Castration and Hair Regrowth

November 30th, 2009 admin

From what I have read, castration stops hair loss however, castration will not regrow hair that has been lost. If this is true, why would Proscar grow any hair? It is my understanding Proscar blocks a percentage of DHT, which leads to the effectiveness of the product. If someone has been castrated there is o% DHT and still no hair regrowth? Also if DHT causes hair loss why is Propecia effective on the vertex of the scalp and not the temples. There is a wide … [ visit site to read more ]

Why Do Doctors Transplant the Swirl?
As the vertex eats up so many grafts, why do Dr.s try to transplant without the swirl and simply part the hair. The direction of the top could be forward and the lower half downward. I believe many men would give up the swirl for more coverage, is this possible? You are correct. The vertex (crown) ‘eats up’ many grafts. In other words,... 
Do You Think the Iron Supplement or Minoxidil Contributed to My Regrowth?
I’m a 24 year old male and have microcytic anemia (most likely) due to iron deficiency. I had been able to halt my MPB hair loss by taking finasteride (1mg) since age 18, however experienced rapid shedding about nine months ago.

(strip-harvesting): I understand, in this method, a strip is excised from the back of the scalp, the wound then closed. I wonder, then, is not the overall surface of the scalp reduced in this procedure? After two or three procedures, especially, (or...

I Can’t Find a Doctor to Prescribe Proscar Due to Liability Issues!
I am having trouble finding a doctor who will prescribe Proscar to treat my MBP. Every office I call turns me down based on “liability” issues (Including my Primary Care and other Dermatologists).
