Is There A Good Natural Hair Loss Treatment

Thursday, March 4th, 2010

Treating hair thinning in men and women is big business (millions of dollars a year) so it is no wonder that the big pharmaceutical companies try to convince us that their products are the only option when it comes to treatments. Like most other health issues we are taught that the only hope for re-growing hair is an expensive pill, but this is now being proven wrong. It turns out there is a great natural hair loss treatment that is gaining ground as the method of choice for thousands of men and women to treat hair loss caused by Androgenic alopecia. Androgenic alopecia is a genetic medical condition that is responsible for 95% of the early hair loss in men and near that level in women.

Big Pharma’s answer is a drug called Finasteride. This was originally developed as a treatment for enlarged prostate gland in men. During health trials it was shown to also treat androgenic alopecia which has the common name male pattern baldness. When you see a man with a receding hair line or a bald spot on his crown this is what he is suffering from. The Finasteride appears to block the production of DHT, a hormonal metabolite of the male hormone testosterone, which is responsible for prostate problems and apparently hair loss. The mechanism appears to be a bonding of the DHT on hair root receptors which cause the hair roots to stop producing hair shaft material. (more…)
