Most of the human population consider hair loss as a social embarrassment. Occurrence of hair loss in mid twenties of either sex will definitely affect one's self-confidence. There are various therapies available to prevent hair loss. Most people are having this question in their mind- How to prevent hair loss?

To prevent hair loss, an individual should select an appropriate treatment that will help him or her. Natural products and conventional drugs are readily available to prevent hair loss. Products like Rogaine and Propecia are used to prevent hair loss.

Nowadays the product Rogaine is used to prevent hair loss, but earlier it has been extensively used to treat high blood pressure. Do not use Rogaine if your scalp has been subject to irritation, or sunburn. Moreover don't use Rogaine on any other part of the body except your head. To see positive results you will need to continue treatment for at least 3 months.

Propecia was used to treat prostates in its early days. Pregnant women should not take Propecia, because it may cause neonatal anomalies. In fact Propecia should not be taken by women at all! Propecia should be used continuously for three months to prevent hair loss. But this may have a side effect of lack of sex drive and impotency.

Hair Renew is the only product used to prevent hair loss specifically for women. Hair Renew provides three effects viz., nourishes the hair follicles, cleanses the scalp of debris and cleanses the scalp of dirt. Hair Renew neutralizes the DHT found in the scalp to prevent hair loss. The main effect of the DHT, produced from the hormone testosterone, is hair loss and baldness. In order to prevent hair loss, the level of DHT needs to be reduced. During puberty DHT is found in higher level, which is responsible for secondary sexual characteristics in human.

Other useful products to prevent hair loss are Follicare, Nisim, FNS (Follicle Nutrient System), Tricomin, Vitalizer, and Revivogen. Follicare is used to prevent hair loss especially in men. Follicare hair re-growth treatments can be achieved with Minoxidil or without Minoxidil. Nisim, Tricomin, and Revivogen are available in the forms of shampoo, sprays and conditioner to prevent hair loss. Tricomin supplies copper directly to the hair follicles to improve hair development. All these products are available separately for oily and dry hair. For best results you need to find out if your hair is dry or oily.

In order to prevent hair loss, select the appropriate drug that has a minimum of side effects. It is always better to consult your doctor before chosing a hair loss products on your own.

A Quick Note From The Publisher... If you like the article above, you may be interested in the following article which is also related to Hair Loss... Cause of Hair Loss - Which One Do You Suffer From? Genetic and hormones are the main culprits of hair loss. One leading form of hereditary hair loss in men and women is Androgenetic Alopecia (otherwise known as pattern baldness), which is responsible for 95% of hair loss. Androgenetic Alopecia is characterized by receding hairline and thinning from the crown of the head in the shape of a horseshoe. With Androgenetic Alopecia hair loss is caused by an increase in testosterone, which leads to too much dihydrotestosterone (DHT), a derivative of testosterone. DHT can cause the blood supply that feeds the hair to become damaged, and it can eventually thin the hair follicle, causing hair to grow out thinner and shorter, until the follicle withers away. Furthermore, the body's immune system senses the follicle is dying, and as part of its defense system tries further to shut it down and get rid of it. Other lesser causes include immune system disorder which leads to Alopecia Areata. This condition causes patches of hair loss on the head and sometimes over the body. Another condition is a stress or trauma-induced hair loss called Telogen Effluvium where hair growth slows, or hair thins or sheds over a period of time. Fortunately this shedding is natural, such as after childbirth, and is temporary and reversible. Other temporary hair loss causes include lack of nutrition to the hair, lack of circulation to the hair root, scalp infection, or medical treatments/ conditions. Furthermore, product buildup on the hair root, and deep dirt on the hair root, when mixed with sebum, oxidizes into a thick hardened substance on the scalp, which then clogs the entrance of the hair follicle and blocks nutrient absorption by the follicle. The new strand of hair has to fight through the clogged follicle, resulting in a thinner hair strand...
