Propecia and treatment of Alopecia
Monday, October 29th, 2007Baldness (alopecia), or severe hair loss, is much more common in men than in women. Hair loss can result from genetic factors, aging, local skin conditions, and diseases that affect the body generally (systemic diseases). Some medications, such as those used to treat cancer, also cause hair loss. Perhaps a poor diet with lots of junk food over a period of years and decades is involved in hair loss but scientists still don’t have a good understanding regarding the relationship of food and hair loss.
Standard Hair loss treatment
Most types of hair loss have no cure. A person with male-pattern or female-pattern baldness may undergo hair transplantation, in which hair follicles are removed from one part of the body and transplanted. Some medications or hair loss products, such as topical minoxidil, may promote hair growth in a small percentage of people. The oral drug finasteride may also promote hair growth. Finasteride is available as the product name Propecia 1 mg, or as Proscar 5 mg (used for enlarged prostate). It is cheaper to buy Proscar 5 mg and bite off about a fifth a day instead of buying Propecia since Proscar is only slightly more expensive than Propecia but it has 5 times as much finasteride.
Minoxidil, used topically may also be helpful at minoxidil 2% for women and minoxidil 5% for men.Buy Propecia Finasteride now at cheapest prices.
Natural Hair Loss Remedy — may be helpful for healthy hair growth
The role of diet in hair loss is not well understood, but it is possible that a diet with lots of junk food could promote inflammation and be harmful to hair growth, whereas a very healthy diet, over many years, may reduce hair loss. I’m not sure whether eating soy products, lots of vegetables, fish or taking fish oil capsules would help slow down hair loss. Perhaps they may since they thin the blood and improve circulation(order propecia finasteride) . I’m not aware of a hair loss vitamin that would be useful since most Americans are not severely deficient in any particular vitamin.
