When search on the google "how to stop hair loss", Minoxidil is a top result.
It won't ruin your sex life, and it's been around forever. Worth trying, right?Not really.
Before I completely take a crap on your plan, let me explain.
What Minoxidil really does is stimulate random hair growth.
Minoxidil, the generic name for Rogaine, is a drug originally created as a blood pressure
medication. When users started experiencing odd side effects
like hair sprouting out of their backs, cheeks, and heads, researchers decided to use minoxidil
for people dealing with hair loss.
It is odd how something developed for one purpose can also be used quite successfully
for another. One example is Teflon™ which was originally
used to protect components and fittings on military equipment during the Second World
War, but is today more commonly thought of as a non-stick coating for cookware.
The world of medicine has also found that many drugs developed for one use had unexpected
side effects which made them appropriate for other conditions.
Several drugs originally developed for heart disease and/or hypertension have been found
to be useful treatments for other conditions. These include Viagra, beta blockers (wchich
is a possible treatment for breast cancer) and Minoxidil – the most commonly used treatment
for hair loss. Minoxidil was first used to treat patients
with high blood pressure and was taken as a tablet.
However, patients taking it also started to grow unwanted hair.
The pharmaceutical company behind the original development of Minoxidil, to begin testing
it as a treatment for hair loss. It found that a topical application to the
scalp of a mild solution of Minoxidil could help to prevent hair loss and prompt hair
re-growth in some patients. The drug was the first to be approved by the
American Food and Drug Association (FDA) and is available as a non-prescription treatment
for hair loss and androgenetic alopecia. Minoxidil is recommended for both men and
women to treat hair loss. Even though it has been around for more than
20 years, the mechanism by which Minoxidil works as a hair loss treatment is still not
fully understood. One theory suggests that as it is a vasodilator
(that means it dilates blood vessels) Minoxidil may increase the blood supply to the hair
follicles, which may boost the supply of nutrients and encourage hair regrowth.
However, Minoxidil has also been found to affect the cellular activity of hair follicles
and rate of hair growth. This has led some researchers to theorise
that when Minoxidil is absorbed through the skin it brings about a marked increase in
DNA synthesis in hair follicle cells.
So, today I'm going to share some cons of minoxidil
No 1 .Routine Use Is Needed Rogaine works only as long as it's used diligently
and routinely. So if you choose this method to tackle hair
loss, there's no falling down on the job. Rogaine solution requires twice per day application,
although Rogaine foam is used only once per day.
It can be difficult to keep this up every day, as you probably will not notice any results
for at least 3 months in some extreme cases. Furthermore, hair loss sometimes initially
gets worse before beneficial effects occur. And if you stop using Rogaine, the effects
dissipate relatively quickly. Hair growth in the area ceases and any newly
formed hair may rapidly fall out. No 2.Not Effective for Everyone
Rogaine works best on certain individuals and that might not be you.
In men, the best results are obtained when the male-pattern hair loss has been present
for less than 5 years and the bald spot is less than 4 inches in size.
Additionally, Rogaine works most effectively for hair loss at the vertex of the head, which
is the circular area between the top and back of the head.
Rogaine produces minimal or no results when used in other areas.
No 3.Side Effects Can Occur The side effects you are most likely to develop
are local symptoms at the site of Rogaine application. Burning and stinging may occur.
Inflammation with redness or a rash may develop, which could be a type of mild allergic reaction
called contact dermatitis. Dandruff may also be noted.
Excessive hair growth in other areas -- called hypertrichosis -- is another possibility.
This may be localized to the face or extend to more distant parts of the body.
In a study published in the December 2011 issue of the "Journal of the American Academy
of Dermatology," hair growth in the sideburn area was reported in 11% of women using Rogaine
foam and 26% of those using Rogaine solution. Other possible side effects are headaches,
weight gain, decreased blood pressure and an increased heart rate or palpitations.
Put simply, minoxidil doesn't stop hair loss. It stimulates random hair growth, which for
some amount of time can cover for the amount of hair lost due to male pattern baldness.
Being it never got to the root of the problem, after some time, the amount of hair shed from
male pattern baldness can't be covered up by some extra hair growth, and it becomes
obvious that minoxidil isn't the miracle you were looking for.
To properly stop hair loss, you'll need to dig deep and stop it at the core i.e. do something
about the actual cause. The first step would be to block DHT on your
scalp, so as to keep the follicles alive. Step two would be to stimulate hair growth
after. By blocking DHT first, you will actively stop your hair loss, and you'll get the results
you were looking for
