Hair Loss Treatments For Men (According To Science)

On By In Hair Care

Restolin is a hair loss supplement (sold online through Restolin Official Website) that supports hair growth using natural ingredients. By taking Restolin daily, you can support hair growth and hair quality using minerals, vitamins, nutrients, herbal extracts, adaptogens, and antioxidants.

There is a lot of confusion about which hair loss treatments for men actually work, and which ones are bogus. So let’s clear up the confusion by taking a comprehensive look into the scientifically backed treatment for men who are going bald.

One point of clarification: nutritional deficiencies don’t cause male pattern hair loss but can make it appear worse by affecting the quality of hair growth. Replenishing these nutrients can improve hair quality, but won’t reverse the balding process.

  5. By age of 23 start using mixture oil of onion, vitamin e, castrol and coconut with rose oil to remove stringent smell. Stop eating fast food and exercise daily and don’t stress too much. Also have good amount of protein in your diet.

    1. @Rahul Vaidya The problem with hair loss is there is so much confusion and misinformation out there. You can’t stop hairloss if you have male pattern baldness without using DHT blockers. You will keep balding and thinning until the day you die if you do not stop it from attacking your hair follicles. Its simply how it works. All the things you have mentioned will, to varying degrees, simply slow it down.

    2. @Schtiel It did bro… I was losing hair but after doing the above mentioned things my hair growth is very good now…

    3. @varun singh Yes you are right you cannot grow your hair if it gone from your scalp… but you can prevent hair loss even if it genetics by the method I mentioned since male baldness starts from age 23…Prevention is always better than cure… and if its too late then the only option is hair transplant…

    4. @ User 01 Well your comment shows you don’t have any idea of how male pattern baldness/MPB. Add a bunch of other items and you still wont be able to keep a strand of hair on your head if the hairloss is due to MPB. What you suggested is for hair nourishment not hairloss due to MPB/Androgenetic alopecia.

    5. Thats going to reduce cortisol and increase blood flow, you will also physically look healthier. However, it won’t stop hair loss.

  6. I am taking dutasteride about 2 month regularly ,1st month reduce hair fall but 2nd month drastically hair fall about too 100 to 200 parday
    Why???

    1. If it’s causing massive shedding stop already. You’re going to regret. Check forums like hairlosstalk

    4. @Mitchell Isaac but my 1st month
      Became dense and reduce hiar fall suddenly 2nd month drastically falling hairs but why??

  12. Chandigarh Ayurved Centre Hair Live Oil is 100% natural & safe prepared from various extracts of herbs & oil. It is used in various kind of hair related issues like ,  etc. It contains very good herbs that work on your hair and roots of hair in your scalp. It makes your hair shiny and thick. The herbs used for formulation of this oil shows antioxidant, anti-dandruff,  properties. This product is herbal and natural formula for maintaining hair health.

  15. hey thanks for amazing content! @DocUnlock I have one question about that i dont have any genetics balding from hereditary but i am quickly losing hair from top part but not in male pattern! I am 20 , do u think i should try minoxidile 5%? your reply will be really Appriciated . Thanks for the video

  18. Would love to hear more about the other treatments. Especially Dutasteride seems to be very polarizing.

    Since Finasteride isn’t working great for me I might need to switch to this so would love a vid on it 🙂

    3. @Rihan Sa yeah I am talking to dermatologists with every step I take! I don’t want wo fully rely on internet opinions haha. The doctor said that adding in dutasteride once a week instead of Finasteride that day might also help…

      Maybe oral minoxidil instead of topical is a step I might consider too.

    4. Dutasteride won’t work either. It may take you to a point with massive shed and no recovery. So please do research before being self doctor and go through forums like hairlosstalk

  19. I heard of some people that were completely bald but had an estrogen therapy or something Like that, they gained back a huge amount of Hair which is why i think that Hair follicles take a looonnngg time to actually die. I personally would never do that but interesting If you could make a Video on it 🙂

    1. @brother hh I would absolutely never advise anybody to ever do that of course, i mean Just thinking about putting estrogen in a mans body seems wrong. (Even though both genders have each Others “Main” Hormone in another for a little Bit atleast) I Just thought about the Hair follicles actually dying in that Sense because i saw bald people pretty much going Back to having a full head of Hair. Have a good day!

    2. Increased estrogen in men can cause erectile dysfunction and other sexual related problems. It can even lead to prostate cancer. I wouldn’t suggest that to anyone if i were you.

    3. @Illi Mai i think they technically dont die until old age.They just become so atrophied that no current treatment can make them grow properly as far as i know. i have seen a few cases where slick bald areas get covered with hair again. one case was a guy who had bald temples for 9 years. pretty neat honestly.

    4. I’ve heard that hair follicles die in 3-5 years after its been inactive, but you might be right.

    5. I second this, would be cool to hear more about this. I think I’ve heard of this before too. Please could you do a video on it

  20. So are u saying me that if im in genetically programmed for male pattern baldness and i smoke cigarettes will it cause me to go bald earlier than if i dint smoke ?

  21. Very nice film. Please could you do one I’m dutasteride because I first heard of it’s use when Ashton kutcher said he used it on TV, but I don’t know enough about it and if the risk reward is worth considering

  23. Hope you well, ok so my friend received multiple injections around the bald spot from alopecia and then was sent home with a script of finesteride. Any idea what the injection may be?

    2. @Prateek Pujara it blocks 99% of the strongest male androgen dht….it has more side effects than fin.

    3. @Osman but i heard many people saying it dont have side effects like fin.

    1. @Satan in disguise يسطى فى ترند طالع على الروز ميرى فمصر اليومين دول على انة بديل للمينوكسديل ٢% اية رأيك فالحوار ده

    2. @Satan in disguise ٢٥ و الصلع عندى بقى جامد بس خايف استعمل الدوا عشان الاعراض انت بتستغملة بقالك قد اية و عندك كام سنة

  27. I have no side effects ……..in finasteride ….except anxiety …….

  28. I started using finasteride 8 months back and I am really happy. I don’t want to end up looking like Moby or like an American male feminist

  30. Yes please upload some more detail about the therapy that you mention in last.

    2. @DocUnlock your videos are really awesome but will you keep your videos in animated style Please

    3. Is there any particular treatment you’re interested in learning more about?

    1. @DocUnlock How effective it is. Do studies confirm its efficiency for hairloss. How affordable is it ? What is the science behind it. How does it compare with mesotherapy. Thanks !

  33. I’m curious about food and supplement products that are mildly estrogenic such as legumes, some types of seeds, etc. They can purportedly help also. Your thoughts?

    1. Hi Damien, legumes and seeds are a great source of nutrients so it is helpful from a general nutrition standpoint to include these foods in your day to day meals (keeping in mind that seeds are quite calorie dense so definitely don’t want to overdo the quantity of these). But in my opinon, the likelihood of these foods having enough of a hormonal effect to slow hair loss progression is very low. So they are great from a nutrition perspective but unlikely to effect hair loss.

  34. I would very much like you to go on detail especially about the laser methods, as i was aware that they are a scam. Do you think laser treatments can really help/reverse the problem like finasteride and minoxidil?

    2. @All Ee You can use it life long. Finastride doesn’t protect your scalp but it prevents the conversion of Testosterone to DHT (which is a byproduct). You can imagine like this. Testosterone and DHT is poured into your bloodstream which circulated around your whole body. When this blood reaches your scalp and to the hairs, every hair scans and looks for the presence of DHT. If they find some DHT, they may or may not activate the DHT protocol which is thinning of the hair. This depends upon the genetics and location of the hair. For example the hair on your sides wont activate the DHT-Protocol but the hair on your top of your head does more likely. Again Genetics is the only factor which determines, whether you loose hair, how senslible your hair is to DHT and the rate of hair loss. Hair loss is transmitted to X chromosome, which means from your mothers side. If your mother dad or your cousin from your mothers sister lost hair, then you are likely to loose your hair too.

    3. @Julius C ayo please help can i use it for life long to protect my scalp ?? Another question ,At what age normal ( non genetical alopecua ) human starts balding ??

    4. Go for 1mg every alternative day. I have done enough research and haven’t found anyone talking about side effects yet.

  37. Yes please, your videos gave the information for which we pay so much. Please provide further information on this topic! Much appreciated Doc!

  38. Very interesting video! I enjoy watching your channel. Keep the good work.

    1. Kudos for the Video clip! Apologies for butting in, I am interested in your opinion. Have you tried – Dinanlinson Bright Colour Approach (just google it)? It is a good one off product for learning how to get your natural hair color back minus the headache. Ive heard some incredible things about it and my m8 at last got cool results with it.

  41. I am on using minoxidil 5% (prescribed by my dermatologist) thanks for suggesting finastride I will talk about it with him

    3. Try minoxidil with dermaneedling bro works miracles bro

    4. @Clirim Mazreku currently I am on minoxidil 5% because I have less then 60% hair left and my baldness isn’t following pattern all of my top hairs are falling, in blood test I got to know that I have vitamin b and d deficiency so currently I am on vitamin b & d supplements with minoxidil 5%, He didn’t said anything about finastride in our first meeting
      I’ll ask him in second meeting
      (IMO he didn’t suggest finastride because in the beginning minoxidil increase the hair fall)

    5. Can you please tell me what your dermatologist thinks about minoxidil 5% and finastride?

  42. All keep aside, y r we trying to slow down the natural process of hair loss(video should be made upon the happy life after baldness too)
