It fell out during the shower, at first in small quantities, then more and more. I could see a space forming on the top of my skull. Then the top of my forehead started to gradually thin out.<\/p>\n<p>My first reflex was to rush to the supermarkets to buy all sorts of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.reead.com\/en\/men-hair-loss\/\" data-wpil-monitor-id=\"20\">hair loss products<\/a>. Only, these products didn&#8217;t have any effect. Their composition didn&#8217;t work for me either. Scalp itching and dandruff, that&#8217;s all I managed to get!<\/p>\n<p>I decided to talk to a dermatologist. He reassured me that hair loss is a normal phenomenon and that there are better products than the ones I had already tried.<\/p>\n<p>He also warned me that their effectiveness depended on each person&#8217;s body and especially on the stage of the loss. Some patients have visible results quickly, while on others, the substance has little or no effect.<\/p>\n<p>After analyzing the causes of hair loss, he or she may prescribe one of the following medications.<\/p>\n<h3>Propecia or its generic Finasteride<\/h3>\n<p>This pill has been around for a long time and many men take it daily in a 1 mg dose to slow, stop or promote hair growth. Again, it depends on the stage of your baldness and especially on your body.<\/p>\n<p>Beware, it has been reported as a side effect of psychiatric conditions in some patients&#8230; personally for almost 18 years that I have been taking it, I have never had any adverse effects.<\/p>\n<p>This medication has helped to stop my own hair loss, I have been taking it for over 15 years every morning but has not contributed to the regrowth of fallen hair.<\/p>\n<h3>Minoxidil 5% spray to be applied to the scalp and hair.<\/h3>\n<p>After daily use, this spray is supposed to stimulate keratinocytes in vitro and in vivo and promote hair growth in men suffering from androgenetic alopecia.<\/p>\n<p>I had used it for 6 months without any results unfortunately.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"wp-embedded-content\" data-secret=\"N6nNJVHoF9\"><p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.reead.com\/en\/minoxidil-hair-regrowth-261522024\/\">Minoxidil: does it work or not for hair regrowth?<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-embedded-content\" sandbox=\"allow-scripts\" security=\"restricted\" style=\"position: absolute; visibility: hidden;\" title=\"&#8220;Minoxidil: does it work or not for hair regrowth?&#8221; &#8212; Reead&#039;s blog\" src=\"https:\/\/www.reead.com\/en\/minoxidil-hair-regrowth-261522024\/embed\/#?secret=uFESBUOe4e#?secret=N6nNJVHoF9\" data-secret=\"N6nNJVHoF9\" width=\"600\" height=\"338\" frameborder=\"0\" marginwidth=\"0\" marginheight=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<h2>How to densify hair that falls out?<\/h2>\n<p>The dermatologist informed me about the need to densify my hair in case the treatment had no effect.<\/p>\n<p>He gave me several pieces of advice, which you don&#8217;t always think about. I&#8217;ve made a list to help you.<\/p>\n<h3>Densifying shampoos<\/h3>\n<p>Have a healthy lifestyle, with an adapted diet. Vitamins A, B and E, iron and zinc should be favoured. It reinforces their vigour and volume. Take dietary supplements of keratin, a protein that densifies nails and hair. Do not use a hair dryer. Heat damages them and contributes to their fragility. For example, there are densifying or vitamin-rich shampoos and other <a href=\"https:\/\/www.reead.com\/en\/best-hair-loss-shampoos-men-169432021\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>hair loss shampoos<\/strong><\/a> you can use.<\/p>\n<h3>Micropigmentation to avoid the need for a graft<\/h3>\n<p>As a last resort, micropigmentation can be used. This technique is a non-definitive tattoo of the scalp that gives the illusion of hair on bald areas.<\/p>\n<p>You can also resort to it if you have decided to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.reead.com\/en\/shave-head-yourself-142542020\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">shave your head<\/a> and fill in the bald areas with this deceptive visual effect which, even without hair, will not make you feel as if you have baldness.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"kk-star-ratings kksr-auto kksr-align-left kksr-valign-bottom\"\n    data-payload='{&quot;align&quot;:&quot;left&quot;,&quot;id&quot;:&quot;14385&quot;,&quot;slug&quot;:&quot;default&quot;,&quot;valign&quot;:&quot;bottom&quot;,&quot;ignore&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;reference&quot;:&quot;auto&quot;,&quot;class&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;count&quot;:&quot;7&quot;,&quot;legendonly&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;readonly&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;score&quot;:&quot;5&quot;,&quot;starsonly&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;best&quot;:&quot;5&quot;,&quot;gap&quot;:&quot;4&quot;,&quot;greet&quot;:&quot;Rate this post&quot;,&quot;legend&quot;:&quot;5\\\/5 - (7 votes)&quot;,&quot;size&quot;:&quot;24&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;What to do in case of hair loss when you are a man?&quot;,&quot;width&quot;:&quot;138&quot;,&quot;_legend&quot;:&quot;{score}\\\/{best} - ({count} {votes})&quot;,&quot;font_factor&quot;:&quot;1.25&quot;}'>\n            \n<div class=\"kksr-stars\">\n    \n<div class=\"kksr-stars-inactive\">\n            <div class=\"kksr-star\" data-star=\"1\" style=\"padding-right: 4px\">\n            \n\n<div class=\"kksr-icon\" style=\"width: 24px;
