HEREDITARY HAIR LOSS      ABOUT REGAINE ^®

Every person is different, and so is the way they react to hair loss.

Some men simply accept that their hairline is receding. But for some it can be a difficult issue.

Studies have shown that hereditary hair loss - particularly if it starts at a relatively early age - can affect self-confidence and self-esteem. Often sufferers go into denial, then panic at the negative perceptions of baldness (old, unmanly and unsexy). It's also common for them to become angry at having what seems like an affliction.

In extreme cases, some men become depressed and avoid occasions that will particularly expose their hair loss.
