I am 19 years old my hair loss started when I was 16 , I immediately go to dermatologist and he said I have male pattern hair loss. He didn't prescribe finesteride because I was only 16 he just give me 2% zinc shampoo and a multivitamin for 2months I did it for 2 months nothing changed but shampoo was good. Last week I go to herbal doctor he gave me Evening primerose oil 1capsule a day for 6 months. Will Evening primerose oil capsule helps to slow down my hair loss? Help me I'm balding :(

Answer: Hair loss in men There are hundreds of treatments for men with balding. Some help and many do not help. I would suggest you review your options again with your dermatologist. Evening primrose will not slow balding in a male who developed balding at age 16.

Answer: 19 with hair loss Your biggest enemy is the progressive thinning leading to a balding pattern that is not evident at this point in time. The degree of thinning that you are experiencing would suggest that you should see a doctor who most likely will get Bulk Measurements of your hair to determine the degree of the thinning that you are presently having. If the diagnosis is early genetic hair loss (the most common cause of hair loss in young men), then the best treatment would be the drug finasteride which is highly effective in men of your age and may not only stop the hair loss but possibly reverse it. If you are developing a more advanced balding pattern the best test to get will determine the Bulk Measurements of your hair and this will show, over a one-year time frame, how effective the treatment will be. Once you know this information, then you and your doctor need to develop a MASTER PLAN which will define what you need to do over the years to come
