I һаνе done ѕοmе reading οח tһе subject, аחԁ аѕ a very early sufferer οf tһе adverse effects DHT һаѕ οח tһе male scalp аחԁ hair production, I wаѕ wondering wһу חο one һаѕ cured іt уеt. Wһаt іѕ іt аbουt DHT tһаt mаkеѕ іt ѕο difficult tο control? Wе һаνе conquered polio аחԁ smallpox, аחԁ חеw treatments аrе being discovered еνеrу day fοr tһе host οf maladies tһаt wе аѕ tһе human rасе mυѕt face. Bυt Male Pattern Baldness, one οf tһе mοѕt humiliating, albeit חοt life-threatening problems, іѕ still around, аחԁ perhaps more common (especially аmοחɡ young men) tһеח еνеr. Wһу һаѕ tһеrе bееח ѕο ƖіttƖе progress? Arе tһеrе аחу חеw treatments coming out wіtһ REAL promise, аחԁ חοt јυѕt a placebo effect?

I bet if it affected women they would have sorted it out by now.
Nobody seems interested in sorting out mens problems.

There are some supplements advertised that stop this. Your male body produces testosterone naturally. When your body uses this hormone it converts it into a by product called Di-Hydro(????)-testosterone (some strange name) or DHT. This is why one of the side effects of steroid use while using them is baldness. I have seen some GNC type stores offer supplements that will keep this conversion from happening. They are usually designed to counter act the side effects of anabolic steroid use. Please note that they are deemed safe (at least by their manufacturers) and are not anabolic in nature.

There are several forms of hair loss. If it is male pattern baldness (Androgenetic alopecia) then the hair loss cannot be fully cured in most cases, but just frozen for some time with the treatments availiable on market today. ( I’m hoping the new hair cloning technology will be availiable in the nearest future, because then the amount of donor hair will not be an issue anymore)
1) Hair transplant (FUE technology) creates really natural hairline, no scars, the best way to go if you have enough donor hair and money of course.
2. Propecia (Finasteride) and Minoxidil are the only ones approved by FDA and proven to work in most men so far.
Generic Propecia (finasteride) is also ok. I use it with same results, and unfortunately same side efefcts(a bit dry feeling in the scalp) as brand propecia. Have tried lots of herbal crap before it and laser combs, so far the only thing that prevents my hairloss, not much regrowth, but has stopped my hairloss completely.
I buy from this pharmacy for the last 2 years – http://www.1rx.biz/generic_propecia.html . It is under $1 per pill for 1mg propecia.

But before you consider to start propecia you must really study about the side effects. It can mess your hormones real bad if you are not lucky, so you must choose, hair or these side effects. Quite a big perecent have these side effects, more than Merck – the company that holds
Propecia trademark is saying. see the link for side effects stories http://www.propeciahelp.com
