AskDocWeb: That is not unusual as it often takes 3 to 6 months to see results. Many people are looking for a quick fix but hair just does not grow that fast.

Date: 12/22/2013
Hi, I am 21 year old. I have lost much hair and can see my scalp from distance. i have no family problem of hair loss, 3 month ago went to dermatologist and he gave me fourrts hairgro serum(morning), bitozed forte tablet(morning), minoxidil topical solution USP 5%(night). initially my hair stopped falling but now they have again started to fall. Plz give me some advise. and plz tell me how much time does it take hair to regrow. thank you in advance.

AskDocWeb: Hopefully you have reported to your dermatologist that your hair has started falling again. Treatments often require adjustments and your doctor needs your feedback in order to do that. For most people hair grows anywhere from 1/2 inch to 5/8 inch per month. However, when using a treatment for hair loss, results often take three to six months to show up.

AskDocWeb: For the most successful treatment of your individual condition it is always better to rely on advice of your local healthcare provider. This forum is limited to discussing the side effects and effectiveness of products used to treat hair loss – although if your wedding date is near, you might consider using a wig that resembles your natural hair.

Segal solution
Date: 2/15/2014
My friends, dont ever use this segal solution. This is sh*t and a fake product. I have devoted 1 year and thousands of rupees on this product. But it made my problem even worse. This is some fake product from Canada. They dont have FDA approval. They just make up the story. Dont use it ever. It will make your hair loss problem even worse. That’s an honest opinion based on personal usage.

Hello sir, from 3-4 years i am losing my hair, i have been some sort of shampoo (ketokonazole). at first i was getting good result but, i am experiencing it again. My hair growth result is quite good, but after certain time it began to fall. now i m thinking of using some of these spray product, plz help me with your suggestion.

Tushar

AskDocWeb: To date the spray products we have looked at provide only cosmetic benefits. That is, they improve the look of your hair temporarily making it appear thicker. So far none of them have impressed us to the point where we would suggest them to anyone. Have you had a medical physical to find out why you are losing hair?

Re: Nisim review/questions:
Date: 3/11/2014
Very well answered for the most part. I am the president of Nisim and would like to offer a selection of 3 dozen sets of shampoos/conditioners for you to adequately put to the test our claim “control excessive hair loss within one week of proper use”. Best Regards.

John

AskDocWeb: Thanks for the offer John but we are going to pass on that. Finding 36 participants probably wouldn’t be too hard but we are planning on retiring before the end of the year so there will be no new project started here. Since we will be selling this website you may want to contact the new owner(s) with your offer.

Bosley starter kit and trying to conceive
Date: 4/6/2014
I am wondering if it is safe for my husband to use the Bosley starter kit (shampoo, conditioner, and gel) while we are trying to conceive and later while I am pregnant. I have heard about the birth defect risk with Propecia, and I want to be safe.

M

AskDocWeb: As far as we know the Bosley starter kit contains no Propecia (finasteride). You might check with Bosley’s customer service to find out if there are any other issues related to conception but none have been reported here.

Interactions between supplements?
Date: 4/8/2014
Hi, can i use procerin and har vokse pills together?

Max

AskDocWeb: Hi Max, welcome. Unfortunately there is no database that lists interactions between supplements. You’ll have to contact the customer service department at the company selling the pills.

Propecia and tribulus terrestris?
Date: 6/7/2014
Hi. I interested to take propecia. I take tribulus terrestris every day (for erection problem ) and I have problem with my hair. Can I take propecia and tribulus terrestris together?

Antre

AskDocWeb: Tribulus terrestris has a few cautions you might want to check but we haven’t seen any drug/herb interactions listed with Propecia. Our concern is that, if the theory that DHT causes hair loss is true, are you sure you want to take anything that would increase your DHT, which might increase hair loss?

Is it possible to regrow hair with medication?
Date: 6/11/2014
I am suffering from diffused hair loss from last few months, as a result of which my hairline has also receded. My doctor prescribed me VB7 tablet, Pilogro 5% , ecolone lotion, arcelone lotion and tricoz serum. I want to know if these prescription is good enough for cure or not? And also is it possible to regrow hairs through proper medication?

Konark

AskDocWeb: While it is possible to regrow hair by using medication that is only a treatment. There is no cure. The treatment must be used continuously to maintain hair growth. If it is discontinued then the new hair will gradually fall out over the following few months.

As for your specific treatment, we do not keep track of the effectiveness of drugs made in countries outside of the USA. There are just far too many. Hair Loss – 31 – 32 – 33 – Page 34 – 35 – 36 – 37 – Last page 40
