Your skin is full of hair, your pillow is full of hair, your clothes are full of hair! Hormones, stress, dirt, heredity, illness - all are possible causes for hair loss. Some of them such as dirt, stress, illness can result in temporary hair loss that is reversed when these factors are dealt with.

Hormones and heredity are a bit different. Heredity leads to permanent hair loss. Hormones are not as straight forward as heredity.

Hormones and more specifically testosterones found abundantly in males help producing DHT, the main cause of hair loss. DHT causes the hair follicles to shrink and close. The hair follicle is unable to produce new hair.

For women hormones can also cause hair loss. Menopause and pregnancy come with significant hormonal imbalance that can lead to temporary or permanent hair loss.

People tried hair loss and re growth products since forever. Egyptians, Aztecs, Mayans, American Indians used a variety of natural remedies, herbal and oil based. Modern science is focused on ways to reopen and stimulate the closed hair follicles.

The results is a multitude of hair loss products available through prescription or even over the counter. Many of them contain minoxidil. The research studies show that 80% of participants experiences slower hair loss and some hair re growth occurred when using products with monoxidil. Maybe the most known product is Rogain available over the counter both for men and women. The need to offer separate hair loss products for men and women is due to different hormone levels.

Another hair loss product based on monoxidil and proved to be effective is Provillus. What Provillus offer compared to other similar products is Azelaic Acid, an ingredient that enhances follicle repair.

Provillus is available as a topical liquid to be applied on the balding areas and as pills to be taken as a support for the liquid form.

The key to its proven effectiveness is the addition of Azteic Acid as well as the quantity of this ingredient in the formulation.

Both female and male treatments require patience and results show in most cases in 3 - 6 month. Trying is completely risk free and the product can be returned if one is not satisfied. Medical research is still trying to come up with better hair loss products lots of money being annually spent in this direction. Until science can come up with a miracle solution Proviluss is one of your best hair loss product.
