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 aren’t cheap and so the market for hair loss treatments is worth hundreds of millions of dollars or more. Where there is that much money at stake there will be many products to fill that demand. But that doesn’t mean that all of them work or even that they would be safe for you to use.
The Internet is pretty much unregulated and it’s very easy to put up a website selling cures for baldness. There is no requirement that anyone who does this demonstrate that their hair loss treatment does anything to reverse hair loss or even that it is safe to use. You have to beware of any cures for baldness on the net.
Baldness cures on the Internet can often be a scam and is unlikely that many of them will regrow your hair and even worse they may damage your health and your wallet. So maybe you should just forget about finding a good hair loss treatment.
No you need not forget about it at all. We have an organization in the US called the FDA whose task it is to examine products like these and, if it is satisfied that it is appropriate, to approve them for use. The FDA has approved 2 products as men’s baldness cures for cases of thinning hair in men including cases of male pattern baldness which causes over 90 percent of cases of male balding.
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.
The FDA has approved minoxidil and finasteride as men’s hair loss treatments. Finasteride is marketed as Propecia and is not approved for use in cases of women’s hair loss because it has been demonstrated to cause some serious side-effects for women. It can also have some side-effects for men including loss of libido.
Minoxidil is approved as a hair loss treatments for men and women and is the only product so approved. The current wisdom is that it works because it improves the flow of blood to hair follicles which increases the flow of nutrients so that the hair follicle can absorb more nutrition. In cases of male pattern baldness the actual hair thinning is caused by a male hormone which restricts the flow of nutrients to the hair follicle so this would seem to make 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 approach seems more effective than selling minoxidil for use on its own.
But you must be aware that despite the fact that there are dozens of baldness cures on the Internet, there are only 2 cures for baldness in men that are approved by the FDA and only one, minoxidil, is approved as a male pattern baldness cure as well as a cure for baldness in women.
