learn procapil

Want to stop hormonal hair loss without touching your hormone levels? Procapil could block the enzyme doing the damage. Procapil's supplier describes it as inhibiting 5-alpha reductase at the scalp without changing hormone levels, but the published support is cell and animal work plus one small human study of a caffeine-plus-Procapil formula. It is a cosmetic ingredient, not an approved hair-loss treatment, and no trial has compared it with finasteride or minoxidil.
