Hair loss is a very prevalent problem. It affects both men and women. What’s more is that hair loss can happen to a person at any age – particularly if the process is hereditary. Luckily, there is a wide variety of hair loss medications that people can choose from. There are some FDA-approved drugs that patients can use. There are also some hair transplant surgeries that they can opt. Wigs and some cosmetic products are also available. However, if you are experiencing hair loss and you want a natural way to regain your crowning glory, you should try some popular herbal medications.

Herbs as Hair Loss Medications…

Herbs are used for a wide variety of purposes. Often, such are used as spices for various recipes. Herbs can also be used for ornamental purposes. It can also be used in manufacturing perfumes. However, in most cases, herbs are used by people to treat various kinds of illnesses.

The primary reason why many people want to use herbs is the fact that such offers a more “natural” method. According to experts, people believe that herbs work through the utilization and development of the natural healing mechanisms of the human body. Herbs do not just treat the signs and symptoms of the condition. Rather, herbs directly target the specific cause of the problem in the patient’s body. In the case of hair loss conditions, there is some growing evidence that herbal remedies do really work for people who are growing bald.

1. Ginkgo Biloba

Gingko Biloba is a very popular herb used primarily for improving vitality. However, many also believe that this herb can improve blood circulation in the body. As such is there is increased blood flow to the brain and the skin, more nutrients can be transported to the hair follicles. As these follicles receive more nutrients, hair re-growth becomes quite possible. Herbalists point out that this drug should be taken thrice a day, with a dose of 120 mg to 160 mg.

2. Green Tea (Camellia Sinesis)

Herbalists believe that green tea contains catechins. These substances prevent the production and spread of 5-alpha-reductase, enzymes that can convert testosterone into DHT or dihydrotestosterone. As such, green tea can be effective in treating male pattern baldness especially if you drink several cups on a daily basis.

3. He Shou Wu (Polygonum Multiflorum)

This herbal medicine is also called “Fo-Ti”. A popular Chinese herb, this medicinal plan is used for reducing hair loss since the early years in China. These days however, this drug comes in the form of many commercial preparations such as teas, pills, and capsules.

4. Pygeum (Pygeum Africanum)

This herb is taken from the bark of the Evergreen plant. It pretty much works like the green tea with catechins. Although it is more popular as a treatment for prostate problems, many people now believe that it can maintain hormonal levels and therefore prevent the onset of male pattern baldness. If you want to use this herb, you can take them as pills or capsules in 60 mg to 500 mg doses.

5. Stinging Nettle (Urtica Diocia)

This herb is a traditional medication used for the prevention of hair loss. It usually works by stopping the conversion of testosterone into DHT. This herb often comes in the form of various medical preparations – pills or capsules. However, it should be taken as prescribed by a physician, with a dose of 50 mg to 100 mg everyday. Herbalists note that maximum efficiency of the stinging kettle can be achieved only when it is combined with other herbs such as pygeum and saw palmetto.
