Will Minoxidil Use Cure Your Baldness?
Those who know these things tell us that over 50 percent of men will experience some form of thinning hair during their lifetime. Most of these cases of baldness in men are caused by is what is known as male pattern baldness, the scientific name being androgenetic alopecia. The good news is that there are 2 products which the FDA has approved as baldness treatments for men and one of these products is called minoxidil. But does this mean that minoxidil use will reverse your baldness problem?
If you look on the internet you’ll find hundreds of baldness cures. But there are only 2, minoxidil and finasteride, that the FDA has approved for use by men to reverse thinning hair and for women minoxidil is the only treatment approved as a baldness treatment by the FDA.
Therefore it makes complete sense that there are only 2 products which are proven to work to reverse thinning hair in men, and only one of the these is proven to reverse thinning hair in women.
If any of the hundreds of other baldness cures advertised on the internet had sufficient scientific evidence behind it to prove to the satisfaction of the FDA that they work to reverse thinning hair you can bet the application would be made to the FDA as fast as possible. To get a baldness treatment successfully approved by the FDA could be likened to a licence to print money, and any company that was able to produce this evidence in support of their product would seek approval as fast as possible.
However despite the fact that using minoxidil is approved by the FDA for both men and women there’s a few things you need to know about using minoxidil before you start.
Clearly minoxidil use works to reverse thinning hair or it would not be approved. But that does not mean that it works for everybody. Just like so many other treatments for so many other health conditions, the results that you get from the treatment will vary from person to person. It is unrealistic to expect minoxidil or any other hair loss treatment to work for everybody, just as it is unrealistic to expect cancer treatments, which are proven to work, to work for everybody.
And secondly if you are considering using minoxidil you need to understand that even if it works for you the results take time to achieve and that you should be prepared to commit to using a product for at least 6 months, and preferably 12, before you can make a judgement about whether it is working for you. Otherwise you may find that you discontinue minoxidil use too early, and before it has started to work.
And finally you need to understand, before commencing minoxidil use, that if you have a successful result you need to continue using the product or the results will be lost. Your thinning hair will return over time if you discontinue minoxidil use.
Whilst minoxidil has been proven to work to reverse thinning hair in men and women, it has now been combined with a range of other essential hair nutrients to increase the chance that minoxidil will work for you. However you need to start using the product with realistic expectations.
