There are tens of millions or possibly even hundreds of millions of men in the US searching for a baldness cure. It is estimated that around 50 percent of men will suffer some form of balding and most of them will hate it. For this reason baldness cures, particularly on the Internet, are big business. But how do you go about finding a genuine cure for baldness?

Baldness cures aren’t cheap and so the market for hair loss treatments is worth hundreds of millions of dollars or more. Where there is that much money at stake there will be many products to fill that demand. But that doesn’t mean that all of them work or even that they would be safe for you to use.

The Internet is unregulated. Anyone can design a website and sell a hair loss treatment without any requirement that it be demonstrated to work or that it be demonstrated to be safe to use. On the internet it’s a serious case of buyer beware.

It’s very easy to get ripped off buying baldness cures on the Internet. Not only is there a fair chance they will not reverse your hair loss there is also a likelihood that they may be harmful to your health and to your wallet. Does this mean that you should forget about regrowing your hair?

No, don’t forget about it at all. In the US there is an organization that is required to regulate products like this. The FDA is tasked with that job and has approved 2 products as men’s hair loss treatments. The FDA has satisfied itself that both these products work to treat of men’s baldness, including male pattern baldness which causes over 90 percent of thinning hair in men.

We can fairly assume that if the FDA is satisfied that these products work as baldness cures there is sufficient evidence that this is the case. In fact there are scientific studies demonstrating that these products work as a cure for baldness. Whilst that may be the case they will not work for everybody and no product works as a baldness cure for everybody.

The FDA has approved minoxidil and finasteride as men’s hair loss treatments. Finasteride is marketed as Propecia and is not approved for use in cases of women’s hair loss because it has been demonstrated to cause some serious side-effects for women. It can also have some side-effects for men including loss of libido.

Minoxidil is approved as a hair loss treatments for men and women and is the only product so approved. The current wisdom is that it works because it improves the flow of blood to hair follicles which increases the flow of nutrients so that the hair follicle can absorb more nutrition. In cases of male pattern baldness the actual hair thinning is caused by a male hormone which restricts the flow of nutrients to the hair follicle so this would seem to make sense.

Whilst minoxidil has been shown to work as a baldness cure on its own one company has taken this one step further and released a product that combines minoxidil with a range of essential hair nutrients. It would also make sense that more blood flow to the hair follicle that allows the follicle to absorb more nutrients would work better if all those nutrients were available in the blood.

This product seems to work more effectively than simply using minoxidil on its own.

But you must be aware that despite the fact that there are dozens of baldness cures on the Internet, there are only 2 cures for baldness in men that are approved by the FDA and only one, minoxidil, is approved as a male pattern baldness cure as well as a cure for baldness in women.
