    Default Does Minoxidil really work?

    Hello all, new person here with some generic questions.

    From what I gather, hair loss occurs from a build up in DHT which starves the hair follicle. Minoxidil apparently increases blood circulation to the hair follicles which allows the hair to grow again. However, doesn't more blood = more DHT also getting to the hair follicle and eventually you'll be back where you started?

    How are the success rates from people using only Minoxidil to help with hair loss?

    A side question so as not to start a second thread: are there any natural vitamins/supplements that help promote hair growth and health?
