Restoring the hair lost due to hereditary factors is the dream of many men and women suffering from hair loss. Until not too long ago, the only effective and authentic-looking options for reversing hair loss were non-surgical cover-ups. It was only with the arrival of follicular unit transplantation and the discovery of the true cause of baldness - the harmful effects of dihydrotestosterone (DHT) on our hair follicles - that the hair-loss sufferer´s chances of reversing their condition naturally have greatly improved.
The discovery of finasteride's positive effects on hair regrowth led to finding the true cause of hereditary baldness, which is the harmful attacks of DHT on our hair follicles. Since making this discovery, a quest for other alternative DHT blockers has begun, especially amongst antiandrogen drugs and herbs that have, in the past, been used to treat urinary problems.
