Have you ever wondered why male pattern baldness is so much higher than female pattern baldness?
Well, there are many reasons for this like too much mental stress and others, but now scientists have found another important reason that can lead to men losing hair in middle age.
And that is to spend most of your time working. In fact, working 52 hours per week can be beneficial career-wise, but it has negative effects on hair.
According to international media reports, this was revealed in a medical study in South Korea.
A study by Sungkyunkwan University surveyed more than 13,000 employees aged 20 to 59 between 2013 and 2017.
These people have been divided into 3 groups, one group was those who worked for 40 hours per week, the second was those who worked office hours up to 52 hours and the third group was 52 hours. It belonged to those who worked for more than an hour.
The researchers found that people who worked 52 hours per week in their third or fourth decade were twice as likely to develop premature balding as those who worked 40 hours per week.
Similarly, people who work more than 52 hours a day are more likely to develop premature baldness.
Researchers discovered that spending too much time in the office increases stress, which is already known to be a factor in hair loss.
They said that the results prove that there is a link between long hours of office work and baldness.
He further stated that young men above 20 or 30 years of age can reduce the risk of baldness to some extent by limiting their office hours.
He said that in the previous research reports, it has been revealed that the process of baldness is accelerated due to stress, and in the experiments conducted on rats, it was also found that stress stops hair growth and damages hair roots. arrives
