Will There Be A Better Medication for Regrowth by 2010?
Hi Dr. Rassman i recently wrote you about the 19 year old who thought he was a good canidate for a hair transplant. It’s not that I am going to plunge into it i was just wanting more advice. Furthermore i know you have probably had to answer this a million times and your sick of it but like do you think by 2010 that there will be atleast a better medication for regrowth? I honestly can’t go through my life being bald its affecting me so much man. all my confidence is gone. if you could , could you just respond to me in email ? im honestly so bummed out about this ordeal ive went from being so happy to depressed.
I don’t know what advice I can give. I don’t see the average 19 year old as a hair transplant candidate. If the hair loss has advanced to a place where it is stable and further loss isn’t likely to occur, a hair transplant may be a viable option, but without an exam I couldn’t begin to make that determination. Please note that very few 19 year olds would fall into this category.
There is a medication that is in FDA trials for treating hair loss, dutasteride (Avodart), and it has been shown to work better than Propecia (finasteride) in some cases at high doses, but with that comes much greater risk of sexual side effects and possible permanent sterility. It is still in the testing phase, however. You can learn more about dutasteride here — Update on Dutasteride. Note that there is no cure for hair loss.
I understand your confidence issues, and suggest that you may want to seek some help for any depression you may be experiencing.
hey man,
i just wanted to say, that i was/ am in your boat! i got the curse, as bad as it comes. my entire top is thinned like crazy, it all took place in less than two years. i believe i only have a good 6 months left, then i guess i will have to shave, even though i look too young.
I have good news though!
the shock of the hair loss at first is unbearable, and for me, did cause depression. its all i thought about. however, i promise that over time you will accept it, and see hair loss in a whole new light. it will not affect your life at all. its like the buddhists say, its not the event that causes us destress, its how we interpet the event. At some point you will have to just start living your life and regain your confidence, and know that if you truly dont like it, it a few years you WILL be a hair transplant candidate, furthermore, maybe by the time you’re 30 you can have have a full head of hair due to the future advancements in the industry, my guess is stem cells! hairloss is not a serious diagnosis, i have a friend who would do anyhting to change his recent diagnosis, of paralisis, for my silly alopecia. regain true perspective and remember everyones got something they feel holds them back, maybe weight, or something else, dont let this one hold you back!
There should be a breakthru in hair growth. but right now exercising taking biotin sawpalmento dht blocker as well as activite vitamines everymorning and taking spectural dnc hair growth drops which is a great bottle because it has not just minoxidil 5% but it has 5 other ingredients. maintain emu oli as well which comes from and emu bird. helps with hair growth moister as well as other parts of acne pain arthritus and many many more even skin stretch scars and more. but 1 more month we will be in the year 2010 and we need something fast to grow hair we need to get the stem cell to reproduce the cells in our bodies to regain our youth. lets stop ageing now. and cure dieases
This will help your hair grow and you will see it within the 4th week to the second coming of the month. Take Biotin 3 tims per day morning afternoon and before bed. take msm if your working out because your body goes thru stress and we all face stress but it helps with hair and the reparing of the body, Im not done yet this is all about hard work that will pay off. green apples of the skin eat it because it\’s good for you and it has 300% hair growth. DHT is the cause of hair loss plus genetics. remember genetics is breakable. believe in what is true and what can be fixed because remember we live in a universe full of answers blaming the government because remember everything is about money. always remember anything and anything is impossible. ok now back to what i was saying so we have Biotin – DHT Blocker which the cause of hair loss, thats caused by testoserone choking the hairs and diminishing it. take those and take DNC spectural and the shampoo DNC rev. I am not joking I am eating well and eating chicken fish milk and those are good for hair. say bye bye to meat and hamburgers. bad for the ammune system if you do have it you can have 1 time per month. sorry people but im warning you its not healthy. Good Luck~
