Baldness Cures On The Internet. Should You Buy Them?
There are tens of millions or possibly even hundreds of millions of men in the US searching for a baldness cure. It is estimated that around 50 percent of men will suffer some form of balding and most of them will hate it. For this reason baldness cures, particularly on the Internet, are big business. But how do you go about finding a genuine cure for baldness?
Baldness cures of any type are not cheap. For this reason the market for hair loss treatments is worth hundreds of millions of dollars and where there is a market that size there will be many many products available. However that does not mean that they all work or even that they are all safe for anyone to use.
The Internet is pretty much unregulated and it’s very easy to put up a website selling cures for baldness. There is no requirement that anyone who does this demonstrate that their hair loss treatment does anything to reverse hair loss or even that it is safe to use. You have to beware of any cures for baldness on the net.
It’s very easy to get ripped off buying baldness cures on the Internet. Not only is there a fair chance they will not reverse your hair loss there is also a likelihood that they may be harmful to your health and to your wallet. Does this mean that you should forget about regrowing your hair?
Not at all. We have an organization whose job it is to regulate these things. The FDA has approved two products to use as men’s hair loss treatments. Both these products have been demonstrated to the satisfaction of the FDA to work to counter male balding, including in cases of male pattern baldness, because that causes over 90 percent of men’s balding.
It is fair to assume that where the FDA has approved a product as a men’s hair loss treatment that there is sufficient evidence, in the form of proper scientific studies, that these products work to reverse hair loss. However it is also true that these products will not work as a cure for baldness for every man suffering from male pattern balding. It is too much to expect any product to work for everybody.
The 2 FDA approved baldness cures for men are finasteride and minoxidil. Finasteride is marketed as Propecia and is not approved for use in cases of hair loss by women because it has been shown to have some serious side-effects for women who use it to reverse hair loss. Although it is approved for men it can also have some side-effects for men including loss of libido.
Minoxidil is approved for use as a hair loss treatment by both men and women. It is thought that it improves hair growth by improving the blood flow to the hair follicle thereby increasing the flow of nutrients to the follicle. In cases of male pattern baldness a hormone restricts the ability of hair follicles to absorb nutrients and so increasing the flow of nutrients would improve hair growth it would seem.
One company has seen a way to improve the results that you may expect. If minoxidil improves the flow of blood to the hair follicle to make more nutrients available, then if those nutrients are supplied in optimum quantities then this will maximize the chances of optimum hair regrowth.
This approach seems more effective than selling minoxidil for use on its own.
So if you’re looking for baldness cures on the Internet remember to beware. Whilst there are many cures for baldness available only 2 have been approved by the FDA as a hair loss treatment for men. Minoxidil is the only product approved as a male pattern baldness cure and also as a hair loss treatment for women.
On my website you can find out which company markets minoxidil combined with a range of essential hair nutrients to maximize the chances of successful regrowth of your hair.
