• Lee Seung Gi Revealed That He Is Currently Taking Hair Loss Treatment Medicines

    This is the 9th episode of the SBS entertainment show "Circle House"

    Singer and actor Lee Seung Gi confessed that he is currently taking hair loss medicine.

    Lee Seung Gi said when recording SBS' "Circle House" recently, "I'm taking hair loss medicine because my hair seems to be thinning."

    The designer, who even gave up marriage due to hair loss, introduced the discriminatory gaze he had suffered throughout his life due to a lack of hair than others and his own efforts to overcome it.

    "I put toothpaste on my scalp and ate a worm." The designer, who tried all kinds of folk remedies that are good for hair loss, said, "I've only had six hair transplants."

    The designer added, "Because we have data of hundreds of people who have hair loss due to the nature of their jobs, we expect when hair loss will occur if we look at people's heads." Then, he seriously asked for counseling, revealing that Lee Seung Gi is taking hair loss medicine.

    In 2014, a recent photo of Lee Seung Gi, who was serving in the military, was released, raising rumors of hair loss around the online community.

    Lee Seung Gi is likely to have inherited hair loss. This is because the characteristic of hereditary hair loss is that the hair becomes thinner and the hair density decreases due to poor growth.

    Taking hair loss treatments can prevent the progression of hair loss. You can also expect an increase in hair thickness.

    The way to self-diagnose hereditary hair loss is simple.

    You can check if there is a change in the hairline of the bangs. If the hairlines at both ends have retreated compared to before, genetic hair loss should be strongly suspected.

    Lee Seung Gi's photo at the time of enlistment suggests genetic hair loss. 

    Hair loss treatments are virtually divided into Pinasteride (Propesia) and Dutasteride (Avodart). There are several hair loss treatments on the market, but most of them are generic (replication drugs).

    The sales of the two drugs are similar, but there is a little more propecia. 

    These treatments prevent hair loss by combining male hormone testosterone with 5-alpha reductase that converts it into active dihydron testosterone.

    Women should never take it because it acts on male hormones. No, you can't even touch it. This is because it can have a great influence on hormonal changes.

    In the recording, not only Lee Seung Gi but also actor Han Ga In were reportedly diagnosed with shocking hair conditions and turned the recording site upside down.

    You can check it out on the 9th episode of SBS entertainment program Circle House, which will air at 9 p.m. on April 21.
