One of peoples biggest concerns when considering going on propecia or dht blockers is the possible side effects. Propecia which is the marketing name for finasteride is the FDA approved prescription only drug. It’s certainly stronger than most natural dht blockers and is usually prescribed to those with moderate hair loss. It’s also commonly prescribed to patients that are in the early stages of hair loss but who’s hair loss is rapid.

Dht blockers on the other hand  are made from natural ingredients and are available over without prescription. As dht blockers are from natural milder ingredients it is very uncommon to get any side-effects. Side effects would only really occur if you happen to have an allergy to some of the dht inhibitors ingredients.

Men and women get great results from dht pills If taken on time and it’s also common to see them use dht pills in conjunction with finesteride or rogaine. After all as well as the dht blocking properties of provillus they also contain ingredients to help make hair naturally shinier and healthier looking.

Below is a list of the most common side effects of propecia :

Propecia works by reducing enzyme 5 alpha reductase which is responsible for producing dht.

  • Decreased sex drive
  • Decreased volume of ejaculate
  • Impotence
  • Breast tenderness or enlargement (less than one percent)

It’s common for men to experience some of these effects in the first month to 6 weeks of them taking propecia. These effects usually then subside. If not then you should be consulting with your gp as this is not normal.

WARNING.

Do not be fooled by those website that offer propecia for sale. These are counterfeits that don’t work. Propecia is prescription only and you should be consulting your doctor anyway when considering taking them. Propecia pills are usually taken once daily in full, half or ¼ tab form depending on what you were prescribed.

Propecia pills costs average usually at about $1- $1.50 US per day. You should not be taling propecia if you are under 18 years of age and women considering taking propecia need to factor in a lot more when making a decision as propecia can have differing side effects in women.

Do dht shampoos really work?

There are four main approaches to treating hair loss. Some treatments are designed to prevent hair loss and thinning and some focus on hair regrowth. Science and medicine has proven that DHT is the major cause of hair loss and male pattern baldness. DHT is metabolite and is associated with a hormone called testosterone. Testosterone is found in the :

  • prostate gland
  • testicles
  • adrenal glands
  • hair follicles

DHT plays an important role in body hair and facial hair growth and more importantly it is proven that an imbalance of dht causes hair loss. Good hair loss treatments aim to prevent follicular damage from DHT and some prevent DHT’s production altogether. A popular method of controlling hair loss is to embrace antiandrogens, which aim to cease DHT from binding with you androgen receptors. The other popular approach is using DHT Blockers . The purpose of dht inhibitors is to control the production of dht while reestablishing a healthy balance between natural shedding and regrowth of the phases of hair growth.

There are alot of dht blocking products on the market today. The can come in different forms :

  • Tabular , like Provillus
  • Topical
  • DHT Shampoos

A popular dht shampoo is Neutrogena T-Gel shampoo.

T-Gel shampoo is more commonly associated with treating Dandruff and psoriasis. It’s is effective as a mild dht blocker which would be suitable in the very early days of thinning but may not be strong enough to be effective.

Revivogen DHT Shampoo

Revivogen is certainly more effective as a dht blocking shampoo than T-Gel. It is made from natural ingredients so it is not as tough on the hair and scalp. Revivogen may be enough to get hair back to original strength but only in the very early stages.

DHT Shampoos should be used with focused DHT Inhibitors

Even though dht shampoos can be effective the problem is that many factors can effect the long term results of dht shampoos. Mainly the fact that the shampoo is not really ihibiting the dht can cause the problem to continue quickly after not using shampoo. You really do need to was your hair each day and becareful to not expose to elements, like rain and wind for about an hour to ensure that the shampoo gets to soak properly in and is’nt neutralized in any way.

The ideal solution is a combination of dht shampoo and a truly effective dht blocker tabular form like Provillus . If you are going for a dht shampoo, I would recommend the milder yet more effective Revivogen. Of course there are some simple dietary tips you can avail of too to make the treatment even more effective in a quicker time.
