[tag]Nettle Root[/tag] as a [tag]Hair Loss Treatment[/tag]
There are a number of herbal supplements out there that claim to work as a [tag]hair loss[/tag] treatment. Whereas there is no question that marketing is over-reaching at best in order to sell a product, the real question for any [tag]hair loss[/tag] sufferer is: will this product help combat hair loss or is there any chance that it will [tag]regrow hair[/tag]? To date however, it is important to understand that there is no [tag]hair loss cure[/tag], therefore realistic expectations must be kept when considering any [tag]hair restoration[/tag] product.
Below I decided to take a look at an herbal supplement that is said to combat hair loss. This product is an “active” ingredient in a number of [tag]hair loss remedies[/tag] including Procerin and others and is also sold as a stand alone product in nutritional stores.
Nettle Root:
This is yet another product that has been used in patients suffering from [tag]benign prostatic hypertrophy[/tag] ([tag]BPH[/tag]). Other uses of Nettles have been for arthritis, asthma, kidney and urinary tract infections, and more.
Because it has been used for those with enlarged prostate, it has been speculated that extracts of Nettles when applied to the scalp might stimulate hair growth.
Topical and oral treatments are available.
I have not seen any studies of its effectiveness in combating hair loss or regrowing hair either for those suffering from [tag]Androgenetic Alopecia[/tag] ([tag]genetic hair loss[/tag]) or [tag]Alopecia Areata[/tag].
Dosage:
Those who speculate its efficacy for hair loss typically recommend doses of about 500 mg a day.
Side Effects:
When topically applied, irritation of the scalp or an allergic reaction can occur. When taken orally, it can cause upset stomach, burning, difficulty with urination, bloating, and edema. This product should not be used in patients with heart or kidney problems as due to fluid retention properties.
Conclusions:
I can certainly understand how in theory, Nettle Root could be considered a viable hair loss treatment because of its inhibition of [tag]5-alpha-reductase[/tag] enzyme properties. But because this has not been clinically tested as a hair loss treatment, one cannot say with any amount of certainty that it has any level of efficacy for hair restoration. Additionally, because there has been no formal clinical studies, dosage and how it should be used (orally or topically) is also, at best, speculation.
