Response To: What Do You Think Of Rogaine Usage For Hair Loss?

Hello Samuel,

First, for our website viewers, let me explain that Rogaine (generic name minoxidil) is a medicated (drug) solution used to treat baldness or hair loss. It?s not clear how Rogaine works. One theory is that it opens up the blood vessels and stimulates the hair follicles with increased blood flow. It may work better on the top and back of the scalp than it does on the front or sides. To maintain new hair growth, you must continue to use Rogaine every day. If you stop treatment, your hair will return to its pre-treatment growth pattern. Many of our customers have spoken of the following side effects that I feel you should be aware of:

1) an allergic reaction (difficulty breathing; closing of the throat; swelling of the lips, tongue, or face; or hives)
2) chest pain
3) irregular or very fast heartbeats
4) dizziness or lightheadedness; or
fainting

You should know that drugs force the body to respond in a certain way but there is most always a "rebound effect" when you stop using it and many times, even during usage. Our company firmly believes in assisting the body's processes through only natural means. Below is a testimonial we just received from a woman in the UK and we hope it will encourage you and help direct you.

Warm Regards,
Nanette

Testimonial

I am sending this email to tell you that I have been using Double Strength TheraCream on my husband's scalp, he has dry red patches where he is bald on the front and top of his scalp. He also uses my herbal shampoo treatment every day. I have been massaging the cream in nearly every night to see if it could help with the dry red patches; not only has it helped but most amazingly he is growing hair on top!! All he had left on top was a tuft of hair in the front and quite thick hair around the sides and back. We are absolutely thrilled with it! It was so unexpected. He keeps going to the mirror to check it out. I think he's scared it is all in his imagination but I can assure you and him it is not. We'll keep on applying it to fill in his scalp!

Just thought you may like to hear this testimonial. Thank you heaps and I look forward to filling you in on his progress.

Kind regards

Helen B.

Rogaine

Using Rogaine is a pain. It takes long to dry, and when it finally dries it turns white looking like chalk powder. Then you have to be "married" to the product!!
