Exercise And Hair Loss

Exercise is a very important part of a healthy lifestyle - it makes us feel good, releases endorphins in the body that make us happy and keep all the health risks at bay such as diabetes or high blood pressure. But with anything, too much of a good thing can sometimes have negative impacts on our physical health. For example, if someone who is very active solely focuses on a certain type of exercise, this can sometimes affect the body in different ways - depending upon the person and many other factors.

It is said that certain kinds of exercise release more hormones in the body that cause a certain level of muscle build. If a man or woman is doing a lot of weight lifting, the hormones in the body actually change. If you ever notice that female bodybuilders, for example, have more masculine bodies. CNN posted an article about the link between heavy weight lifting and hair loss and if there a real connection between the two. Basically, by the age of 35, 2/3 of men in American will experience some kind of hair thinning or loss and the numbers only increase for men in their 50s and older. When testosterone is converted in dihydro testosterone (DHT) in the body, it attacks the hair follicles and causes thinning and overall loss as well. Although there are no direct studies that indicate that a weight loss program actually causes hair loss, weight lifting in general does raise the levels of the testosterone hormone in the body. So when the body's hormones are out of wack, this leaves the person potentially more vulnerable to DHT that causes hair loss.

So overall, there is absolutely no link between the two and it's important to explore all causes and factors that are on setting this condition before considering that the exercise is what is causing the condition. For the body overall, frequent weight lifting and strain on the body and on the muscles will cause the body to change and adapt to this kind of exercise. But as far as pattern baldness is concerned, it's more likely a genetic unavoidable factor than one being caused by your dumbbells.

Hair Loss And Exercise

For those of us who want to look our very best and stay healthy, fit and active - it's hard to tell someone who has a fairly regular exercise routine that they have to change it or not exercise as much. Wait, isn't exercise good for me? Well, yes it is good for everyone to stay active. But, as there is with everything else in this world, there can be too much of a good thing. Certain types of exercise have been said to raise testosterone levels in men and sometimes even women. If you ever notice female body builders, they tend to have very masculine figures due to the type of exercise they are doing, in their case it's weightlifting.

So, with certain exercises, most notably weightlifting, raise testosterone levels in the body, it has also been said that this type of exercise under these conditions can cause hair loss in men and women. And a majority of those that experience hair loss that suspected it was from their exercise routine were actually women. This is not saying that exercising will cause hair loss - but it is possible that over exercising has negative affects on the body. When trying to determine what is causing your hair loss, it's important that active individuals look at their exercise regimens to rule out if that may be causing hormonal changes in the body so much that it is affecting the follices. Since the main cause of genetic hair loss is the production of the hormone dihydrotestosterone in the body, it wouldn't be crazy to think that over-exercising would cause this.

Before resorting to the result that your exercise regimen is causing thinning, it's important to go to the doctor to get a diagnosis - sometimes it can be from something else entirely unrelated. So when choosing a hair loss treatment, you choose the correct one that will work based on the cause of your condition. Tell your doctor about your exercise routine and your concerns that it might be causing this condition. It's also important to look at your family history to see if genetic hair loss runs in the family. It's important to rule out every other cause before assuming it's from over-exercising.
