Hair Loss has been treated for centuries, with various forms of medications. However, as more is learned about how the body works, other methods of treating it have become available. Many years ago there was a hit new drug called Minoxidil. This was the first clinically proven drug to treat baldness in men and it did work. Unfortunately, it was very expensive and it was also dangerous to those who were taking it. People soon discovered that there were some unpleasant side effects, which came as a result of using this drug.

Today, Minoxidil is still being used to help people with hair loss problems. The active ingredient in this drug is Minoxidil, a chemical that acts like a dye. By applying it directly to the scalp, it encourages DHT production to reduce hair loss. The only side effects experienced are those of irritation and mild burning sensation.

Another form of medication being used to treat hair loss is Rogaine. Like Minoxidil, Rogaine too, is a drug that is applied directly to the scalp. However, the active ingredient in this drug is Minoxidil. Both of these drugs come in liquid, gels or creams that need to be applied directly to the scalp. It can take several applications before the medication begins to show results.

There is one other drug on the market that may be able to help you treat your hair loss problem. It is called Propecia. Like Minoxidil, Propecia is applied directly to the scalp. It also contains Minoxidil in the form of a concentrated pill. Like Minoxidil, the side effects experienced from Propecia include mild burning and irritation.

One of the newest medications being used to treat hair loss problems is Finasteride. It works by stopping a certain enzyme in the body from converting testosterone into DHT. As DHT is responsible for the thinning and shrinking of hair follicles, it is believed that eliminating this hormone would result in more hair growth. However, like Minoxidil, some people experience side effects when using Finasteride.

You may wonder how such a simple drug could have any type of side effect. The answer lies in the way that Finasteride works. It works by stopping the enzyme from making DHT. What is meant by this is that it does not actually stop hair from growing. What may happen is that if you are not careful, you may see a few tiny bald spots beginning to appear on your scalp. These may last a few months and will generally diminish after that time.

However, some people experience what is known as ‘scarring’ where their scalps become inflamed. This is a result of the DHT being turned into skin-damaging sulfur. If you notice any redness, swelling or pain while using the treatment, you should contact your doctor right away. He or she will be able to evaluate your hair loss problem and prescribe the appropriate medication so that you don’t suffer from serious side effects.

So, while the use of Menthol Therapy for treating hair loss problem is not yet approved by the FDA, many practitioners believe that it has helped a lot of men and women to re-grow hair. In fact, many of them are so proud of the results that they do not mind prescribing it to their clients. Just keep in mind that it is very important that you consult your doctor before trying any new medication or treatment.

You can try using Menthol to re-grow hair if you are still having a hair loss problem after a series of treatments. All you need to do is to add some drops of Menthol into your bath water. Take a shower and then dip your head in the water. Another effective way to use Menthol is by applying it on the area of your scalp that is noticeably losing your hair. It is known to stimulate hair growth naturally.

In addition, you can also make some other changes in your lifestyle so that you can prevent further hair fall. You should cut down on your daily consumption of tea and coffee as these contain caffeine. Caffeine has the ability to increase your body temperature, which in turn can cause hot flushes. It can also make you susceptible to infections and yeast infections.

You can also improve the condition of your scalp by adding more healthy herbs like saw palmetto and nettle. These herbs help in stimulating hair growth naturally. You can also get a lot of info on how to re-grow hair from the internet. There are blogs and websites that provide complete information about this subject. All you have to do is spend some time and efforts and you can definitely find information that can help you out with your hair loss problem.
