tblake05 Posted July 15, 2022 Share Posted July 15, 2022 I’m full time in the auto industry and own 24 vending machines. 35 years old and my hair is falling out fast. No lies and not a joke post. Has anyone ever had any good luck with any OTC treatments? I hadn’t thought about it but my last haircut the stylist ( kinda cute) said something. Ugh. She said the shampoos are worth a shot even if they let me keep what’s still left. I suppose she’s right. There’s so many out there and it’s all $$$. Just curious if anyone has tried any and the results. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Mage Posted July 15, 2022 Share Posted July 15, 2022 Hair falls out as a result of dihydrotestosterone. (DHT) Minoxidil (Rogaine) might help at least slow down the process, but you would really need a DHT blocker to possibly stop it, specifically finasteride, last I knew. It's the drug for Propecia and Proscar. DHT is important for the development of the penis in a male fetus, but in adult males it attacks the prostate and the hair. The problem is once a hair dies at the root, it doesn't come back. (I am not a doctor, don't take medical advice from me.) I haven't needed any of this since I got my fathers genes, and he died in his 70s with a full head of hair that was just starting to turn grey.
