Many men develop hair loss at some stage - this is called male pattern baldness. The condition is caused by a combination of hereditary (genetic) and hormonal factors. Some women develop a similar type of hereditary hair loss, which starts gradually, spreading from the crown of the head. This type of hair loss in women is more common after the menopause, and can be distressing. If you have a medical condition, or if you're not sure if minoxidil is suitable for you, speak to your pharmacist or GP before using it. But how to use Minoxidil? It’s a legitimate question, and, in this article, we’ll provide the answer. Causes of hair loss is multifactorial and can include things such as stress, hormonal changes, medications, genetics, and hair products that irritate the scalp, says dermatologist Peterson Pierre, MD. He notes that there is only one FDA-approved medical treatment for hair loss: topical minoxidil. Formulas that exfoliate the scalp can also be helpful, he says. Ingredients like saw palmetto and tea tree oil have antibacterial and healing properties that contribute to overall scalp health.

Of these, around 35% treated with Regaine for Men Extra Strength Scalp Solution 5% w/v Cutaneous Solution experienced dense or moderate regrowth compared with around 7% who received vehicle alone. In addition 30% of patients who received Regaine for Men Extra Strength Scalp Solution 5% w/v Cutaneous Solution were adjudged to have no change between the photographic assessments of hair growth compared with 60% who received vehicle alone.
