Uh, no, it's not. That's why the M in MPB stands for male.

yes because males lose hair in a different pattern than women.... MPB, FPB - all lose hair for the same reason.
The only one type of hair loss that's different from all others is ALOPECIA AREATA.

And more importantly HSC WORKS on MPB
Gmonasco is extremely pessimistic.

THE ONLY problem I have with this:
why so many injections? :confused: Couldn't they just up the dose? It's great that it works but it would take 1000+ injections to boost every single spot on your head

You could just have a mature hairline.
Most guys I know with bald spots are noticeably thinning prior to developing one.
I would say that if you are a NW2 by your mid twenties, and are not shedding much, your hair will hold out until this comes out. Which should be 2016 MAX.

Why are you always so negative? This is really exciting news! Their results are even better than they were in the pilot study, and I'm sure they'll probably keep on improving.
Even if all it does is stimulate resting follicles, that's freaking amazing. For people with bald scalps, it could get some of their hair back, and for people with thinning it could possibly be full recovery.
Do you not want them to succeed or something?

And that difference is crucial. Women tend to lose hair through overall thinning; men tend to lose hair through hairline recession and crown balding. If you've got a treatment that revitalizes miniaturized hair, therefore, it's likely going to be much more effective for women, who still have hair everywhere, than for denuded areas of the male scalp.
