With the advances in stem cell technology and genetic science at Ukmedix News we are pretty sure that some time over the next ten years the problem of male pattern baldness will be history. Recently scientists in Berlin were able to grow artificial hair follicles with the use of animal stem cells and other scientists have been pursuing genetic research projects which should unlock the code as to why some men suffer from male pattern baldness and others do not.

However, if you are suffering from male pattern baldness now and you want to do something about it you should not wait in hope for a scientific breakthrough and should instead concentrate on existing hair loss remedies. If you do wait the chances are you'll be completely bald by the time the genetic or stem cell treatment is available.
At present the most effective treatment for male pattern baldness is the hair loss drug Propecia made by the drug company Merck. This drug has shown in independent clinical tests to have a positive effect on around 90% of users and in some cases it doesn't just stop hair loss but even enables regrowth of hair.
If we had to give you one single bit of advice at Ukmedix News regarding male pattern baldness it would be to do something about it immediately. The longer you wait for the less effective any treatment will be and it really is a case of a stitch in time saves nine.
Men we have spoken to that Ukmedix News speak about the great sense of relief when they see the visible effects of the Propecia drug and it allows them to get on with their lives without worrying about their hair loss every day. Hair loss should not be underestimated as a medical condition not because it means that there's anything wrong with you, but because it can cause such strong feelings of depression and anxiety.
