Is minoxidil topical 5% USP is good treatment for hair baldness in men's?

minoxidil works when you are using it and baldness will go back if you stop using it.  try flaxseed oil or shampoo with zinc, i heard it is better.

Men's baldness is more mentioned because men have "pattern baldness", like balding on the side of their heads, or just in the middle or things like htat.\n\nThat's not very common with women, but they both bald.\n\nMen and women are both pretty hung up with their hair when they care about their appearance at all -- it's one of the first things we notice about other people, and we often judge a person subconciously without even realizing it because of the way their hair portrays their personality.

Be a man about it and just shave your head.  You are lucky that bald is more acceptable now than it used to be.

My heart breaks for you because there are so many women out there who love men just like you.  My husband is balding, and I am a "good looking chick" who sees him as handsome and all that.\n\nThere are treatments for baldness and weight which require effort and money, but wouldn't you be delighted if you woke up one morning and loved yourself just the way you were?  I promise you, there are women who can love you just the way you are, so please consider doing it yourself.\n\nI agree.  Your problem isn't your baldness.  Your upsetness about this an indication of significant self esteem problems.  If you are suicidal.  you need to get help soon, really, from a professional therapist or doctor, and not for baldness.\n\nGood luck, my friend.

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!

Hair loss is caused by a derivative or breakdown of testosterone, I think its called dytestosterone. Pardon my spelling, I don’t have any facts in front of me but basically too much testosterone causes baldness. So.... masturbating I believe releases testosterone into you blood stream, but I don’t believe it increases your levels. So, I would have to say it doesn’t called baldness. As for your skin, well, I wouldn’t use semen as a skin cream. It’s actually kind of strong, since it has to withstand the chemicals in the vagina on its journey to fertilization.\nMike RN

Male pattern baldness is a sex linked trait (meaning it is contained on the X chromosome).  Since males inherit the Y chromosome from their fathers, the X chromosome comes from the mother, and if the X chromosome she passes to her son happens to contain the defective form of the gene controlling male pattern baldness...\n\n...well, I hear Rogaine for men works well...\n\n...basically the long and the short of it is that if your mother had brothers or a father with male pattern baldness...there is AT LEAST a 50% chance you will have the condition...

For a real treatment, your doctor must examine you and prescribe what he feels will work.\n\nThe condition cannot be cured, but it can be treated and hair can grow back. You may be prescribed Anti-inflamitory drugs, 12 weeks of Rogaine or Psoriatec. \n\nOther things you can do are eat a well-balanced diet. Hair growth is a vitamin- and mineral-dependent process. People who do not eat a well balanced diet often have problems with hair loss. \n\nReduce stress. Many people with alopecia have had recent stresses in life, such as work, family, deaths, surgeries, accidents, etc.\n\nGood Luck!

According to WebMD  it was originally used to treat high blood pressure. Here is what they had to say: "Minoxidil was originally used to treat high blood pressure. It is now also used to treat inherited hair loss (androgenetic alopecia), the most common cause of hair loss, as well as for other causes of hair loss." \nIf you ever have any doubts on OTC meds ask the pharmacists they usually know about side effects and medication interactions and problems like that.\n\nhttp://www.webmd.com/hw/hair_loss/aa153435.asp

I have not had a problem with balding. I have been using whey protein for 5 years. There are some side effects with using to much. It can cause problems with the liver and kidneys. Thats what I have read in a few workout magazines.

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.

Yep.  The 5% solution will have 3 g of minoxidil, the other will have 1.2 g.  The total is 4.2 g, which divided by 120 ml will give you a 3.5% solution.

Dear DMMR, \n\nAbove all, you will want to do everything you can to keep good blood circulation going in your scalp.\n\nHair growth depends on good blood circulation.\nEven if you have a family tendency toward baldness, maintaining your health and circulation will slow down the process of hair loss.\n\nLots of lifestyle things cause poor circulation.\nGetting little or no exercise is the main one.\nAnother is smoking.  Say goodbye to good circulation when you smoke.\nAnother is eating too much sugar.  This causes imbalances that severely strain the body's strength to cope.\nGetting little or no sun on one's skin is actually a problem, too.  Not too much sun, just enough.\n\nIt will also help to massage your scalp a couple of times a day.  This part is easy because it feels good.\n\nHope this helps.

Rogaine works ok.\n\nMost people have better results with finasteride (Propecia).  It blocks DHT.  You can buy Proscar, cut the pills in 1/4 and take it instead.  It's cheaper that way.
