Dihydrotestosterone (DHT) has been directly linked to androgenetic alopecia - a type of hair loss that can affect both men and women. Saw palmetto (along with other active ingredients used in these products) is a DHT inhibitor. DHT inhibitors are developed to block DHT production which may cause androgenetic alopecia to slow down. |
Given that DHT inhibitors might be able to arrest this condition as soon as you first notice it, all these products could also be considered as hair loss prevention products.

** Note - Procerin states that its active ingredients are aimed specifically for men, whereas Crinagen, HairGenesis, Nisim and Revivogen all state that their products are suitable for both men and women. What I find interesting about this is that, all these saw palmetto hair loss products (including Procerin) have very similar ingredients. As well as Saw palmetto, they all combine active ingredients taken from the following list:
Zinc (sulphate or acetate)
B vitamins (e.g., Biotin and vitamin B6)
Fatty acids (e.g., Omega 3 and 6)
Azelaic acid
Nettle extract
Grapeseed (Proanthocyanidins) extract
Therefore, it should follow that many of Procerin’s ingredients will also be of benefit to women with androgenetic alopecia (even though these products are promoted specifically for men).

A Top Hair Loss Remedy?
All these DHT hair loss products use topical lotions, shampoos, supplements or a combination to reduce the concentration within your scalp of DHT - a substance known to be connected with androgenetic alopecia.
This is the same type of hair loss I suffered from, but I preferred to use a more hands-on approach instead. The techniques I used were safe, natural, needed no lotions or pills, and produced very good results as you can see for yourself: Click Here.
