Going bald and losing hair has been a problem for men and women since the dawn of time. Today there is no sure-fire cure but there is a lot you can do, and a cure appears to be closer than ever!
We recommend all first time visitors who are unsure of what they want to do about their thinning hair to read our Beginner's Hair Loss Guide. We also recommend women with hairloss read our female hair loss section.
Treatments for thinning hair are better than ever. What is the best treatment? There are two FDA approved treatments for hairloss - Propecia and Rogaine. Propecia is a once a day oral pill which blocks the 5-alpha reductase enzyme that creates Dihydrotestosterone (DHT), the male hormone associated with thinning hair in men with male pattern baldness. Rogaine is a topical lotion available in a regular and extra strength version which stimulates hair growth in both men and women. Other treatments have been shown to be effective although not specifically FDA approved for hairloss including Avodart and Nizoral.
Today a skilled hair transplant doctor can provide extremely natural results. We recommend taking great care in choosing a surgeon and reading our helpful information prior to selecting a surgeon for your hair transplant.
Men's hair piece professionals are also offering lace-front real human hair pieces that are more natural, comfortable and affordable than ever. There are more hair replacement choices than ever in this area and being an informed consumer can help you to choose the options that are right for you.
If you haven't already, we urge you to join our community of men and women dealing with hairloss. Members are able to receive special updates regarding new treatments by e-mail and access to using site features such as posting in the discussion forums, voting in our polls and creating your own profile/blog.
