study which reveals that Asian men, particularly those from the Philippines, are seriously concerned about hair loss. Of those questioned, 69% of Asian men with hair lossfelt ‘sad’ when other people noticed or commented on their thinning hair.

A further 30% of Filipino men wished that they had more hair, revealing a direct link between hair loss and confidence.

Asian hair loss is a serious concern

According to the Philippine Council for Health Research and Development (PCHRD), 50 per cent of Filipino males will experience hair loss caused by Androgenic Alopecia by the time they reach the age of 40. Similar figures from American and British health organisation suggest that just 40% of men aged 40 are likely to experience any form of hair loss.

Androgenic Alopecia is the most common form of progressive hair loss in men and women across the world. Caused by a genetic predisposition, Androgenic Alopecia sees the hormone testosterone converted into a secondary compound called DHT, which goes on to attack the hair follicles. The hair attached to the follicle then falls out as the follicle itself shrinks, preventing natural regrowth.

However, a receding hairline and general hair loss is also the source of several psychosocial side-effects for Filipino men. The survey found that 20% of men did not feel as physically attractive to others once patchy baldness began to develop. Similarly one-fifth of respondents felt that losing their hair related to a direct loss in confidence and self-esteem.
