Natural Treatments for Men's Hair Loss

Hair growth goes through a normal cycle where it grows for at least 2 years and falls out months later. For some men, the hair falls out much too frequently leaving them with thinning hair. Natural treatments are available to treat hair loss in men.

Types

• Natural treatments for hair loss in men that are ingested include green tea, licorice root and horsetail. Sage tea and apple cider vinegar are used externally on the scalp.

Effects

• Natural treatments may stimulate hair growth and prevent further hair loss in men by reducing the hair follicle's androgen activity.

Benefits

• Men find it beneficial to use natural treatments to treat hair loss because they are readily available and are less expensive than traditional hair loss treatments.

Warning

• Natural hair loss treatments will still cause side effects in some people such as raising blood pressure.

Considerations

• It has not been determined whether natural hair loss treatments work reliably in men. As with any hair loss treatment, some men will see results while others will not.
