How Can I stop Hair Loss?

 

• Q: I am a 34 year old man, and I think I am losing my hair. At first I thought it might just be a case of seasonal shedding, which is normal, I seem to be losing more hairs every day, and my hair looks and feels much thinner.  If I am losing my hair, then what can I do to stop it?

Answer: Losing hair happens to all of us, and as long as you are continually regrowing hair, it is perfectly normal to lose up to 100 hairs a day. Seasonal shedding is a normal process that nearly every man and woman will go through.

If you are experiencing severe thinning, then it is likely that you are not regrowing hair, which means the problem could be male pattern baldness.  There is not cure for any type if genetical baldness, but fear not, there are ways you can slow down the rate of hair fall with certain treatment plans.

The majority of men who suffer from baldness start to experience thinning in their 30s.  It is crucial you act as early as possible to try and halt the pattern of thinning, if you want to hold onto your hair for longer.  So, in answer to your question, here are a few ways you can stop hair loss...

See a specialist

Tackling hair loss is no easy task, and before you start trying out produce and treatments, it would be a good idea to see a specialist about your hair, just to confirm what type of hair loss you are suffering from.  Once you know for sure, you can then start a treatment plan that will be effective for your hair loss type.

Minoxidil 

If you are suffering from male pattern baldness then you should consider trying Minoxidil.  This is a topical foam that is medically approved as a treatment to regrow hair. If you would like to know more about Minoxidil then you may want to read Minoxidil For Hair Growth.

The only medically approved pill (for men) for treating baldness is Finasteride (Propecia), but this can come with many unwanted side-effects, so if, like many men, you want to avoid these harmful effects, you should consider trying multi-vitamin hair supplements.   Hair supplements are safe, and in many cases, effective.  Check out some of the best hair supplements on the market - Supplements For Treating Hair Loss.
