again: HAIR TRANSPLANTS work.

also: minoxidil works by increasing the levels of prostaglandin E2 which we now know is good for hair.

again....hair transplants work because it takes time for DHT to build up in the hair follicle on top of that you create a wound that allow for more blood flow (please dont carve up your heads). Not to mention that we dont know how long or how well hair transplants work nor is there good evidence they all work in fact many people if not most have less then desirable results.

Also not even the creators of the drug minoxidil argue that their product is a vasodilator it was originally created to help blood pressure in the 80's. I don't know how you ignore these links but whatever you want to believe bro.

Minoxidil was first used exclusively as an oral drug (with the trade name 'Loniten') to treat high blood pressure. However, it was discovered to have an interesting side effect: Minoxidil may cause increased growth or darkening of fine body hairs, or in some cases, significant hair growth.
it was already established that minoxidil is safe to use to lower blood pressure so what they did is made a topical version of it to use as a hair growth treatment.....
they themselves didn't know how or why it works for growing hair but it does so they decided to market it for hair growth too.

btw Prostaglandin E2 IS a vasodilator....

What are you arguing then. We know from the only study Measuring blood flow in balding areas that blood flow is decreased. We know men without hair loss have a SIGNIFICANT more blood flow. So then what are you really arguing. And if it controls what dilates blood vessels then how is that any different then what I said. I understand one thing for sure. In my observations people with tight scalps usually also have awkward shaped heads and those people lose their hair. I have trained my self on this soo much that we could take 1000 people shave all their heads skin bald so I could not tell who was or wasn't balding and each time I would be able to tell who is going to or already has just based on the tightness of there scalp.
