An overview of male pattern baldness drugs

Male pattern baldness is not a serious condition or a disease, but men who suffer from it often feel bad about their loss and can suffer from low self-esteem and low confidence. Baldness or hair loss can begin at any age in men. Sometimes men as early as in their twenties experience hair loss while sometimes some men have a thick mane of hair until their ripe old age. Today’s hectic and stressful lifestyle further adds to this problem.

If men start to lose hair at a young age, it affects them adversely. It not only makes them feel unattractive but it can also hamper their confidence and self-esteem. Some men feel that their fast approaching baldness is a sign of old age and can suddenly behave awkwardly. Men trying to find suitable partners find themselves at a loss. Some women can find baldness and receding hair unattractive and don’t choose to go out with men suffering from male pattern baldness. The most popular treatment for male pattern baldness is Propecia finasteride.

Does Propecia finasteride always work?
Propecia finasteride works in more than 80% of men who take it. It is the most successful treatment for male pattern baldness and comes in an easy-to-take pill. It is clinically tested and proven and because of this, most people choose to opt for Propecia. Most men who take Propecia finasteride witness no further hair loss and sometimes they even experience new hair growth.

Propecia finasteride is safe to consume and causes very few side effects. Some of the possible health concerns if you take Propecia are low sexual desire, temporary impotence and a low sperm count. If you are planning to have a baby, it is advisable to avoid Propecia for some time. Women should under no circumstances be exposed to Propecia, as it may cause certain health consequences.

Beauty is said to be skin deep. So goes with having a beautiful, healthy hair. Healthy hair is essentially ‘dead’ at its length, but is actually attached to a living, reproducing structure- the root, which is situated just below the surface of the scalp. Living cells within the root produce hair and, if not properly nourished, their ability to make hair is badly affected.

A variety of nutrients are needed to maintain a healthy, beautiful hair:

    Vitamin A. This is needed to enable cells to divide and replicate normally. A lack of Vitamin A can lead to dry hair and skin, while too much can cause inflammation of the follicle. Vitamin A is present in orange fruit and leafy vegetables, whole milk, margarine, and eggs.
    Minerals. Copper is needed for hair structure and can be found in milk, bread, and green vegetables. A lack of zinc can lead to hair loss. The richest source of zinc are oysters, peas, pulses, butter, and kidney.
    Vitamin C. Lack of Vitamin C can cause excessively dry skin and hair. Plenty of fruit and vegetables ensure a good supply.
    Vitamin B. Lack of Vitamin B can lead to oily hair conditions.
    B2. This is found in meat, poultry, milk, eggs, cereals, and rice.
    Niacin. Found in meat, bread, and potatoes.
    Pantothenic Acid. This helps keep the hair follicle in good condition. Egg yolks, peanuts, and wheat germ are good sources.
    Biotin. A severe lack of this can lead to hair loss. This can be found in nuts and pulses.
