When it comes to hair loss, prevention is the best treatment, especially if you have a family history of hair loss or are a woman with a family history of a hormone imbalance. Hair loss therapy only works if the patient still has follicles. If a person waits too long and the follicles themselves have fallen out, it’s not possible to stimulate hair growth.

If you have a history of hair loss in your family or notice signs that your hair is beginning to thin, it’s best to seek treatment immediately to achieve the best results.
