Provillus & Aromatherapy for Alopecia Areata

Hi, I would like to inquire:

a) Does [tag]Provillus[/tag] works for [tag]alopecia areata[tag] in female patients and what is the response rate?
b) When usage is stopped, will [tag]hair loss[/tag] happen again?
c) Are there any [tag]side effects[/tag] for long term usage of Provillus?
d) Is there a formula for proportion of various essential oils for treament of alopecia areata using aromatherapy?

Provillus contains active ingredient [tag]minoxidil[/tag] which is [tag]FDA approved[/tag] as a [tag]hair loss treatment[/tag].   This however, is the only ingredient that has been clinically studies and proven to fight male and [tag]female baldness[/tag]. Therefore, in my opinion, Provillus may be effective, but you are better off spending your money on [tag]Rogaine[/tag] for women or generic minoxidil, which is significantly cheaper and will administer the same benefit.   Because there is no real [tag]baldness cure[/tag], stopping the use of any medication will result in the loss of benefit.   This means that [tag]balding[/tag] will most likely continue in cases of [tag]androgenic alopecia[/tag] however, in your case, even if [tag]hair regrowth[/tag] occurs, there is no guarantee that it won’t happen again, even in other areas of the scalp.   On a positive note, in many cases, men or women with [tag]alopecia[/tag] areata don’t necessarily have to spend their life on a particular medication.

Though many supposed herbal treatments claim to have no side effects, I have found that in many cases, this is untrue.   Read more about Provillus  and its benefit, limitation, and potential side effects.

Other treatments exist for your condition that may be worth discussing with a dermatologist.   As far as aromatherapy is concerned, it may work nicely as a stress reliever, but I wouldn’t count on it to stimulate [tag]hair growth[/tag].
