Minoxidil and Hair Loss Blog

No matter what hair loss treatment you may or may not be using, there is something that is crucial in maintaining your hair’s health, quality shampoo products. I have used many products over the years including, Progaine shampoo, Revivogen shampoo, and Nioxin. Today I am using Biolage shampoo and conditioner and I have to say, that I can really notice a difference in how my hair feels and looks. My hair is usually pretty dry, but I never really noticed this until I used a good quality hydrating shampoo. Without a quality shampoo and conditioning regimen, your scalp can dry out fast. And, if you are using products like Minoxidil or Rogaine, this may lead to some irritation on your scalp. So, do your hair a favor and spend a few extra bucks on some decent products.

Women suffer from hair loss, just as men do, even though it is not as widely publicized. However, there are most likely just as many women that suffer from hair loss as there are men. With that said, there are many differences in the causes of female hair loss from their male counterparts. Many women lose their hair due to stress or because of chemical/hormonal imbalances. It is common in these situations for women to lose hair in spots or clumps. This type of hair loss is not treatable with common over the counter treatments like Rogaine for Women. In these situations, it is best for the woman to consult her physician to help diagnose where the problem is coming from and treating it accordingly. For women with hereditary hair loss, there is good news. Like men, there are over the counter medications like Rogaine and it’s generic counterpart Minoxidil that are readily available. There are even new treatments like Revivogen with new anti-DHT technology built in.

For years, Pharmacia and Upjon held a patent to the production of Minoxidil for it’s brand name product Rogaine. In the late 90’s, the patent expired and many large pharmaceutical companies like Bauch and Lomb got into the commercial production of Minoxidil. As with many products, the market became saturated quickly with generic Minoxidil products and the price quickly bottomed out. One of the main reasons for this was the introduction of Kirkland Minoxidil by our friends at Costco. Costco had such a huge advantage as they had such a great sales channel to introduce their new Minoxidil product to. Kirkland Minoxidil was available for purchase over the internet from Costco for a long time, but due to much tighter shipping regulations, they were forced to stop selling on line. Today, specialty outfits like Minoxidil for Less are your best source for Kirkland Minoxidil and other hair loss treatments and information.
