A Guide to the Best Hair Loss Treatments

While it's consider a normal condition for everyone to lose some small amounts of hair throughout their lives, sometimes hair loss can be considerably excessive. There are many different reasons why you may be experiencing hair loss. Stress, fatigue, malnutrition, hormonal imbalances, certain medications, and genetics are all potential factors that can cause excessive hair loss or even baldness. The good news is that there are lots of treatment options available. Here are some of the best hair loss treatments and how they can help you:

Rogaine

You've probably heard of Rogaine. After all, it is one of the most popular treatments for hair loss and can be purchased over the counter. Rogaine contains Minoxidil, an ingredient that shows great promise for treating hair loss. This product is a topical lotion that is applied directly to the scalp. It comes in both Regular and Extra Strength forms, and is designed for use by both men and women. Treatment with Rogaine costs about $29 per month, depending on where you purchase it. You'll find this product widely available at most any drugstore or pharmacy, in the hair care aisle.

Propecia

Propecia is a treatment for male-pattern baldness that's been approved for use by the FDA. This product is taken orally, and works to treat male baldness both on top of the head and at the middle front region of the head. Propecia is designed for men only, and should never be taken by women or children. This treatment is available only by prescription, so you'll need to see your doctor if you're interested in trying it.

Procerin

Procerin is another treatment option for male baldness and is available without a prescription. This remedy uses both an orally administered pill and a topical serum that work together to treat androgenetic alopecia, thought to be the most common cause of baldness in men. This product is available over the counter because it contains all natural ingredients. If you're concerned about using prescription medication to treat your baldness, then definitely give Procerin a look.

Revivogen

Revivogen is another over the counter remedy that works to treat hair loss in both men and women. This product is a topical solution that contains all natural ingredients with no known negative side effects. If you're seeking a treatment option for males and females alike that can be obtained without a prescription, Revivogen might be just the thing.

The above choices represent just a few of the best hair loss treatments on the market today. If you feel that your hair loss is excessive or due to a medical problem, it's a good idea to see your doctor. Regardless of which treatment option you choose, the best way to treat hair loss and baldness is under the supervision of an experienced medical professional.
