/* Double action (Anti-androgen + Vasodilator) */
'''What is the problem with using only Anti-androgen therapy?'''
* Anti-androgen is not effective in addressing the issue of vasocontriction around hair follicles due to sebum oil build up.
* Anti-androgen only prevent prevents binding of DHT to androgen receptors. However, the effects of improper oxygen and nutrient supply to the brain due to vasocontriction still remains and gradually causes hair loss.
'''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 vasodilators (or Minoxidil) does do not block the harmful effects of DHT in the scalp and hair follicles. * Vasodilators or Minoxidil simply dilates dilate blood vessels in the scalp. However, the harmful DHT is still being gets produced in the body and still getting into , enters the scalp and hair follicles and causing eventual hair loss.
'''How is the combination of Anti-androgens and Vasodilator (or Minoxidil) effective?'''
* Anti-androgens target the problem of DHT binding to androgen receptors and prevents follicle miniaturization.
* Vasodilators like Minoxidil causes cause vasodilation and therefore improves improve supply of oxygen and nutrients to the hair follicle and roots.
* Combination therapy therefore proves to be much more effective than individual therapy.
