I Broke the Mystery of Male Pattern Baldness Paperback – 10 Aug. 2014

I had early indications of balding since college but a year during my first job after graduate school chunks of hair would come off with a pull. I'm balding and I'm not even married yet!I became desperate to try anything to stop it. But my dad, a respected physician in our community, told me to be wary because most products do not really work while those that do are not very effective or have scary side effects.It was coincidental when I came across this book and thought it was expensive but bought it out of desperation. When I ask my dad to check if it had anything that can help he seemed hesitant at first but browsed a few pages and finally asked if he can take it with him to his clinic.Later that night, he said the author was very convincing. That made me smile. And that I should try it and follow the instructions to the letter. That made me excited!It's been a month since. What can I say? I not sure whether I will continue to lose hair over the long term but those chunks of hair that coming off definitely stopped. My hair fall is now normal.The book says reqrowth may be possible in some case but there is no assurance. Regardless, I will be perfectly happy with what I have.

it is a good read for anyone trying to get a different perspective on hairloss other than the heredetary explanation, as there is more to the story. Mercado touches on another plausible contributant to male pattern baldness. it was refreshing to hear this. however, i think there is even more to it than he touced in this book, which is why i deducted one star.
