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?
There’s dozens if not hundreds of baldness cures on the Internet. Apart from minoxidil and finasteride none of them are approved by the FDA for use as a baldness treatment, and minoxidil is the only product approved by the FDA for use as a balding treatment by women.
It therefore follows that these are the only 2 products which have scientific evidence of their effectiveness as baldness treatments which is sufficient to convince the FDA of their effectiveness, and only one, minoxidil, has sufficient scientific evidence of it’s effectiveness for 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.
But whilst minoxidil is the only FDA approved treatment of thinning hair in both men and women, you do need to understand a few things about minoxidil use before you start using minoxidil to treat your baldness problem.
Obviously minoxidil works to reverse thinning hair or the FDA would not have approved it. But just because it is proven to work doesn’t mean that it works for everybody. Just as there are cancer treatments which are proven to work to treat cancer, they do not work for everybody, and it is not realistic to expect minoxidil to be any different. Do not expect that just because it works for others that it will also work for you, though of course there is a good chance that it will.
The second thing to understand is that if you are considering using minoxidil to treat your thinning hair then even if it works for you you need to give it sufficient time to start working. It is not sufficient to use minoxidil for 2 months and then decide that it’s a scam. You need to commit to 6 months use at a minimum and preferably 12 before you make any judgment about whether minoxidil works for you. It is too easy to decide that it’s not working and to discontinue minoxidil use too early.
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.
Clearly using minoxidil works to reverse thinning hair in men and women but this does not automatically mean that it will work for you. You need to have realistic expectations and need to be prepared to commit to a sufficient trial before making any decisions on how minoxidil is working to you. There is now a new product available which combines minoxidil with a range of essential hair nutrients increases the likelihood that it will work for you, however this also is not guaranteed to work for everybody.
