The female pattern alopecia is generally considered to be caused by hereditary factors and, therefore, not amenable to treatment. It is asserted, however, that any female who is afflicted by this type of alopecia need not feel despair, for this type of premature loss of hair affects, in women, only the crown and can be successfully concealed with the help of a wig. This conclusion, in our opinion, does not carry conviction. For there is no proof that any disease which is due to a hereditary factor can never be cured by some newly invented means. Besides, it is irrelevant whether the defect is one that can be concealed from the public or not.



Some people are of the opinion that female hair loss is due to some endocrine disorder. In this connection, the female sex hormones come into the center of attention. However, a woman must be cautious about meddling with any of her estrogens. For she would run the risk of getting carcinoma if she should do that. There is another opinion which is also difficult to comply with. Some people say that a female may use her brain too strenuously, thus concentrating the blood of the upper part of her head in the brain and decreasing correspondingly the blood in her scalp. Such an uneven state of blood distribution will in the long run cause the hair to fall off because the hair follicles are short of nourishment. The implication of this opinion is quite obvious. A woman should not be an intellectual worker. No self-respecting female will agree with this idea.

A considerable number of people, including some physicians, entertain the opinion that female alopecia is caused by a lack of proper balance in nutrition. Proteins, vitamins and minerals are all necessary in one's diet. Yet too much vitamin A and fat in the diet will make one lose hair. If this idea is correct, a woman will need to refrain from eating fish and meat. In short, she had better become a vegetarian in her dietary habit. How can this be carried out?

In fact, the female who has lost part of her hair does not need to be a vegetarian in her diet. She should only be a vegetarian in medication. Instead of using chemical lotions she can apply to her scalp the Chinese herbal lotion, namely the Female-use Evergreen hair regenerator. The greatest advantage of this version of Evergreen hair regenerator is that it is completely herbal, or vegetable, in origin, and that when it penetrates into the scalp, it will not only revitalize the inactive or decayed hair follicles but also nourish and strengthen all other organisms with which it inevitably will come into contact. Alopecia is generally due to the inactivity of the follicles. The patient may hope that this state of inactivity is only temporary and will soon be over. But there is no means of knowing how long the disturbance will last, or whether or not it will remain so for ever. It will be unwise to wait and see. She must give the failing follicles some more nourishment to invigorate or revive them so that they will not perish.
