I don't know if posted this or it got deleted, but here is what I usually post for hair loss problems.
I recommend checking out
Invalid Link Removed
They have lots of good articles, a forum, feedback from member son various methods of what hair loss treatments work and what don't.
My hairline is starting to recede and I've been using a product called
Invalid Link Removed. It has lots of great ingredients that inhibit DHT production at the scalp, including saw palmetto, Pygem, Nettle extract, and they also include
Invalid Link Removed which has been shown to block DHT at the receptor site in the scalp. There is also biotin in it of course, which is another supplement you should be taking for hair loss (although the studies are scant).

They also make a very good conditioner called
Invalid Link Removed. It has an ingredient in it called
Invalid Link Removed which has been shown to reduce hair loss and possibility even regrow it. Some people use it on their own, and some people combine it with minoxidil.

I use both the shampoo and conditioner daily. I combine the shampoo with another shampoo called
Invalid Link Removed. It has some
Invalid Link Removed in it. This helps force the old skin to peel off and regenerate new skin, helping the follicles stay clean and free of debris. Dr. Lee who used to run minoxidil.com (before they f#$king FDA shut him down) sold a formula very similar to this. It was Nizoral and Salicyclic acid as a shampoo.
There is another ingredient called azelaic acid which can block the DHT receptor at the scalp. I found a couple options for this.
Invalid Link Removed nightly before bed. There is a product called
Invalid Link Removed which has azelaic acid in it. They also sell
Invalid Link Removed[/B]Azelaic Topical Acid 10%, but it's made for skin and reducing acne. However, you could of course apply it to your scalp too.
Hair Restoration Laboratories Maximum Hair Thickening Serum
You can also buy some topical spironolactone from Hairlosstalk. It's a greasy formula and it stinks, so I really don't like using it. Good ole Dr. Lee used to make it into a liquid that was much more easy to apply.
Finally, I take
Invalid Link Removed. It has tons of ingredients to help with hair loss including saw palmetto, beta sitosterol, Stinging Nettle (Urtica dioica), Pumpkin Seed Oil and lots of other good stuff which will work internally to help slow hair loss.
Btw, if you want to check out Dr. Lee's old page, it's still the wayback machine and has some very good articles.

Beyond that, the only rx drugs that can regrow hair are
Invalid Link Removed, which you have to apply daily for the rest of your life as well as Propecia (finasteride). However, I recently came across this thread entitled
Invalid Link Removed so take that into consideration before deciding to take that.
I'm going to be starting
Invalid Link Removed. They take your blood and put it through a centrifuge and try and get the growth factors in the blood to cause the hair to regrow. It's probably the closest thing to stem cell therapy you can do now.
