Preventing Hair Loss

Most of the human population consider hair loss as a social embarrassment. Occurrence of hair loss in mid twenties of either sex will definitely affect one’s self-confidence. There are various therapies available to prevent hair loss. Most people are having this question in their mind- How to prevent hair loss?
To prevent hair loss, an individual should select an appropriate treatment that will help him or her. Natural products and conventional drugs are readily available to prevent hair loss. Products like Rogaine and Propecia are used to prevent hair loss.
Nowadays the product Rogaine is used to prevent hair loss, but earlier it has been extensively used to treat high blood pressure. Do not use Rogaine if your scalp has been subject to irritation, or sunburn. Moreover don’t use Rogaine on any other part of the body except your head. To see positive results you will need to continue treatment for at least 3 months.
Propecia was used to treat prostates in its early days. Pregnant women should not take Propecia, because it may cause neonatal anomalies. In fact Propecia should not be taken by women at all! Propecia should be used continuously for three months to prevent hair loss. But this may have a side effect of lack of sex drive and impotency.
Hair Renew is the only product used to prevent hair loss specifically for women. Hair Renew provides three effects viz., nourishes the hair follicles, cleanses the scalp of debris and cleanses the scalp of dirt. Hair Renew neutralizes the DHT found in the scalp to prevent hair loss. The main effect of the DHT, produced from the hormone testosterone, is hair loss and baldness. In order to prevent hair loss, the level of DHT needs to be reduced. During puberty DHT is found in higher level, which is responsible for secondary sexual characteristics in human.
Other useful products to prevent hair loss are Follicare, Nisim, FNS (Follicle Nutrient System), Tricomin, Vitalizer, and Revivogen. Follicare is used to prevent hair loss especially in men. Follicare hair re-growth treatments can be achieved with Minoxidil or without Minoxidil. Nisim, Tricomin, and Revivogen are available in the forms of shampoo, sprays and conditioner to prevent hair loss. Tricomin supplies copper directly to the hair follicles to improve hair development. All these products are available separately for oily and dry hair. For best results you need to find out if your hair is dry or oily.
In order to prevent hair loss, select the appropriate drug that has a minimum of side effects. It is always better to consult your doctor before chosing a hair loss products on your own.
