Description:
The medical condition that causes male pattern baldness is called androgenetic alopecia or AGA. It is a genetic condition due to a hormone called DHT that stimulates the hair follicles to stop producing hair.
Minoxidil is a medication that helps regrow thin hair when applied topically. It works as a vasodilator, meaning that it widens blood vessels so that more nutrient-rich blood flow to the hair follicles.
Benefits:
This topical solution for hair loss in men has also been shown to promote hair growth and increase the thickness of existing hair.
