Men, in particular, look much older than their biological age when they begin to bald.
Contrary to what many people think, pattern balding in men isn’t only for men of an “advanced” age. There are young men in their late teenage years and early twenties who are unfortunate enough to start experiencing pattern balding.
There are very many products in the market that claim to regrow your hair. Most of these have the dual purpose of rejuvenating your hair. They come in form of shampoos, conditioners, treatment formulas and many more.
Lipogaine is one such product. One of their products that is specifically formulated for men is called Lipogaine For Men: Intensive Treatment and Complete Solution for Hair Loss.

As per the manufacturers, Lipogaine for men is an intensive treatment and complete solution for thinning hair. It claims to do so in three ways.
- By stimulating hair growth
- By reducing DHT levels
- By providing hair follicle nutrients
There are a number of causes of hair loss in men. The most common one is Androgenic alopecia or more commonly, Pattern Baldness. By the age of 50 years old, 50% of the population of men will have been affected by pattern baldness in their own specific way.
Causes of Pattern Baldness
Genes
Yap! Your genes! If you come from a line of balding men, you can be sure their looks or brains are not the only things you’ll inherit. You get their pattern balding too.
Hormones
Some men have a higher number of androgen receptors on each hair follicle. The hair follicle will also have a higher sensitivity than normal to androgen and this will result in more of a pronounced hair loss effect.
A higher proportion of the DHT to testosterone hormones also speeds up the hair loss process in men. It does this by breaking down and interfering with the cycle of your hair growth. It will slow it down.
When the hair cycle has been interfered with there are longer periods when your hair is in the resting phase. This means that it isn’t growing during this period. This causes your hair to thin out and weaken. These brittle hairs then fall out, leaving you bald in the affected area.
Infections
Scalp infections such as dandruff and other fungal infections could also be responsible for pattern balding.
Nutritional Disorders
Lack of certain nutrients in your body or their presence in insufficient amounts could contribute to pattern balding.
Disease and Medication
More serious causes of pattern balding could be the result of illnesses such as cancer, thyroid conditions or even anabolic steroids.
There are medications that are known to have hair loss listed as one of the side effects.
Cuticle Damage
This is the protective layer that every single strand of hair has. It plays two crucial roles. One is the role of shielding your hair from environmental damage. The second role the cuticle layer plays is that of locking in moisture and oils. When this layer is damaged for one reason or the other, it will separate and peel away. This action leaves it compromised and as a result, oil and moisture are allowed to escape, leaving your hair dry and prone to pattern balding.

Side Effects
Most of the side effects of Lipogaine for men are attributed to the presence of minoxidil or propylene glycol in the formula. They include
Scalp Redness
The shampoo formula contains minoxidilas one of its ingeredients. it can sometimes result in reddening of the scalp. This isn’t anything to worry about though because it usually goes away about one hour after shampooing.
Increased Hair Shedding
This is also no cause for alarm. On the contrary, it should be taken as a good sign. A sign that the formula is working. Sounds strange, right? Let me explain. When hair is too damaged and weak or it is already dead, using the shampoo helps get rid of this type of hair. Hair that is too far gone to be repaired. What happens instead is that it falls of allowing stronger hair to grow in is stead.
There is cause for worry only if this shedding continues after 3 weeks to a month of using the shampoo. At this point, immediately discontinue use of the product and visit your doctor.
An Itchy Scalp
Again, not a cause for alarm.
Your scalp isn’t used to this product. For some there is itchiness of the scalp but this shouldn’t worry you at all. Just give yourself some time to adapt to the new shampoo. It contains a potent blend of purifying ingeridients that need some getting used to.
If this condition doesn’t improve with time, stop using the shampoo immediately and consult your doctor.
Other side effects that are really just a by-product or counter effect of those listed above are flaking, swelling or tenderness of the scalp and Dry hair.
It is advisable to pre-test the effects of the formula on your skin by applying a small amount to the inner part of your elbow. If experience any of these symptoms, then this product isn’t for you.
In the event that you experience one or more of these symptoms after a number of uses, discontinue use.

If you are fed up of losing your hair and you have decided that you want to reverse your pattern balding, there are two things I always advise.
First of all, do some serious research. Read about various products available in the market. Carefully look at the ingredients and their effects before settling on a particular product.
Secondly, if you have a disease that requires you to take medication daily, like blood pressure or diabetes, seek medical advice from your doctor.
There are many positive reviews out there by users claiming to have seen positive results after using Lipogaine for men. The results, especially for regrowth, may be very gradual and seen after a number of months not less than six, but it does work.
A more common opinion among these users is that the thickness and volume of their hair improved almost immediately. Going by that, we can say the rejuvenation aspect definitely works.
