I don't know what your problem with zeek is but hairloss hasn't made leaps and bounds in a long time. There is no set way to stop hairloss. There are options out there and everyone reacts different. The fact is there is no one way to stop hairloss and regrowth hair. Unfortunately most hairloss meds haven't shown any consistency.
I have been reading this in the internet for the last 10 years and I slowly become paranoid, really. I plan to increase my minoxidil dosage from 5% to 6% to have better sleep.
You should take into consideration that all the unhappy guys screaming on hair loss forums may not be representative for the whole male population using anti-hair loss products. They are disproportionately recruited from the groups that don't react to these medications well. Furthermore, the combination of minoxidil with finasteride proved to be very effective in the long run.

We also have stronger versions of minoxidil on the market (up to 15%), so you can always upgrade it, when you need.
My experience may not be fully representative for the majority of users, I may simply react to medications very well, but several years ago I met a guy who had been on 2% minoxidil since early 90's. You can also find many similar pieces of experience in the internat: People have been taking minoxidil for about 10 years and it still works well. Dr. Lee, the producer of Xandrox, has been taking minoxidil for 22 years.
So I am not the only one in this world and I really think that all the unsuccessful stories must be taken witn "a grain of salt". This also concerns some scientific studies showing that after several years, hair loss reportedly continues at the same rate like before. For Goodness sake, I have comfortably kept my hair with 2% minoxidil from 1997 to 2008, and when I started to use 5% minox in summer 2008 (primarily due to financial reasons), it still worked better than 2% minox in 1997!
Thus, contrary to your beliefs, I think that for the average user, it is virtually impossible to lose hair with all the medications we now have. Naturally, the average user must be well-informed and sufficiently intelligent. Considering the level of breathtaking ignorance that I sometimes observe on internet forums, it is no wonder that the percentage of balding men in the population doesn't decrease much. Many people still have no idea that some cure has already been developed!
