63-Year-Old HISTORY of the Best Kept Secret to Growing Long Hair FAST (Minoxidil Documentary)

This hair loss treatment, was initially developed by the Upjohn Company in the 1960s as a potential ulcer and hypertension cure. During clinical trials, researchers discovered that this drug had an UNEXPECTED side effect - it could promote hair growth. In the 1970s, Dr. Guinter Kahn and Dr. Paul Grant, two researchers at the University of Colorado, recognized hair grower drug potential as a hair loss treatment. They SECRETLY obtained the drug, created a topical solution, and began testing it on themselves and a few volunteers. After seeing promising results, they shared their findings with Upjohn, who filed a patent for the use of minoxidil as a hair growth aid. However, Upjohn also reported Kahn and Grant to the U.S. FDA for conducting unauthorized human experimentation. For several years, Upjohn appeared to WITHHOLD INFORMATION about this drug hair-growing properties, potentially to maintain a serious image and avoid association with then-disreputable hair growth industry. In 1980, a case report in a medical journal exposed this drug hair-growing side effect to the medical community. Upjohn then shifted its focus to exploring topical serum for hair growth, and in 1988, the U.S. FDA APPROVED it for prescription use under the name Rogaine. This video also discusses HOW this hair loss treatment works to regrow hair, the DIFFERENCES in hair loss patterns between men and women, and the CONTROVERSY over pricing of hair foam products based on sex. It highlights the ACCIDENTAL DISCOVERY of minoxidil's hair growth properties and the perseverance of Kahn and Grant in bringing this breakthrough treatment to the public.
