Don’t waste your money on either of them. You won’t grow a full head of hair. It will be so thinly distributed you might as well be bald.

Answer by M.D. Alison C
year ago my husband suffered from hair loss too and he started trying everything you can imagine to stop his hair loss. the things that really worked for him was:

1) Vitamin A – an anti-oxidant which promotes healthy production of sebum in the scalp;

2) Vitamin E stimulates circulation. Good blood circulation in the scalp is important in keeping hair follicles productive. The ‘B’ vitamins contribute to melanin, which gives hair its healthy color and also stimulates blood circulation;

3) massage is also beneficial. Massage stimulates circulation. As already noted, good circulation in the scalp keeps hair follicles active. Experts suggest a few minutes of daily head massage by hand. Circulation through massage may be improved by using a few drops of lavender or bay essential oil in an almond or sesame oil base with massage;

4) Try rubbing your scalp with garlic juice, Onion Juice or Ginger Juice(you can either of one out of three, Do not mix any of two or three);

5) also used herbal treatment.in that case Provillus is a good product that helps prevent hair loss and it is an FDA approved product. I think it is very important!

It worked and still works for him!

I do not know if any pharmacies carry Provillus but I do know that you should purchase it directly from the manufacturer and read more about the product here http://www.provillus.com/?aid=749165

It restores hair follicles by blocking DHT!!!

good luck!

not only my and my husband`s own personal experience

Question by Fred: what are the quickest and most effective treatments for hair loss (alopecia) in 15 year old?

Best answer:

Answer by dr.marcovici
I will relegate my response to the presumption that you are, first of all, a male, and second, experiencing common pattern hair loss aka androgenetic alopecia (AGA). For anyone who does not fit these two conditions, the following advice may not apply.

AGA is by far the most widespread form of hair loss affecting more than 95% of those who experience loss of hair. It is axiomatic that the younger a person is when they begin losing hair the more severe the degree of loss will be. Until recently, few safe and efficacious options of any kind were available.

In the past few years a number of options have been tested and made available. Two choices will be discussed in this response. The first is pharmacotherapy (Rx). The second is non-drug, botanically-based.

The Rx options for a man consist of basically three choices. The first, topical minoxidil (Rogaine™), is applied directly to the thinning scalp once or twice daily. Published studies show that the use of this drug can arrest, or in some cases reverse thinning hair — however the specific mechanism of action by which minoxidil affects hair growth remains undetermined.

Observed side effects of oral minoxidil include pericardial effusion, occasionally progressing to tamponade, and angina pectoris may be exacerbated. In experimental animals, minoxidil caused several kinds of myocardial lesions as well as other adverse cardiac effects. Side effects with topical minoxidil are typically noted to be less severe but negative side effects are certainly not unknown.

The next drug available to treat pattern hair loss is oral finasteride (1 mg. Propecia™). Finasteride, a type II 5 alpha-reductase inhibitor has also demonstrated efficacy in blinded clinical trials. In a 5-year study of men with mild to moderate hair loss, 48% of those treated with Propecia (finasteride 1mg) experienced some regrowth of hair, and a further 42% reported no further loss.

Side effects reported with finasteride include a change in prostate specific antigen (PSA) levels, feminizing birth defects, impotence, decreased libido, gynecomastia (male breast enlargement) and others.

Dutasteride, a dual 5 alpha-reductase inhibitor was recently approved for the treatment in men of pattern hair loss. Unlike finasteride, dutasteride blocks both known isoforms of 5 alpha-reductase; type I & type II. Some studies suggest that dutasteride outperforms finasteride in preventing hair loss.

Known side effects of dutasteride are similar to those observed with finasteride. These include impotence, decreased libido, ejaculation disorders, gynecomastia and other potential issues.

Recently, a novel approach to the problem has been the administration of non-drug based botanically-derived therapy. The concept for this has come from the use of botanicals to treat benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), a disorder with a somewhat similar metabolic chain of events to pattern hair loss.

Several non-drug treatment choices have become available in the past few years. Although most naturally derived hair loss treatments advertise a high safety profile — particularly when compared against pharmacotherapy, few are supported with published clinical research. This is highly relevant inasmuch as without objective evidence it becomes difficult, if not impossible, to assess the potential utility of a given product.

To sum up, particularly for a young person (age 15) who is beginning to experience hair loss, a reasoned approach, of balancing known clinical utility against potential negative side effect, must be employed. Pharmacotherapy offers putative benefit but, especially for a young person, may exhibit unreasonable potential risk. Non-drug based therapies offer the promise of safer clinical results but must be scrutinized to focus on those that truly back their claims with empirical data.

The best resource I can suggest to anyone concerned about hair loss is to enlist the aid of one’s primary care provider because this is, presumably, an informed advocate who has the patient’s best interests in mind.

Question by reloaded: what are the most effective products against hair loss today?

Answer by fusion2090
Hi,

There are many hair loss products available on the internet. Unfortunately some of them are bad but there are some good ones.

I suffered from hair loss three years ago and bought a lot of treatments, over $ 1000 worth. Basically, I wasted my money on a lot of uneffective products before I finally found one that worked.

The hair loss treatment below is a product that an old friend recommended to me and it has really helped me.

The product shows both male and females how to strengthen, restore AND revitalize hair naturally without side effects.

Question by eyesofatigerrr: What can you take to prevent male hair loss/thinning that is relatively cheap but effective?

Best answer:

Answer by Mukunda M
This treatment is NATURAL, safe, and truly stops loss almost straight away and has helped others on ANSWERS.(can send you info.) It also forces new growth. Massage thoroughly with olive or any natural oil – then brush vigorously using a palm held brush with short natural boar bristles – soft bristled for fine straight hair and stiff bristled for thicker non straight hair- so you really feel it stimulating scalp – 90 /100 strokes at beginning building up to more – each day, focusing on where loss is. Will heal scalp and unplug blocked hair ducts that sometimes cause loss – they are the painful small itching spots. A little shedding and breakage may occur at first but quickly stops as brushing makes hair stronger and better anchored. It will grow fast, thicker and It will force the new growth. Initially new hairs will be weak looking and sparse. Don’t be concerned if brushing uproots them as they will re-appear even stronger. My hair has completely regrown on crown. Where receded at front regrowth was slower and sparse at first then each month it became denser. It demands perseverance week in, week out to get the same results.
Thinning and loss can be caused by many shampoos – particularly anti dandruff ones – and hair products that contain countless hair, scalp and even health harming harsh and toxic ingredients. Washing hair too frequently is another cause – removes beneficial natural oils and contributes to loss. Find “Non harmful shampoos, etc” with Google searches. Some will come up and be expensive or only available on-line so refine search by adding “low cost” and “available in stores” Find in GNC ,Trader Joes, Some Walmart Stores, Cost Plus, Wegmans, Earth Fare, natural & health foods stores.
I Have had feed back from someone who has had even more success using treatment. His has substantially regrown in just 6 months.
Wish you the best.
