@Novemberrain81 No need to loose sleep! For our patients, taking the test actually alleviates the ‘worry’ because there are FDA-approved, effective preventative treatments for hair loss that can be started before the hair loss is noticeable. If you are ‘high risk,” you can also choose to “watch and wait” because there are ways to carefully monitor for the very early signs of hair loss–holding off on treatment until it becomes a concern. –Dr. B.
So you take this test and it says “You are going bald”. Congratulations!!! Now you can spend endless nights staying up worrying about baldness even though baldness might be 20 years away.

Don’t listen to all these people claiming that Propecia causes permanent sexual dysfunction.
Propecia is a fantastic product from a fantastic company. if you have hairloss, buy 2 two-year supply of propecia immediately. Don’t wait.
You can get a great-deal from Pharma5 Propecia Online.
Great service and a great price

Genetic hair loss testing, if indicated, is performed as part of your medical evaluation–which includes a detailed medical history and examination. The test is non-invasive and the results come back within just a few weeks. When you visit baumanmedical-dot-com and request a consultation, be sure to ask about the genetic test to assess hair loss risk.
hey so where can i order one of these tests? or is there like an specific place i can get a diagnose??
Hairloss is genetic most of the time.
Jerry, Side effects can occur even at 2%, but honestly, it’s VERY rare. I think people are more likely to run into ‘issues’ if they try to self-treat. When you are under the care of a physician, he can monitor for the effects–good and bad, and make changes accordingly. What works for one person, may not work for another—that’s the art of medicine!
Actually, we know that male pattern hair loss is directly related to genetics, which determines how sensitive your hair follicles will be to dihydrotestosterone (DHT). Other factors like protein-poor diets, ‘crash’-diets, smoking, steroid use and stress can contribute, but it’s primarily genetic in men. Effective medical treatment is available. The earlier you start treatment, the better your chance of saving your hair.
this is stupid, hair loss is very much based on your diet, u eat a lot of oils, fats, sugars u will start loosing hair now combine that with stress u will start losing lots of hair, yes in part it does go with genetics. NONE of my family is bolt or has grey hair at old age, my father is almost 70 still has black hair. but me i am start to loose my hair, maybe because of my poor diet while in the struggle and life in the jungle
IF you wana know more about hair loss search FOR “old drunk man fights younger man in Antwerp” and check people’s comments, sounds weird i know but the comment might help you
im 15 and i lost my hair when i was like 4… it was my dad’s genes. althought, im getting some hair above my mouth etc.
I gained my hair back by wearing Alex Chiu’s Immortality Rings. My hairline went back to when I was 25. The rings really did help me gain lots of hair back.
my hair is from stress my doctor says but i see small hair growing back but thats it it wont grow anymore it stays small how do i get it to grow longer and thicker? the hiar that fell off grew back to a small tiny piece.

Hot water does not cause hair loss. Hair loss is a medically-treatable condition, so you need an evaluation by a physician who specializes in hair loss.
Hair loss from styling (pulling), called traction alopecia, can be permanent. However, minoxidil/rogaine can help stimulate those follicles to ‘wake up’ and produce stronger hair. Unfortunately, if you continue to do damage to your thin hair by braiding, pulling, hair extensions, etc. you might need hair transplantation in the future to restore hair to the damaged areas.

And you recomend laser models very different for treatment of hair Loss. Erchonia have 5mW, Hairmax have 40mW, and some laser Helmets you use have more than 350mW. That’s a big difference… And turn your comments to contradiction.
Higher concentrations of minoxidil are more prone to get more side effects likedizziness, fatigue, and dangerously low blood pressure as your body absorbs more of it into the blood stream.
