If you have substantial knowledge of hair loss, then you must be aware of the term Dihydrotestosterone or DHT. Dihydrotestosterone or DHT is the main substance that results in hair loss; this DHT is derived from testosterone by an enzyme called 5 alpha reducates. Thus, DHT Testosterone is responsible for the formation of primary sex characteristics of the male during embryonic life and secondary sex characteristics at puberty. Hence the enhanced production of DHT in adult males ultimately results in male pattern baldness. In short, in males, progesterone acts to limit the production of DHT by testosterone.
According to expert dermatologists, if you can block the over production of DHT then your hair loss can be stopped and can even be reversed. Thus, it is a safe and effective avenue used for treating hair loss that has been the development of ‘5AR inhibitors’. Scientifically talking they are the group of substances that stop the action of the 5AR enzyme and hence lower DHT levels.
Going back a few years we came to know that DHT inhibiting drug was introduced and in short it has shown good results in inhibiting hair loss and in many instances reversing it. Thymuskin, an innovative set of topical hair loss treatments, heads the list of DHT inhibitors. Firmly backed by clinical data it is more effective than any of the other hair loss products, but at the same time it may seem more expensive – however you have to take into account how long the bottles/treatments last – the price per month is then competitive with other products. However, price often comes secondary when we see its success rate. It has shown 67% success rate in men and 97% in women for Androgenetic alopecia. Thus, it won’t be wrong to say that Thymuskin is an excellent DHT inhibitor and growth stimulator.
Revivogen is another significant DHT inhibitor producing efficient results. This DHT inhibitor also contains excellent growth stimulators and has shown 77% positive results in male hair loss. Apart from Revivogen, you can also go for Tricomin which uses copper peptides to shorten the resting phase of the hair that ultimately results in a greater number of hairs in the growth phase. Also it results in thicker hair and it is classed as a type of growth stimulator. However, it is not a DHT inhibitor.

Nowadays hair loss is a very common problem not only among males but among females too. Hair loss is a source of great anxiety for many, directly affecting their self-confidence and causing feelings of mental and emotional humiliation.
With such a high level of anxiety among hair loss sufferers, it is only natural that the hair loss market be filled with a wide selection of effective and not so effective hair loss products.
There are plenty of effective hair loss products and hair regrowth products to choose from, such as natural essential oils, natural herbs, conventional drugs, shampoos, serums, lotions and conditioners.
Finasteride, Minoxidil, and Rogaine are the more popular hair loss drug products available today to stop or prevent hair loss. Finasteride is sold in pharmacies as Propecia, and this hair loss product is recommended only for men. Like Finasteride, Rogaine is available only through drugstores. Rogaine has to be applied twice daily for 3 to 4 months to get any positive results.
Minoxidil is a common and effective hair loss treatment method among younger men. However, continual use of hair loss drug products such as Minoxidil may lead to side effects such as a itchy scalp, or even more serious complications such as low libido if these hair loss treatment products are used over a long period of time.
With these possible side effects linked to hair loss drug products, more and more hair loss sufferers are turning to natural hair loss remedies to prevent or stop hair loss. Dr Proctor, Thymuskin, Viviscal, Hair Genesis, Revivogen, Tricomin, and Nisim products are just some examples of the best hair loss products available on the market.
Dr. Proctor’s Hair Regrowth shampoo is one of the more popular natural hair loss products, as it has no chemical ingredient. Its Regrowth shampoo is widely used by hair loss sufferers due to its easy application, while its Life Extension Shampoo supports healthy hair.
Thymuskin is more effective (95%) in female than male (67%) for treating hair loss. This hair loss shampoo clears the hair follicle of debris, dirt, oil and other waste. It consists of thymus peptides that diffuse deep into the hair follicles to clean them.
Viviscal shampoo helps to maintain healthy hair. Apart from this, the shampoo treats hair loss and hair thinning. Viviscal products are available in all forms including scalp lotion, conditioner and tablets.
Hair Genesis products are also available as conditioners, topical serums, oral supplements, and hair regrowth shampoo. Hair Genesis is especially favoured by women, and it works mainly by stopping the DHT blockers.
