Treatment for hair loss
There are treatments available depending on the type of hair loss. If a medicine is causing hair loss, your doctor may prescribe a different drug. Recognizing and treating an infection could stop hair loss. Correcting a hormone imbalance may prevent further hair loss.
Medications can reduce the speed or prevent the development of common baldness. A drug available is minoxidil (brand name: Rogaine) that requires no prescription. This applies to the scalp. Both men and women can use. Another remedy available is finasteride (brand name: Propecia) prescription. It comes in pill form and is only for men. It could take six months before you can tell if one of these medicines is working.
If there is an appropriate treatment for your type of hair loss could be considered different hairstyles or wigs, hairpieces, weaving hair or artificial hair replacement.
