Male Pattern Baldness<\/a> can’t permanently be cured, but some medicines and treatments might slow it down.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n Continue reading to learn more about the medicines for Male Pattern Baldness<\/a>.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n Androgenetic alopecia<\/a> is a form of hair loss that affects both men and women.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n In men, this condition is known as Male-pattern baldness. Hair falls out in a distinct pattern, beginning above both temples.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n In women, Androgenetic alopecia is known as Female Pattern Baldness<\/a>.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n The hair loss pattern in women differs from that of men.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n Women’s hair thins all over the head, but the hairline does not recede. In women, Androgenetic alopecia<\/a> rarely results in total baldness.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n Genes, or a family history of baldness, is one cause of Male Pattern Baldness<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n It has been linked to male sex hormones known as Androgens. These sex hormones perform a variety of functions, including regulating hair growth.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n Each hair on your head goes through a growth cycle.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n With Male Pattern Baldness, this growth cycle weakens. The hair follicle miniaturizes, resulting in shorter and finer hair strands.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n The growth cycle of each hair ends, and no new hair grows in its place.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n Male Pattern Baldness is usually inherited.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n But, more severe causes of baldness include certain cancers, medications, thyroid conditions, and anabolic steroids.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n Consult your doctor if you experience hair loss after starting new medicines for the treatment of Male Pattern Baldness<\/a>.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n Pattern (hereditary) baldness can be treated with medications. The most common medicines are:<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n Minoxidil is a hair growth stimulator.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n It acts as a Vasodilator, widening the blood vessels inside the hair scalps. As a result, there is an increase in the blood flow to your hair follicles.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n Minoxidil for Male Pattern Baldness is available in liquid and shampoo forms.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n John Browning, MD<\/a>, a dermatologist with Texas Dermatology and Laser Specialists, recommends applying Minoxidil twice daily to a dry scalp.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n Dr. Browning is also a fellow of the American Academy of Dermatology.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n Many people prefer to use foam when their hair is wet.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n Minoxidil helps regrow hair, slow the rate of hair loss, or both.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n It might take at least six months of treatment to stop further hair loss and begin hair regrowth. It may take several months to determine whether the treatment is effective.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n If it’s working, you’ll need to keep taking it to reap the benefits.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n There may be irritation on the scalp and unwanted hair growth on the skin of the face and hands.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n Topical Minoxidil solution is one of the medicines for Male Pattern Baldness that is available over the counter.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n Your doctor may also give you Oral Minoxidil to help stop hair loss, but the FDA has not approved it.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nWhat is Male Pattern Baldness?<\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n
