But what about older hair loss sufferers who only just recently started losing their hair? Do the same general principles apply to them as well? When is hair transplant surgery a viable solution and when should non-surgical baldness treatments be tried first?

You may have heard the expression, if you cant take the heat, stay out of the kitchen. Similarly, for the first few weeks after hair transplant surgery, its important to minimize certain normal activities such as physical exercise or doing anything that will negatively impact your hair transplant. But which activities are safe and which arent? How long do you have to wait after hair restoration surgery to resume some of these activities?

Most active members on our hair loss forum know that male pattern baldness is caused by genetics and that the hormone dihydrotestosterone (DHT) is responsible for the loss of hair genetically susceptible to it. Some hair loss treatments like Propecia (finasteride) work by blocking 5-alpha-reductase enzymes which when combined with testosterone, produce DHT. But why do proven hair loss treatment solutions like Propecia work wonders for some and arent as effective for others?
On this hair loss forum thread, forum members discuss their experience with hair loss solutions nd offer an explanation as to why some balding men have better success than others with non-surgical treatments. You are encouraged to offer your own experience and input.
