When people reach middle age, many male compatriots are troubled by baldness hair loss . Male compatriots who have early onset may start to lose their hair in their 20s, and finding a girlfriend will be disliked, which will greatly dampen their self-confidence. So some celebrities say that a man’s self-esteem is reflected in three things: one is height, the second is hair, and the third is apricot ability. The importance of height to men's confidence is self-evident. Hair and combat effectiveness are also crucial to men's heroism, and both are closely related to the prostate organ. Why do I say that? Let me tell you.

0 Men over 50 years old have symptoms of prostate hyperplasia such as difficulty in urination , urination waiting for , and urination , and as they age, the number of patients will increase. In the 1960s, the multinational pharmaceutical company Merck began to study male androgens. Their research found that due to the stimulation of androgen, the prostate continues to proliferate with age, causing the prostate to grow in size, which then compresses the urethra and surrounding tissues, causing symptoms of frequent urination, urgency, and incomplete urination. Inhibition of androgen secretion can reduce the size of the prostate and reduce symptoms. Androgens are mainly testosterone and dihydrotestosterone (DHT). Testosterone is converted into dihydrotestosterone , which is many times more active through 5-ɑ reductase. Merck has developed a new drug with 5-ɑ reductase inhibitor to inhibit the conversion of both. This drug is called finasteride and its product name is Polyridge. Research shows that Paulige can not only prevent prostate tissue hyperplasia, but also reduce the already enlarged prostate by about 20%, greatly reducing the symptoms. This drug has brought great success and profit to Merck.

and later in-depth research found that many patients with prostate hyperplasia and hair loss who had long-term oral administration of finasteride improved their hair loss and began to grow some new hair. Merck seized this discovery and continued to study the mechanism of male hair loss. Most male hair loss is androgenic hair loss, which is caused by male androgens (mainly testosterone and dihydrotestosterone) baldness and hairline upward movement, and hair thinning and softening. After the androgens in men's body act on hair follicles, they can cause hair follicles to shrink and hair fall off. So why do they only turn the hair on the top of the head and forehead? That is because the hair on the top of the head and forehead has more androgen receptor action points (receptors), which means that the skin in these two places is more sensitive to androgens. Merck's research has found that oral low doses of finasteride can inhibit the formation of more active dihydrotestosterone, thereby inhibiting hair loss. Merck then developed a low-dose finasteride (1mg), the product name is Baofazhi. It was approved for marketing with FDA in 1997. It is one of the few drugs that have clearly proven to be useful for androgen hair loss.

You can often see the male protagonist in foreign movies with muscles, and the cool bald head, such as the male protagonist of speed and passion. Androgen, strong muscles, and bald heads often appear together. About 20% of men in yellow people, including China, have androgen hair loss, while white people have a higher proportion of androgen hair loss. European white people also have a higher proportion of prostate cancer than East Asian yellow people. Is hair loss related to prostate cancer? Currently, preliminary studies believe that white men with hair loss are more likely to develop prostate cancer in their later years than normal people, and the specific reasons are still unclear.

has said so much, but in fact, it is just to clarify several lines. The pathogenesis of androgen alopecia in men is very similar to prostate hyperplasia, and the treatment of drugs is also different doses of the same drug. So the question is, is hair loss related to prostatitis ?

Unfortunately, there are no relevant research reports in professional medical journals now, but we can boldly assume and carefully verify. The symptoms of frequent urination and incomplete urination of prostatitis are very similar to prostate hyperplasia. Many patients with prostatitis have a volume reduction as the blocked gland ducts are empty, and the symptoms will also be reduced. Moreover, stone particles that block the gland ducts can often be seen during electroresection surgery for prostate hyperplasia.Various clues suggest that the pathogenic mechanisms of prostatitis and prostatic hyperplasia are similar, and the latest domestic expert consensus also mentions the use of finasteride to treat prostatitis. Moreover, most patients with prostatitis have psychological problems such as anxiety and worry, and mental stress is also an important factor that causes hair loss. Traditional Chinese medicine says that in addition to blood, patients with prostatitis have too strong heart fire, and their heart fire is tormented, and blood is not thrilling, so hair loss is inevitable.

To sum up, patients with prostatitis may be prone to hair loss, but as the symptoms of prostatitis improve, hair loss will generally improve. The latest domestic expert consensus also mentioned the use of finasteride to treat prostatitis. It is not recommended that patients take finasteride orally without authorization, because the side effects of finasteride include reduced cholesteride and decreased desire, and some patients have obvious side effects. To treat prostatitis and hair loss, it is best to treat it according to the system's standardized treatment first. This is the correct choice. Opening up the blocked gland duct is one of the effective methods.
