The Good News And The Bad About Baldness Cures On The Internet.
There are tens of millions or possibly even hundreds of millions of men in the US searching for a baldness cure. It is estimated that around 50 percent of men will suffer some form of balding and most of them will hate it. For this reason baldness cures, particularly on the Internet, are big business. But how do you go about finding a genuine cure for baldness?
Baldness cures of any type are not cheap. For this reason the market for hair loss
There is very little regulation of the Internet and anyone can design a website to sell a cure for baldness without being required to show that it is safe or that it reverses hair loss. On the Internet it’s buyer beware.
It’s very easy to get ripped off buying baldness cures on the Internet. Not only is there a fair chance they will not reverse your hair loss there is also a likelihood that they may be harmful to your health and to your wallet. Does this mean that you should forget about regrowing your hair?
No, don’t forget about it at all. In the US there is an organization that is required to regulate products like this. The FDA is tasked with that job and has approved 2 products as men’s hair loss treatments. The FDA has satisfied itself that both these products work to treat of men’s baldness, including male pattern baldness which causes over 90 percent of thinning hair in men.
It is fair to assume that where the FDA has approved a product as a men’s hair loss treatment that there is sufficient evidence, in the form of proper scientific studies, that these products work to reverse hair loss. However it is also true that these products will not work as a cure for baldness for every man suffering from male pattern balding. It is too much to expect any product to work for everybody.
These 2 baldness cures are finasteride, marketed as Propecia, and minoxidil. Only minoxidil is approved to use as a baldness cure for women because finasteride has been shown to have serious side effects when used by women. Finasteride can also have some side effects when used as a hair loss treatment by men including loss of libido.
Minoxidil is the only hair loss product approved for use by men and women. It is thought to operate to restore hair growth by improving the blood flow to the hair follicle thereby improving the availability of nutrients to the follicle. As lack of nutrients is the reason why a hair dies in cases of male pattern baldness this makes complete sense.
Whilst minoxidil has been shown to work as a baldness cure on its own one company has taken this one step further and released a product that combines minoxidil with a range of essential hair nutrients. It would also make sense that more blood flow to the hair follicle that allows the follicle to absorb more nutrients would work better if all those nutrients were available in the blood.
This product seems to work more effectively than simply using minoxidil on its own.
So if you’re looking for baldness cures on the Internet remember to beware. Whilst there are many cures for baldness available only 2 have been approved by the FDA as a hair loss treatment for men. Minoxidil is the only product approved as a male pattern baldness cure and also as a hair loss treatment for women.
