MPB was cured 40 years ago

[StressedToTheBald]

It hasn't been cured because billions are made each year on propecia, minoxidil and similar pointless and quasi-proven medical solutions. Its only in the interest of us bald people for the cure to be developed.. sadly, its in no one elses interest.

you are so dumb...
Propecia and Minoxidil are made by TWO COMPANIES. Most of the profits from all of the hair treatments go to those TWO COMPANIES.
OTHER COMPANIES are trying to get into this market and it would be in their best interest to come up with a BETTER PRODUCT so that people would start buying their product instead of those other two.
When those companies DO come up with a better product, they will start making billions too....

Why wouldn't other companies want to make money off of hair treatments?? Why!?!?

You're forgetting profit garnered by hair transplantation surgeons, who by all means aim to preserve the current state of affairs in the name of economic self-interest.

It is sad how misguided and misinformed you are.

There is no conspiracy. Well, maybe there is - but that conspiracy is from people like you who are trying to convince others that bogus "natural" treatments are valid treatments. From others like you who are trying to steer people away from proven treatments so they can waste their time, money and hair on bogus "natural" treatments that do not work, have never worked - and never will work... Now that is a conspiracy.

Hereditary hair loss is a natural and normal human trait. Trying to "cure" hereditary hair loss is like trying to "cure" blue eyes or blonde hair. You might as well put your efforts into stopping the world from turning - you will likely have much better luck.

Not all hair transplant surgeons are worried about cell based treatment. Many are just as excited as we are because they are in this to help people. Sure some are in it solely for the money but not all.

I do not believe cell based treatments will eliminate hair transplant surgery. Some surgery will still be needed. It will most certainly cut down on how much surgery is needed but it won't completely eliminate the need for surgery. The only way cell based treatment will eliminate the need for medication is if it can immunize hair follicles from the damaging effects of DHT.
