with either Androgenetic Alopecia, Telogen Effluvium, or Alopecia Areata.

By age fifty, 50% of women will have
to cope with hair loss. For many, medications provide a reliable
solution. But what about women who don't benefit from medication?
Our panel of experts discuss current and future non-medical options,
from styling tips to surgery to cloning technology.
What we're here to do is lead you down the straight and narrow. Despite
the myriad's of snake oils out there claiming otherwise, there are only
a few treatments that actually help with hair loss in both men and women.
We have categorized them below by the most important categorizations:
FDA Approved proven treatments, and Other Effective Treatments. If you
don't see the product listed here, it has not made enough of a stir to
warrant being mentioned, and thus is not worth your time.

It is extremely important that you first diagnose the
cause of your hair loss before trying any of the above treatments.
What may be helpful for one form of women's hair loss may do nothing
for your form of hair loss. For instance, Revivogen is listed as a
helpful treatment, however Revivogen is a topical DHT inhibitor and
will not help conditions caused by thyroid imbalances or Alopecia
Areata. Alopecia Areata typically requires a growth stimulant like
Rogaine, versus a DHT inhibitor like Revivogen.
