'''What is the problem with using only Vasodilator (or Minoxidil only) therapy?'''
* Vasodilator or Minoxidil-based products are generally not effective in stopping hair loss as minoxidil does not block the harmful effects of DHT in the scalp and hair follicles. * Vasodilators or Minoxidil simply dilates blood vessels in the scalp. However, the harmful DHT is still being produced in the body and still getting into the scalp and hair follicles and causing eventual hair loss.
'''How is the combination of Anti-androgens and Vasodilator (or Minoxidil) effective?'''
