Hi, I am a 29 year old male and I lost most of my hair on top within 2 years.  I feel that I am way too young to be experiencing this much hair loss.  I took many medicines and hair loss treatments but none of them really worked.  What is the best way to regrow hair naturally?

Losing hair can be emotionally difficult, especially when it seems that hair is rapidly shedding and disappearing leaving us with a bald head.

Though “all-natural” hair loss products are appealing, the majority of the ingredients in them at best contain anecdotal evidence of any efficacy for treating baldness.  Common ingredients in these herbal hair loss treatments include saw palmetto, nettle root, Vitamin E, tea tree oil, azelaic acid, and PABA.  Though many of these claim to inhibit DHT (the hormone responsible for male pattern baldness), most have not been clinically tested, and those that have, only on a smaller scale. 

In my opinion, Propecia (finasteride) and Rogaine (minoxidil), though they are not considered natural products, are superior and give balding men the greatest opportunity to stop hair loss and possibly stimulate hair regrowth. 

None of them however, are miracle cures and those with severe thinning hair or the completely bald will most likely not experience much new hair growth.
