Hair loss is something that comes about to a good number men at some stage in the course of their lives. This can be a setback if we youthful and really don't want to lose our locks just yet.

I have done a lot of study into the male hair loss treatments currently available and below i discuss in a few words some of them with you. It has to be made clear that it's by far healthier to start using them earlier rather than later as most of the products accessible at the moment don't bring back to life dead hair follicles, but purely prevent anymore from dying in the future as long as you continue to make use of the products. Of course this is stopping short of hair implants which in fact is a final resort. Below i contrast Propecia with Procerin; a chemical versus natural based male hair loss treatment.

1. Propecia - The active ingredient in Propecia is finasteride that  works by inhibiting the enzyme 5-alpha reductase that  is accountable for converting testosterone into dihydrotestosterone (DHT). It this DHT which causes a thinning, shortening and a weakening of the hair follicles that causes hair loss. DHT as well causes loss of pigmentation in the hair which causes us to go gray.

By stopping DHT from being fashioned Propecia stops hair loss from the foundation and is effectual in 80% of cases. Propecia comes in tablets to be taken once a day and results should usually be found between 3 - 6 months. When you stop using it however, the results will wear off. Noted side effects include an itching and swelling also in exceptional cases a loss of sexual desire. Nevertheless Propecia is one of the more popular male hair loss treatments in the US and Europe at present.

2. Procerin - In contrast to Propecia, Procerin is manufactured using all natural products, primarily berry extract and works in a similar way by blocking the production of DHT.

Procerin is a two part treatment, tackling male hair loss on 2 fronts. You take a pill and as well rub on a foam directly to the effected area. Procerin is becoming more accepted as it works faster than most other products on the marketplace. It has also been noted in some cases that when you stop taking it, the effects do not wear off. Noted side effects comprise an itchy scalp and dandruff owing to use of the foam, nevertheless using the foam less has reduced these effects.
