Worried about hair loss

If you are worried about hair loss you are not alone. In fact, I felt the same way over a decade ago and can totally relate. The good news, for me at least, is I was able to halt and then reverse my hair loss after a few years of costly trial and error. The bad news for you is that there is a great deal of misleading information out there combined with false hope promises that can leave the rapidly balding man or woman with nothing but a shower drain filled with scalp hair and an empty wallet.
Note: There is also the concern that after years of failed searching the amount of hair lost may have become so great that hair transplant surgery could be the only realistic option.
In this article I will do my best to provide individuals who are worried about losing their hair with at least some actionable information they can use to halt, and possibly reverse, the balding they are experiencing. So on that note why don't we get started.
First, minoxidil infused products may not be the answer. While we typically think modern medicine has all the answers when it comes to reversing hair loss this is simply not the case. According to information straight out of the popular minoxidil infused product information packet these products are not intended for frontal baldness or a receding hairline. The very next paragraph is adjacent to a few diagrams and states that if the hair loss is significant (the diagrams are showing about 2 percent scalp balding) these types of products may not work. Additionally, new hair re-growth will only be achieved in one out of ten instances.
What does all this mean?
What it means is that pharmaceutical grade products sold for hair loss and hair re-growth may not produce very good results for the vast majority of those trying to reverse balding or thinning hair.
So where do I go from here?
Understanding the crux of the problem is perhaps the most important aspect in effectively treating the most common types of balding and thinning hair. This of course is male or female pattern balding and the root cause of these two similar conditions is the unwanted accumulation of the androgen hormone DHT (dihydrotestosterone) on tens of thousands of hair follicle located just below the scalp line.
