Does Anything Grow Hair on a Bald Scalp?
-
Identification
-
Treating hair loss is most effective when the loss is not extensive. Medicines such as minoxidil and finasteride are both recommended by doctors to help stimulate hair growth and stop the loss of hair.
Function
-
Minoxidil comes in a liquid form that you rub into your scalp twice each day, while finasteride is taken as a pill. Both may take some time to be effective but may allow you to grow enough new hair to cover a bald spot.
Considerations
-
You will need to continually use minoxidil and finasteride, as new hair growth stops as soon as you discontinue use. Minoxidil may cause scalp irritation while finasteride can reduce your libido.
