Will minoxidil works for my hairline ?

One general doubt that any hair loss is thinking about using Rogaine for hair loss ( minoxidil ) is if it will works for his hairline hair loss or only for the vertex .After all , is all just hair loss

the big myths that it only works for vertex hair loss have been around for to many decades , as many as minoxidil have for hair loss . But on 2009, during the The 17th Annual Scientific Meeting of the International Society of Hair Restoration Surgery and hair loss one of the speakers , the Dr. Ken Washenik, MD, PhD hair loss , coment the result of a brand new study for hair loss that compare the effectiveness of Minoxidil for hair loss applying in the vertex hair loss vs the hairline hair loss .

The clinical trial results for hair loss given for a 5% minoxidil solution were a great success rate of 54% at the vertex and a similar 51% at the hairline/temple for hair loss. The general common mith that topical minoxidil doesn't works on hairline hair loss was because the wording of the package for Rogaine hair loss, which says topical minoxidil is for 'growing hair at the vertex only'. This have an explanation , a very simple one , Upjohn did not include the statistics for hair line hair loss growth to the FDA hair loss , when it is applied for the approval. So, the FDA required Upjohn to state that Minoxidil is to be used to grow hair in the top.

the exact mechanisms of why rogaine stimulate hair growth and stop the hair loss is still not well know, Dr. Washenik gave us evidence that rogaine do the job like a vascular endothelial growth factor and is in this mode that stimulates prostaglandins, which it then will change the inflammatory response of hair loss.
