• Trump Rolls Back Access To free Birth Control – Women With thinning Hair Might Consider Thanking Him

    The “pill” suppresses ovulation by the combined actions of the hormones estrogen and progestin or in some cases progestin alone. According to The American Hair loss Association and most hair loss experts, women who are predisposed to androgenic alopecia or common female pattern hair loss can be hypersensitive to the hormonal changes taking place while on the pill or other hormonal forms of birth control. These changes can trigger the early onset of genetic hair loss which can occur while on the pill or several weeks or months after stopping the pill. Once that trigger is switched on, it is might not be able to be switched off. If you ever wondered why women’s hair loss seems more prevalent today than in any other time in history, take a close look at the side effects of these hormonal medications and you might find the answer.

  • President Trump Allegedly Takes Propecia, But As With All Medications, It’s Not For Everyone

    The anecdotal incidence of the phenomenon known as post-finasteride syndrome (PFS) seems to be receiving more attention in the mainstream media than ever before, since it’s been revealed that President Trump is being prescribed the hair loss drug by his personal physician. The most commonly reported persistent side effects of finasteride are loss of libido, erectile dysfunction, depression, suicidal ideation, anxiety, panic attacks, penile shrinkage, gynecomastia, muscle atrophy, cognitive impairment and insomnia.

    Spencer Kobren and Joe Tillman both long time finasteride users speak with Tom, a physician who has been suffering with many of the adverse side effects described by those who believe they are victims of PFS.

    To provide some perspective, Dr. Richard Hoffman, a physician who was a site investigator in the original clinical trials for finasteride and who also happens to be a patient advocate, who has taken on the role of exposing the inflated claims of drug and device companies for years, has a different take on this relatively new phenomenon or drug induced anomaly.

    “The JAMA Dermatologymeta-analysis did not find any evidence for a life-altering impact of finasteride, just that studies consistently failed to provide sufficient data to adequately characterize the potential harms of the drug. And yet the media coverage of the topic, based on these individual stories, presents an extremely dire portrait.”
