    Of all of the products / treatments, have you tried Nioxin? I'm a 39 yr old female and am thinning. I've just started to use it, so, the jury's out on if this is going to work for me. They say over 50% of people that use Nioxin see a differnce. And it promotes growth versus plumping up your hair :) . Start with the starter kit that's appropriate for your hair type. Good luck. If you've tried Nioxin already and it didn't work... lessens my hopes that I'll see growth.

    Thank- you so much for your quick reply. I really do appreciate it, you must know how despairing it is to lose your hair. The appearance and self esteem vanish with every strand, I think it's one of the worse things that can happen to a women. I will try Nioxin first thing tomorrow. Thank's heaps.

    Well I am 35 and a few years back because of tons of stess I started to thin rapidly around the top of my forehead. I also was very distressed about it . I used rogain for women and after about 6 weeks a lot grew back . The scary thing about that is though that when you first use it , it will make more hair fall out before growing new hair back . Anyway that worked for me. My hair isn't 100% back to normal but it is good enough where I don't feel so badly about it . People said that you have to continue using it or your hair will start falling out again but I stopped last year and my hair is still there. Could it be that you ave a somewhat stressfull situation going on . Stress can do crazy damage to everything in your body . Anyway , hope I helped.

    Hi misskobe thank's for your quick and kind response, it's amazing what stress can do to your entire body, I will give it a shot, and I'm happy that you have an acceptable head of hair again. Thank's again.
