what really stops male hair loss? - help

[algreen123]

hi everyone, i have a gorgeous hubby, well he is to me and too many other women now i think about it! but i have been trying for years to get him to take one of the drugs that supposedly stop or reduce hair loss but he's such a dude he doesnt think its manly to try to prevent hair loss (he's a neandrethal actually) but recently probably due to less and less hair he is more receptive to the idea but i will only have one chance at him taking something so i want to try and find out what really works. im a woman and i suffered hair loss from medical treatment and i had great success after taking "pureclinica tricolopure dual strength +" for a few months and now take it religiously as my hair has never been this good. i dont know if they do a mens equivalent but i will check it out and post again in case anyone wants to know about it. i did buy him the regaine foam stuff from tesco's but got home and realised that he was to old (over 49) to use it, so that really didnt help things. so i suppose im asking what you men would rate as the best and what works, particularily if it can be taken as a pill as ive less hope of him spending time with foam or treatments that you would have to leave in, although if it works i can be quite a bully. as i have researched this there now seems to be so many claiming that they all stop or reduce male hair loss, but if something has or is working well for you i would be very grateful if you would let me know its name because i know he will regret it if he doesnt try something and then its maybe to late. thank you all very much for listening and best of luck with your search. x

A Dude Neanderthal you say?? "he doesn't think its manly to try to prevent hair loss" LOL!!! Sounds like me and your Hubby have a lot in common. I had hair like Robert Plant/Slash Hibernation for decades (down to my waist when wet) and now I have this crazy David Crosby - Einstein-Esque hair thing going on HA!...it's still fairly long past my shoulders, but I look like a friggin' maniac. LOL!! (well,then again,I always have) I don't care and like your Husband I have no problems with the Ladies do too Hair-Issues. I'm like him: IDGAS....It's how you carry yourself as well and being confident and Cocky.

But, good question...I would''t mind having the incredibly thick Plant hair again and if not no worries

hi @Artificial Deceased, well you sound fabulicious dude, i think im a little bit in love (be afraid, be very afraid lol!) - maybe my dude might have more to worry about than a receding hairline after all. i tell you though im female and one of those girly girl types and even though im in my forty's (but will only admit to 38) but if i had ever had hair as gorgeous as plant's hair i would have overdosed on every hair loss drug/treatment to hold on to it for dear life. its not fair men always have way better long (thick) hair than women. i doubt somehow that even though you say you have einstein hair now that even if you do thats about all thats einstein about you and come on if you say you look like a friggin maniac i would bet its uber cool maniac, so no false modesty, you sound like my kind of man and many other women's too, me thinks you have no problems at all in that area. yeah its true confidence beats a great head of hair any day but i dont think your cocky or else your funny cocky. me thinks you are a very chilled out guy, sorry dude, who's great to know with a first class personality and sense of humour plus the ability to ( decipher this) "women's off laugh panties" (im gonna get in trouble) so it does sound like you have a lot in common with my old man so now im re - thinking him keeping hold of his hair, just so he can run of with a 20 year old fox with my help, hmmm am i that dumb?. i will post any feedback i get on hair loss treatments, just in case you might want to read it -but no pressure at all.
thanks for belly laugh from great post, you sound adorable. feel free to do it to me again anytime (definatley gonna get in trouble).
so take care of you and your hair but more important your banging personality.
bye for now. x
ps - love your end quote.

Here's my 2 cents. Some guys go bald. If you are one of those guys please wear a ball cap, or use a hair product that has sunscreen in it. Nothing worse than age spots on one's head.

Did you guys already chat about propecia and rogaine? Personally, I don't think it's worth fighting mother nature. But do use the sunscreen. You will be glad when you (the men who go bald) are getting looks from the lady for your unspotted head.

Oh good to call out the fakers IMO.

[algreen123]

hi @ucme, i hope you got my private message. so by your saying that im not real, a liar and not being myself and am also hurting your friend is not trying to start a fight - get real, i would hate so see you when you are trying to start a fight!. yes and ha ha ha i was the man trying to source ed meds because my husband would never have posted and asked for help, ever! and yes its lying saying that your a man to do that but i dont think its a whopper or makes me a true liar considering that the topic is a bit sensitive and yes i did think that i would get taken more seriously and maybe get more help and feedback from the male people on the site as a man. i dont feel that the subject of hair loss is nearly as sensitive and i consider myself plenty woman enough to do anything i can for my husband and our relationship because i love him. so as soon as you send me the details to send you what proof i can that im a woman youll get it. i also promise to never bother or hurt your friend again. im thinking that you are probably what is it "laughing your ass off" by now at getting me so upset, so well done youve made someone feel hurt and upset. to date ive only ever come across decent, kind and trustworthy people on this site who only want to help others which are the people i value and want to know and be like. so im dammed upset that you would say im not a woman, not real and a liar - count on it. so i hope that you got the kick and the laugh you needed by getting me this wound up and hurt and that it made your day. im going to shut up now before i say something im gonna regret but thanks for making me feel like dirt ucme well done to you, your a real man (obviously).

Ummm...what an interesting series of posts. I was just going to say that I had the beginnings of typical male pattern baldness when I was in my early 30s. Cut gluten out and this halted it. Don't know about reversing the baldness, but my mini-bald spot has not gotten worse for over five years. Thought about using some of the usual suspects to thicken the hair there but a cursory glance at the possible side effects scared me off. Better than stalling the baldness was the weight loss. Quite remarkable what happens when you quit bread.

[Itzjustme]

Wow! Well I just read all your pms @algreen123 & yes I accept your apology : ) IIm just now reading your post. Im glad you have calmed down.You gotta admit, it did look like you were a dude! Honestly all you had to do is let me know I & the other 1 were wrong,explain the ed thing & thats cool.
It really wasnt as harsh as you took it. Youve called me a man in my pm & in your post & I havent got mad not once!
No worries : ) @Algreen is a female & if any1 can help with her husband balding,please do : )
Srry for all the OT posts.

Amazing how text on a screen can be so easily misunderstood eh Glad to see everyones patching things up... On topic.. I suffer from male pattern baldness as well.. Have never bothered trying the rogain or hairloss stuff it runs in my family.. So fitted caps is what i wear or just keep my hair really short and no one noticed.. Ok thats a lie everyone noticed and makess fun of me for it.. but i dont care.. Its just hair.. my self esteem has taken worse shots then hair loss lol

Well now that that's cleared up lol, I recently received a nursing magazine which included an article on hair loss. Evidently there is a new product on
the market, it's the first FDA cleared medical device to treat hair loss in men and women, called a laser comb. Evidently the laser pulses stimulate
hair follicle growth. Per the article 90% of men and women in the clinical study experienced hair growth in 16 weeks. It can be purchased with out
a doctors script, it is pricey however, approx $400.00. You use it 3 times a week for the first 16 weeks then maintain with 1 to 2 time a week
for continued hair growth. As with most technology, I'm sure it will be refined and most likelywill see a price reduction in the future.

I have no idea as I don't know anyone who has used it, but it did get FDA clearance and clinical studies to back it up. Sounds promising @TripleP, but as with all new
technology, only time will tell.
