Regaine For Men Extra Strength Solution

Regaine

There are different types of hair loss, but the most common cause of hair loss is hereditary male pattern baldness. Typically, anyone who suffers from male pattern baldness can start to notice signs of hair loss in their mid to late twenties. About 20% of men will start to notice some visible hair loss by the age of 20, including bald patches, hair thinning, bald spots, and a receding hairline.

With many signs of ageing, some are happy to accept it, however, others can become profoundly impacted by it. Men who suffer from balding early on are more likely to develop anxiety as a result. While there isn’t still a permanent cure for male pattern baldness, with the help of medication, you can reverse the effects. 

Regaine for men extra strength scalp solution works for hereditary hair loss or general thinning in men aged 18-65 years, the younger you are when you start the treatment, the more likely you will experience the best results. Therefore, if you have been bald for many years or have a larger area of hair loss, you are less likely to benefit from the results. 

Due to hair loss not being funded by the NHS, many leave the condition untreated. At Oxford Online Pharmacy, we offer a wide range of private prescription medications available in a few clicks.

How does it work?

Regaine for Men Extra Strength Scalp Solution works by stimulating hair growth. Minoxidil, the solution's active ingredient, begins to work by reinvigorating shrunken and damaged hair follicles, which will eventually grow in length because of increased blood flow to the follicle.

Typically, people will start to see results by 16 weeks after their first application, this will vary depending on the person. You will see the best results from Regaine if it is used consistently, twice a day. (1)

What are the side effects of Regaine?

With all medication, you can expect side effects, although, each person reacts differently meaning the symptoms can vary. Most side effects will be mild, however, if you experience any of the following, stop taking the medication and contact your doctor:

• Acne
• Headaches
• Swollen hands or feet
• Faintness or dizziness
• Rapid heartbeat
• Sudden unexplained weight gain

• Persistent local redness or rash
• Chest pain

You may experience other side effects: 

• Unwanted hair not on your scalp - After application, it is important that you thoroughly wash your hands. If you accidentally get the solution on other parts of your body other than your scalp, make sure you wash the area thoroughly with lots of water.
• You may experience a change in texture and hair colour, if this happens, stop using Regaine.  
• Hair loss can occur within the first 2-6 weeks of using the product, this is only temporary. This is normally caused by a change to the growth cycle, and you should expect this to stop within a few weeks. If the hair loss continues for more than two weeks, stop using the product and consult your doctor. 
• Irritation to your scalp, for example, redness, itchiness, flaky skin, and dryness. This can be from the propylene glycol which is in Regaine. Normally, you will only temporarily experience these symptoms, however, if they persist, stop using the product and consult your doctor. 

If you experience any symptoms that are not listed above, stop taking the medication and consult a medical professional. 

What happens if I stop taking Regaine?

If you stop using Regaine, you will eventually lose the hair which you have regrown from the medication. Minoxidil is a pharmacy regulated product that has been clinically proven safe for long term use. After you stop using Regaine, it can be a while until you start to notice the hair loss starting to worsen, this will normally be between 6-9 months, after that, you will notice hair falling out again. 

Combining Regaine with Finasteride 

Our medical professionals recommend the use of Finasteride alongside Regaine as an effective treatment. You can use them both safely alongside each other to boost your chance of positive results.

Finasteride works by blocking the effects that DHT (a hormone that is a derivative of testosterone) has on the follicles. Like Regaine, Finasteride can’t permanently cure male pattern baldness, however, if the symptoms can be managed with long term use.
