Quitting Smoking and hair loss impact.

If Rogaine works by increasing the blood supply to follicles, then why do many people seem to discredit the idea that smoking causes hairloss?

I am currently a Norwood 1 with some very, very slight thinning at the crown and some slight thinning at the temples. I used to smoke a **** load of weed and cigarettes. I recently quit smoking weed and I'm trying to cut out cigarettes. Whenever I have quit them both in the past, however, I noticed that my erections are ten times stronger, my body looks healthier, my hair doesn't come out at all when I brush it, and I also feel the blood pumping through my temples and crown more (where my hairloss is). I was a particularly heavy smoker and I am now 31 years old.

I haven't been quit from either long enough to sufficiently test whether it will regrow hair at some slightly thinning spots, but considering how Rogaine is thought to work, then could it not be reasonable to imply that quitting smoking and aerobic exercise will have a similar effect to that of Rogaine?

Smoking is correlated with hair loss, but people seem to want a single villain before they are satisfied. The truth is more likely that bad hair loss is a cascade of many things.

To say that people with hairloss are satisfied of anything would be a gross exaggeration...
