Can women use the same hair loss products as men?
Some hair loss treatments designed for men include ingredients that may be harmful to women. Products which include higher percentages of active ingredients such as 5% Minoxidil® and Rogaine® are not approved for women. Propecia®, a prescription drug for men, inhibits the conversion of Testosterone to DHT; therefore, it is not approved for women. Therapro’s “W” Distinctively Feminine products, including the proprietary Femmigen® complex, were researched and developed by dermatological scientists in FDA approved laboratories. Therapro’s “W” solutions were formulated for the special needs of women experiencing early onset and advanced femal androgen alopecia.
