The answer by Abishek above is accurate. \n\nMy answer is just an opinion, no offense meant. \n\nTake it down low, man. Just shave your head, you'll be surprised how many women enjoy the freshly shaved head, and you'll save yourself a ton of money. Nobody is fooled by the hair plugs. \n\nMale pattern baldness has been considered a sign of virility in some cultures. This has some scientific validity, since it is caused by DHT (Dihydroxy testosterone), which actually binds more tightly to testosterone receptors than testosterone.\n\nNot convinced? Think Bruce Willis before and after he decided to shave his head...just something to think about, before you start spending alot of money on hair.\n\nDon't take any of that too seriously.

I have heard that Rogaine can help with hair loss (balding).  You can get it at any pharmacy in the shampoo aisle.  Good Luck.  If it doesn't work for you, remember a little hair loss is nothing compared to having a heart transplant.

I would stay away from Rogaine type medicines.  I don't want to take anything that women shouldn't even touch, personally.  Ginkgo biloba improves circulation to the scalp.  Horsetail can help strengthen your hair.  Green tea and Saw Palmetto may help prevent further hair loss.  Tea tree oil can help kill mites, bacteria and fungi that can live on the scalp and cause hair loss.  Apple cider vinegar and sage tea as a rinse can help hair grow.  Biotin supplementation can help hair grow.  Read all the lables for these products and consult a physician if you have any health concerns before taking these products.\n\nJust remember, many women find baldness very sexy.  So maybe shaving your head would be the easiest solution.

There are different types pf hair fall.The one that most of the males are concerned is the male pattern baldness and is related to the sensitivity of the hair follicles to the androgen.There are numerous treatment for this androgen male pattern baldness \n1) Minoxidil-It is increased the blood supply to the hair follilce and also increases hair growth.\n2) Finasteride-It is androgen receptor blocker that blocks the action of androgen and thereby reduce hair fall and subsequently increases hair growth.But one needs to consult physician before using oral drugs as it can have side effects like decreased sexual drive etc.\n3) Hair transplantation is another procedure that can be used for hair fall.It can give varying results to different people.But the hair that is transplanted is supposed to be permanent.

The best thing you can do is face the fact you are balding.\n\nThere is nothing (aside from a hair transplant) you can take or do about it.\n\nBe happy with the look you have, and everyone else will be too.

Try this product called Nioxin, I found mine at a salon in the mall. My boyfriend was stressed and loss a patch of hair and he used this product and it took no time for it to grow back.  Good Luck.

There's no real permanent cure unfortunately.\nThe only solution if it bothers you that much is to keep a clean shaven face... or even go as extreme as bleaching your hair on your head lighter... Blonde perhaps. The your grey won't be so predominant.

Male pattern baldness, also known by its uglier and scarier clinical name androgenetic alopecia , is caused by some really funky chemistry on your scalp. It starts with testosterone, the male sex hormone. Harmless on its own, testosterone gets converted to the dicey dihydrotestosterone (DHT) when in contact with oil glands in the hair follicles. These glands hold the enzyme Type II 5-alpha reductase.  DHT, in turn, gets in your scalp follicles and shrinks them. At the same time, it makes the protective membrane of the scalp thicken, restricting blood flow to the capillaries. This makes further hair growth impossible. The hairs fall out at a natural rate, but aren't replaced. And that's it in a nutshell. \n\nPRODUCTS:\nFinasteride (Propecia)\nFinasteride, produced by Merck and Company under the name Propecia, was approved by the FDA in December 1997, as a treatment for male pattern baldness. It is the first drug available in pill form for the treatment of baldness.\nIn men with mild to moderate hair loss, clinical trials showed that 83 percent of the male patients had kept their hair or grown more after one year of treatment. Propecia (finasteride) works by blocking an enzyme called 5-alpha reductase, which is responsible for the formation of dihydro-testosterone in a man's body. The enzyme converts testosterone to DHT (dihydrotestosterone). It is believed that DHT is a key factor in male pattern hair loss, and finasteride decreases the concentration of DHT in a man's scalp by about two-thirds.\n\nminoxidil (Rogaine):\nMinoxidil, a drug produced by Upjohn under the name of Rogaine, has been available since 1988 for the treatment of hair loss. It is currently available as an over-the-counter drug. \nMinoxidil is topical solution that must be applied by applicator or fingers to the balding area twice a day, every day. Decreasing the dosage to once a day results in some hair loss, and discontinuing application causes regression to pretreatment baldness within 3 to 6 weeks. It can take 4 to 12 months to see results.\nAccording to the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), clinical studies show that 26 percent of men between 18 and 49 reported moderate to dense hair regrowth after four months of Rogaine treatment. An additional 33 percent had minimal hair regrowth. Almost 20 percent of women between 18 and 45 had moderate regrowth, while an additional 40 percent showed minimal regrowth.\n\n\nSurgical hair replacement:\nWhen experiencing thinning hair or baldness, men (and some women) consider hair transplantation, a permanent form of hair replacement. Anyone who has permanent hair loss may be a candidate for hair transplantation, including:\nmen with male pattern baldness \nsome women with thinning hair \npersons who have lost hair as a result of burns or other scarring injuries to the scalp, eyebrows, or eyelashes.\n\nTypes of hair replacement surgery:\nThere are a number of techniques used in hair replacement surgery. Sometimes two or more techniques are used to achieve the best results.\npunch grafts - usually contain about 10-15 hairs \nmini-grafts - contain about 2 to 4 hairs \nmicro-grafts - contain 1 to 2 hairs \nslit grafts - contain about 4 to10 hairs each \nstrip grafts - contain 30-40 hairs\n\n\nGood luck!

This is a good site on hair, despite a few popups:\n\nhttp://www.keratin.com/\n\nRead especially the sections on hair biology, and androgenetic alopecia.\n\nThere are a few treatments for this baldness, but I agree that it is no big deal, to most people; women are not going to reject a man, just because he is balding!  It so common among men!!!

If you are certain that you are experiencing only male pattern baldness, and that the hair loss is not a symptom of a more serious problem, then you can stop the progression by using either 1. Minoxidil (Rogaine) : a solution that you apply directly to the scalp to stimulate the hair follicles. It slows hair loss for many men, and some men grow new hair. The previous degree of hair loss returns when you stop applying the solution, or 2.Finasteride (Propecia, Proscar) -- a prescription pill that inhibits the production of the male hormone dihydrotestosterone. Like minoxidil, you are more likely to have slower hair loss than actual new hair growth. In general, it is somewhat more effective than minoxidil. The previous degree of hair loss returns when you stop taking the drug. Good luck !

Normal Hair Loss\nThere are a number of reasons why men start to go bald, but if you are a man between the ages of about 20 to 45 and you start to lose scalp hair, then the chances are 95 per cent certain that you are experiencing male pattern baldness. As the term suggests, male pattern baldness follows a typical sequence or pattern. \n\nSponsored Links\nHair Loss Chart\nRanking of the top hair loss products for 2006!\nwww.Hair-Loss-Report.com\n\nTips for Fixing Hair Loss\nSee how I did it. 92% success.

Initial thinning of hair progresses over a number of years and may lead to total baldness but more typically loss of hair over the top surface of the head.\nThe Cause of Male Pattern Baldness\nMost men are genetically predisposed to male pattern baldness. It is the effect of hormones on the hair follicle that produces male pattern baldness. Testosterone, a hormone that is present in high levels in males after puberty, is converted to dihydrotestosterone (DHT) by an enzyme called 5-alpha reductase. DHT has an adverse affect on the hair follicles. Acting on a hormone receptor on the hair follicle it slows down hair production and produces weak, shorter hair, sometimes it stops hair growth from the follicle completely. This process gradually depletes your stock of hair and is normal hair loss.\n\nHair loss, Illness or Disease\nGo to your doctor if:\nYou lose hair suddenly, if your hair loss is in clumps or significant enough that you notice large amounts on your pillow, covering the back of your clothes or when you wash your hair. This type of hair loss does not represent typical male baldness, but it does require a diagnosis. Don't worry

Don't worry about it...baldness in a guy is soo sexy! But seeing a Dr. wouldn't hurt either, because sometimes hair falls as a result of a vitamin deficiency, so check that out and like I said, if you lose your hair it shouldn't be that big of a deal... I have a friend who was 20 when he first started losing his hair--now he's bald and happy with it! If you can't do nothing about it, just learn to live with it! Like I said before, bald men are sexy!

in one word..NO..\nUnfortunately there is no real process for preventing male baldness..Products such as Nioxin or Rogaine do decrease the amount of hair lost, but the catch is once you stop using them, the hair continues to recede as fast as if you had never started.

Considered suicide? Are you kidding? Hair loss, at least hair thinning happens to most of us guys sooner or later, it's mostly all in your genes and their ain't much you can do about it. I know guys of 20 who are already balding and guys of 70 with a full head of hair. There are transplants and even medications that can (sort of) help you but it's best to just accept it...sort of like the size of your you-know-what. It really makes little difference in the whole scheme of things. Your personality is much more important in being accepted by women if that's what you are worrying about and quite a few women even find bald sexy. Look at all those pop stars who are shaving their heads nowadays! Nah it's nothing to worry about and my God nothing to even giving one thought of suicide to. Counseling is available to anyone considering that option for any reason but losing your hair shouldn't be one of those reasons. Just accept it as normal and get on with your life!
