Introduction
Male pattern baldness (AGA) is a serious problem for many men. In addition to conventional treatments, a natural therapy called aromatherapy (aromatherapy) is gaining attention for its effectiveness in treating AGA. Aromatherapy is a method of improving physical and mental health through the use of fragrance, and is expected to be effective in reducing stress and promoting blood circulation. This article will explain in detail how aromatherapy can be useful for AGA treatment, specific methods and scientific evidence.
AGA is a progressive alopecia that causes gradual thinning of hair on the crown and frontal areas of the head due to heredity and hormonal imbalance. it occurs when the hormone DHT (dihydrotestosterone) acts on the hair follicles and shortens the hair growth cycle. It progresses in the following stages
Early stage: thinning of the frontal hairline and the crown of the head.
Mid-term stage: Thinning of hair in the frontal and parietal areas progresses, and the surface of the skin becomes easily visible.
Progressive stage: The frontal and parietal areas become even thinner, leaving only the temporal and occipital areas.
What is aromatherapy?
Aromatherapy is a therapy that uses essential oils extracted from plants to improve physical and mental health. Smelling the aroma helps to relax, reduce stress, and promote blood circulation. Aromatherapy is practiced in the following ways
Diffuser: A method of enjoying fragrance by diffusing essential oils into the air.
Massage: Massaging the scalp and body with essential oils diluted in a carrier oil.
Bath: A method of taking a bath with a few drops of essential oils.
Aromatherapy is highly relaxing and helps reduce stress. Decreased stress reduces the secretion of cortisol (stress hormone) and may slow the progression of AGA.
Hemodynamic facilitation
Essential oils have the ability to stimulate blood circulation. In particular, massaging them into the scalp helps to distribute nutrients and oxygen to the hair follicles. This promotes hair growth.
Anti-inflammatory (medicine)
Some essential oils have anti-inflammatory properties and improve scalp health. A healthy scalp environment is important for hair growth.
