Episode Description:
If your hair is thinning, you've been given two options: one drug you rub on forever, and one many men quietly quit over what it did in the bedroom. But "not FDA approved" usually means nobody could patent it, not that it doesn't work. Dr. G walks through seven treatments with real evidence behind them, including one that went head to head with minoxidil and tied, with less scalp itching.
He covers the plant extract that works on the same hormone as the drug, the red light that feeds the follicle, the blood marker your doctor probably skipped, the vitamin that flips a resting follicle back on, the mineral that builds the hair itself, the oil that matched minoxidil over six months, and the stress root nobody connects to their hairline.
Most people need two or three of these together, because each one does a different job.
Your hair isn't falling because your body is broken. It's falling because your body is trying to tell you something.
