This is an interesting study; however, although I don’t want to be a snob, a proper study should be done from a recognized academic institution that would lend credibility to this study. The link does not show this, but some of the science is there. Using peppermint oil certainly will not hurt you if you try it. I would love to hear some people’s response to their use of it reported back here.

This study proves that peppermint oil is more effective than minoxidil, can you guys tell me why it isn’t? from tressless

The drug melatonin, a potent antioxidant and growth modulator, was identified as a promising candidate for the topical treatment of hair loss. The study was conducted in 2003 at the Forenap Centre Hospitalier in Rouffach, France. The drug was found to be well tolerated. Approximately 80% of people found that it reduced hair loss during the short 90 day trial. The study concluded that there was a positive effect of melatonin on hair growth in patients with AGA. The authors recommended more studies have to be done to confirm the benefits for both short and long term hair loss treatment. The drug melatonin may behave similar to a topical drug which was marketed by a French pharmaceutical company which was known as a “morning after” abortion pill (as it was/is known and marketed some 20 years ago) and no longer on the market. A topical form of melatonin is commercialized in Spain (a topical solution called Lambdapil solution) but according to a colleague there, it is weak and no better than minoxidil.

This solution has been utilized in mice for more than 20 years. Some human work has been done but as of late, we have not seen successful hair growth in humans from this approach. Nevertheless, worth viewing if you don’t know much about stem cell research and hair growth
