A caffeine complex has been scientifically shown to help stem hair loss in females, providing hope for millions of women suffering from what was once widely believed to be an exclusively male problem.
Millions of women the world over lose hair after menopause, largely due to decreasing estrogen which protects roots against the male hormone, testosterone. After menopause, estrogen levels drop and the impact of testosterone increases, sometimes resulting in a receding hair line, hair becoming thinner and hair falling out prematurely.
"Most women hit a psychological low when they notice increased hair loss," said adjunct professor Dr Gerhard Lutz of Jena University, Germany. "Depression, introversion and embarrassment are sometimes the consequences."
The discovery is impacting positively on thousands of women in Europe who have discovered the effects of using Plantur39 Phyto-Caffeine Shampoo, according to Dr Wolff.
Prior to launching, the products were tested at the Clinic for Dermatology and Dermatological Allergology at Friedrich Schiller University, Jena, and by adjunct professor Dr Gerhard Lutz. Test subjects in both instances noticed a significant reduction in hair loss.
Test subjects between the ages of 39 and 60 who suffered from androgenetic or diffuse hair loss, regularly used Plantur 39 Caffeine Tonic and, after four months, two-thirds of the test subjects noticed a significant reduction in hair loss. The test subjects also noticed a drop in scalp itch, dandruff and oily scalp.
The scientists concluded that, dermatologically, Plantur 39 products can be recommended for patients with androgenetic hair loss.
