Why It Happens: From Hormones to Heredity

The most common culprit behind male hair loss is androgenetic alopecia, a hereditary condition driven by a hormone called dihydrotestosterone (DHT). Elevated DHT causes hair follicles to shrink, leading to thinner, weaker strands over time. But that’s not the only trigger. Hormonal hair loss in men, whether due to testosterone imbalances or thyroid-related disorders, can disrupt the hair growth cycle. Others may experience stress-induced hair shedding—a condition called telogen effluvium—or immune system-related hair loss like alopecia areata, where the body mistakenly attacks its own hair follicles. Pinpointing the source of the problem is crucial for finding the right solution.

Solutions That Support Regrowth

Hair loss isn’t just about looks—it can hit your confidence, your routine, even the way you feel about getting ready in the morning. And while there’s a lot of noise out there, real solutions start with understanding what’s going on beneath the surface. For many men, that means addressing a mix of things: changes in hormones, genetics, stress, or even the health of your scalp. There’s no instant fix—but there are ways to take better care of your hair and give it what it needs to stay strong. It’s not about chasing perfection—it’s about having a plan that actually respects what you’re dealing with and helps you feel more like yourself.

Caring For Your Scalp, Daily

If your scalp isn’t healthy, your hair won’t be either. Conditions like excess oil, buildup, or irritation can create a hostile environment for follicles, reducing your hair’s potential to grow. In fact, issues linked to thyroid dysfunction,stress, or inflammation often begin at the scalp level. Scalp-focused products—like exfoliating treatments or pH-balanced cleansers—can help manage stress hair loss, rebalance oil production, and improve circulation. Think of your scalp as the soil for your hair: nourish it properly, and it’s far more likely your hair will thrive.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is FGF5?

FGF5 is a natural protein produced in the scalp that stops hair growth and initiates hair fall. In a normal, healthy hair cycle, the hair fall is followed by the emergence of a new hair from stem cells in the scalp. However, if you are stressed, have hormonal changes, inadequate nutrients, are responsive to DHT or have a genetic predisposition, too much FGF5 can build up in the scalp resulting in excess hair fall, slow growth, poor quality hair and hair loss. This process can also happen as we age. By blocking the action of FGF5, the negative impact of this protein can be halted or reversed, resulting in increased growth, reduced hair fall and better quality, youthful hair.

How long do I need to use the products before I notice results?

You will need to use évolis® for a minimum of 16 weeks or 120 days to see significant results, but you will be able to notice a number of changes much sooner. Results you can expect include:

• Less hair fall in the first 30 days of use. This means less hair in the sink, on the brush or on your pillow.

• Change in hair texture to smoother and more manageable in 30-60 days of use

• Improvement in thinning areas in 60-90 days of use

• Increased density and appearance in 90-120 days of use

• Fine, downy hair texture change to appear stronger and thicker in 120+ days of use

We recommend continued use to maintain your amazing results.

What types of hair loss with évolis® help?

This will include:

  • hormonal activity, menopause, post-partum hair loss
  • illness, fever
  • stress and lifestyle
  • Androgenic Alopecia or Male Pattern Baldness
  • Telogen Effluvium

évolis® should not be used in those with autoimmune hair loss (e.g. alopecia areata) or to prevent hair loss due to chemotherapy.

Can I use minoxidil and évolis® together?

Yes, you can certainly use evolis® with minoxidil, you may find they help each other. Just be mindful that stopping minoxidil suddenly can result in more shedding.
