I Watched My Mother Lose Her Hair During Menopause, Now Her Routine Broke Records In a Clinical Study
The first non-drug clinical trial on menopausal women just delivered the fastest hair regrowth results ever recorded. Here's how the new milestone in hair loss history unfolded — and how to get the same routine.

Why I Ran a Study That No One Else Would
I watched my own mother lose her hair during menopause.
She tried 11 different treatments. Minoxidil. Supplements. Shampoos. Prescriptions from specialists I personally knew. Nothing worked.
As a Stanford-trained dermatologist, I had access to everything — every treatment, every specialist, every cutting-edge therapy available. And still nothing.
I started talking to colleagues, hairdressers, other specialists. The story was identical everywhere: women over 40 with thinning hair, cycling through treatments, seeing minimal results.
That's when I realized the problem wasn't access. It was approach.
Every solution targeted follicles. Stimulate them. Block DHT from attacking them. Feed them nutrients.
But the follicles weren't broken.
The scalp tissue was.
During menopause, your scalp ages up to 10 times faster than your face. By 50, most women have scalp tissue that functions like it belongs on a 100-year-old.
All the failures made sense, aged tissue just can't support normal hair growth — it can't anchor follicles, deliver nutrients, or maintain the structure hair needs to thrive.
I started calling this PASS — Prematurely Aging Scalp Syndrome. And it explained why nothing worked for my mother. Why nothing worked for millions of women.
So I developed a routine designed to reverse scalp aging and gave it to my mum.
Within months, her transformation was incredible — hair thicker and stronger than she'd had in years.
But even in her joy, she couldn't stop thinking about other women who were struggling like she was. "I know exactly what they're going through," she told me. "The shame, the frustration. They need to know about this.''
I knew she was right. Her support gave me the confidence to do something unprecedented...
I put a natural menopausal hair loss treatment through a study with the same medical rigor typically reserved for prescription drugs.
How We Tested It
Everything was conducted at an independent third-party lab, not my own clinic. This was crucial because we needed a neutral facility with no stake in the results to ensure complete objectivity.
We enrolled 43 menopausal women with confirmed hair loss and had dermatologist oversight at every single visit.
Women shampooed at the lab in special showers designed to capture every strand that fell (picture above).
Researchers collected those hairs, dried them for 48 to 72 hours, then counted them by hand. One by one.
They even separated each hair by length to distinguish between new growth cycling out versus mature strands actually being lost.
ALL 43 WOMEN STARTED WITH HAIR LOSS RANGING FROM MODERATE-SEVERE HAIR LOSS on the ludwig scale (outlined)
Results were measured on the Ludwig Scale. The same standard the FDA uses. The same scale dermatologists have used in a medical context since 1977.
Most hair companies completely avoid this scale because it's incredibly difficult to show improvement on it.
Even a half-grade improvement is considered clinically significant.
They'd rather show you before-and-after photos with different lighting than attempt actual Ludwig measurement since it would just expose their inadequacy.
That's exactly why I insisted on using it.
If my approach didn't work under pharmaceutical-level scrutiny on the medical standard for female hair loss, I didn't want to sell it.
This was the first non-drug clinical trial ever done specifically on menopausal women with confirmed hair loss, measured on the scale that actually matters.

The Results
KilgourMD trials
1.0 Grade
improvement on the Ludwig Scale in 120 days. The Ludwig Scale is the medical standard dermatologists use to measure female hair loss — it's what the FDA uses.
In terms of growth, there was an 11.1% mean improvement in Ludwig scale by D120, eqivalent to a ~1.0 grade improvement.
Minoxidil takes 6-12 months to achieve similar results, and that's only if you're a responder. Up to 70% of menopausal women aren't — their scalps can't produce the enzyme to activate it.
This improvement marks a new chapter in hair loss treatment history.
KilgourMD trials
68%
fewer hairs in the shower at 6 weeks. This is usually the first sign women notice at home — less hair going down the drain. In this study, every woman shampooed at the lab in special showers designed to capture every single strand. Each hair was collected, dried for 48-72 hours, then counted by hand. At just 6 weeks, shedding during washing dropped by 68%.
Ingredient Trials
new hairs in 84 days. A hair transplant costs $15,000 or more and delivers 8,000-10,000 hairs. This matched a transplant. Without surgery.
Zero side effects. No burning, no facial hair, no dependency.
In our study 88% of women saw results. With minoxidil, that number is around 30 to 40%.
This shows scalp aging is the common denominator in menopause. Results aren't hit or miss as with treatments that just stimulate follicles.
Nutrafol doesn't have this data. Vegamour doesn't. Divi doesn't. No other hair product has ever been tested this rigorously on menopausal women.

Hair In Menopause
Mariam Taraz
Hairdresser for 15 years
I've been a hairdresser for 15 years and specialize in hair extensions. I own Extensions By MT in Los Angeles.
It's my passion to help women feel confident about their hair.
But when menopause hit me, all the while I was helping others, I had a very real struggle with my own hair loss.
Every single product I'd come across — Nutrafol, Vegamour, minoxidil, biotin — I tried right alongside my clients.
We were all in the same boat, and none of it worked.
My battle with menopausal hair loss became so bad I even got a hair transplant.
Which didn't go as I expected...
Transplant Day 1
Right after surgery. Thousands of grafts placed.
Transplant Day 120
It was working. I finally felt like myself again.
Transplant Day 180
Then it all fell out. Almost back to where I started. Nearly $10,000 gone just like that.
When I learned about scalp aging, it finally made sense. My scalp was too old to hold onto hair — even transplanted follicles. That's when I found KilgourMD. Below are my month three results.
Look at the difference. Starting stage — you could see straight through to my scalp. Month three — actual coverage. Density I haven't had in years.
I recommend this to every client over 40 now. I wish I found it before I spent thousands on a transplant that was never going to last.

Liv Wilcox
Hairdresser for 3 years
The difference I feel between my younger clients and my clients over 40 is night and day. Thinner at the root. More fragile. Hair that won't hold a style.
I started recommending this to my clients over 40 after I saw the clinical data. No other product has it.
Here's one of my clients at month three:
Starting stage — see how wide that part is? I couldn't style around it. No amount of teasing or product could hide it. Month three — actual coverage. I can work with this now. The part sits natural, the hair holds volume, it moves the way it's supposed to.
By week 6, I can feel it in my chair before they even notice. Thickness at the root. Less hair coming out when I run my fingers through. That's when I know it's working.

Results Guarantee
Our clinical trial showed 68% fewer long hairs in the shower by week 6. The mature strands — the ones clogging your drain and wrapping around your brush. When those stop falling out, you'll notice.
By month 3, women in extended use grew over 10,000 new hairs — more than a hair transplant typically delivers.
This is why I want to give you a 90-day guarantee. So you can see both of these milestones and decide if it's right for you. If you don't love the results, you get a full refund.
Most doctors recommend their patients start with the 3 or 6-month bundles to get the complete timeline — and we pass our shipping and manufacturing savings directly to you.
Clinical Studies
Redensyl® Increased hair growth by 214% in clinical trials. Performed 2x better than minoxidil at stimulating growth. Reactivates dormant hair follicle stem cells at the cellular level. Zero side effects reported.
Capixyl® Reduced inflammation by 48% and increased hair density by 79% in just 4 months. Outperformed minoxidil by 81% in clinical studies. Completely natural and side-effect free.
Procapil® Improved follicle blood flow by 121% and reduced hair loss by 58%. Blocks DHT locally at the follicle without affecting hormone levels elsewhere.
Anagain® Extended the hair growth phase by up to 78%, meaning each strand grows significantly longer before shedding. Reduced the resting phase by 34%, ensuring more follicles stay actively producing hair. Increases hair density through direct stimulation of dermal papilla cells.
RootBioTec® Reduced hair loss by 31% in just 2 months. Blocks the enzyme that creates DHT while simultaneously stimulating dermal papilla cells to keep follicles in their growth phase longer.
Rosemary Extract A 2020 review highlighted that rosemary improves scalp circulation, soothes irritation, and may be as effective as minoxidil in improving hair count. Associated with reduced scalp itchiness, decreased dandruff, and improved follicular environment.
Amla A 2020 clinical study evaluated a hair serum containing amla over 90 days. Results showed a notable increase in hair growth rate, density, and reduced hair fall. Zero adverse events reported.
Pumpkin Seed Extract A 2014 study demonstrated a 40% increase in hair count and 30% improvement in hair thickness after 24 weeks of use. Naturally inhibits the enzyme responsible for converting testosterone to DHT.
Caffeine Extends the hair growth phase by 37% and increases hair shaft elongation by 46%. Penetrates hair follicles within 2 minutes of topical application, blocking DHT effects and stimulating cellular metabolism.
Saw Palmetto Clinical reviews have shown that saw palmetto reduces androgen receptor activity in the scalp by 50%. Linked to reduced hair shedding and increased hair thickness without systemic side effects.
Turmeric (Curcumin) A 2020 systemic review emphasized turmeric's ability to address hormonal and inflammatory triggers of hair loss while enhancing follicle resilience. Shown to inhibit the enzyme that creates DHT and suppress inflammatory cytokines.
Combined RCP System (Redensyl® + Capixyl® + Procapil®) Demonstrated superiority to maximum strength 5% minoxidil across all outcome measures in an independent, published, peer-reviewed clinical trial. Showed more than 150% improvement in physician evaluation. Zero side effects reported, unlike minoxidil which commonly causes irritation, facial hair growth, and heart palpitations.
How to use
Apply both in the evening or before bed, as your scalp is in repair mode during sleep and to allow them time to be fully absorbed by the scalp.
(However, you can equally apply them in the morning if you prefer.)
Both serums are mess-free, light in colour, with no oily feeling and spread translucently so they don't stain your pillows.
Step 1
Pump 4-5 drops of product onto your palm.
Step 2
Spread a thin layer across your fingertips.

Frequently Asked
Question 1: How is this different from minoxidil?
Minoxidil forces blood flow but can't fix aged scalp tissue. Plus, up 70% of menopausal women don’t have enough of the enzyme to activate it. Our natural formula actually rejuvenates the scalp environment and works for everyone. No shedding when you start or stop, unlike minoxidil where everything falls out.
Question 2: Do I have to use this forever like minoxidil?
No! Unlike minoxidil where hair falls out when you stop, our results stick around. We transform your scalp environment and strengthen follicles, so the hair you grow is real, healthy hair. After achieving desired results, many women just use the Prevention serum occasionally for maintenance.
Question 3: Do I really need both serums?
Think of it like your face - you wouldn't use just moisturizer or just serum. The Prevention protects and maintains, the Treatment repairs and regrows. They target different pathways. Using just one is like using retinol without sunscreen.
Question 4: How long before I see results?
Most women notice less shedding within 2 weeks. New baby hairs typically appear by week 4. Full results develop over 3-6 months, just like with facial skincare. But you'll see progress much sooner.
Question 5: Can I use it with my current products?
Yes! Apply after your facial skincare routine, before bed. Let it absorb for 30 seconds, then you can use any styling products. Won't interfere with your regular shampoo, dry shampoo, or treatments.
Question 5: What if I've lost more than 50% of my hair?
We've seen dramatic results even in severe cases that doctors deemed "too advanced." The 2020 PNAS study showed even "dead" follicles can be revived in the right environment. And if it doesn't work, you get your money back.
Question 6: Are the products vegan and cruelty-free?
Yes! Completely vegan, cruelty-free, and we use sustainable packaging.
Question 7: What if it doesn't work for me?
Use both bottles completely, and if you don't notice improvement, we'll refund you. No questions asked.
Question 8: Where can I find Dr. Kilgour’s Credentials?
Here's his Stanford profile: https://med.stanford.edu/profiles/james-kilgour

Question 9: Any side effects?
In all clinical studies, zero adverse effects were reported. Unlike minoxidil's burning, itching, facial hair growth, and heart palpitations.

Frequently Asked
Isn't it just genetics?
Genetics can make your hair more sensitive to thinning. However, genetics alone don’t seal your fate. Factors like hormonal changes during menopause, stress, and oxidative damage all drastically intensify hair thinning—even in those without a strong genetic predisposition.
The KilgourMD Dual-Action System is designed to address these triggers, blocking 5-α reductase, calming inflammation, and supporting scalp health while rejuvenating growth...
As clinical studies on our active ingredients show, even if genetics aren't on your side, you can take control and promote thicker, healthier hair.
How is KilgourMD different from regular hair growth products? Is it worth it?
Dr. James Kilgour, the Stanford dermatologist who created KilgourMD, exposed the truth: most hair products use only 1-2 active ingredients at minimum concentrations - the rest is fillers and fragrances. They "look good on the label" but don't deliver results.
Here's what changes everything: During menopause, your scalp ages 10 times faster than your face. By 50, you could have an 80-year-old scalp. Regular treatments like minoxidil only mask symptoms while this "aged scalp" continues destroying follicles. That's why conventional treatments fail for menopausal women.
KilgourMD contains 12+ clinical-strength actives with patented liposomal delivery that penetrates deep into the scalp. The results? 214% increase in hair growth, over 10,200 new hairs in 90 days (better than one transplant), and 81% more effective than minoxidil - without the side effects.
Consider the math: Hair transplants cost $8,000-$25,000. Many women waste $200-300 monthly on volumizing shampoos, biotin gummies, and treatments that don't work. At $150 (or $127 with subscription), KilgourMD costs less than $1.50 per day.
Unlike minoxidil which you use forever, KilgourMD addresses root causes for lasting results. With endorsement from 500 US clinicians and a 30-day money-back guarantee on empty bottles, the real cost is continuing to use products that only treat symptoms while your scalp keeps aging.
Does it work for all hair types?
Absolutely! The Kilgour MD Dual-Action system works through prinicipal, cellular level mechanisms to address hair loss areas that are universal across all hair types and textures...
Whether you have straight, wavy, curly, or coily hair, the underlying menopausal hair thinning is driven by the same biological processes.
Our clinically studied & scientifically formulated approach targets the sources of menopausal disruption areas, making it effective regardless of your specific hair type or texture.
Why is liposomal delivery important?
Liposomal delivery is like giving the active ingredients a special license that lets them pass directly into your scalp cells...
These tiny phospholipid bubbles, which our ingredients are wrapped in, are made of the same material as your cell membranes, so your skin naturally welcomes them in.
This means ingredients can:
Bypass surface barriers
Penetrate deeper into scalp tissue
Deliver nutrients exactly where they're needed
Work more effectively than traditional topical treatments
By speaking the same "cellular language" as your skin, our liposomal technology ensures our ingredients get to work precisely where they can make the most difference without adverse reactions.
Can I use it during peri- or postmenopause?
Absolutely! Our system is designed to support hair health specifically during these unique challenges caused by the 3 disruption areas.
With natural, drug-free ingredients and advanced liposomal delivery, it’s safe and effective for use during these transformative times.
Can I use it if I have reactive or sensitive skin?
Our serums are specifically formulated to combine potency with gentleness and non-irritation, making them suitable for reactive and sensitive skin types.
We've carefully selected natural, clinically-studied ingredients that work harmoniously with your scalp's biology.
How long does one bottle of each serum last?
Each of our serums is 30ml, which should last one month with generous usage, but up to 3 months if used in a more targeted way.
What is the 90-day guarantee?
We know that you will love our products as much as we do, especially when you see the results. That's why we offer a 90-day no-question refund on all of our products.
Refunds are subject to our full refund policy.
After recovering my hair health, do I stop using it?
It's common to consider stopping hair serums once your menopausal hair health improves, but maintaining some level of care can help sustain your results.
Menopausal hair thinning and shedding is a complex change and often persists for a long time.
Here's two approaches our customers have often taken:
Gradual Transition: Instead of stopping abruptly, reduce serum use to 1-3 times per week to monitor your hair’s response.
Seasonal or Stress-Triggered Use: Reintroduce regular serum use during times of high stress or noticeable shedding/thinning.
Stopping completely is an option if the underlying causes are resolved and maintenance strategies are in place.
However, maintaining healthy hair requires ongoing care, especially during menopause, so scaling back rather than stopping entirely may be more effective.

Dr. Kilgour's 90-Day
Results Guarantee
Our studies showed 10,200+ new hairs in 12 weeks. That's transplant-level results - which is why I give you 90 days to see them yourself. Use both serums nightly for the full 90 days. If you don't see real regrowth, full refund. This is why we recommend the 3 or 6-month bundles - you need the complete timeline to reverse scalp aging and watch your hair transform.
Clinical Studies
Redensyl® Increased hair growth by 214% in clinical trials. Performed 2x better than minoxidil at stimulating growth. Reactivates dormant hair follicle stem cells at the cellular level. Zero side effects reported.
Capixyl® Reduced inflammation by 48% and increased hair density by 79% in just 4 months. Outperformed minoxidil by 81% in clinical studies. Completely natural and side-effect free.
Procapil® Improved follicle blood flow by 121% and reduced hair loss by 58%. Blocks DHT locally at the follicle without affecting hormone levels elsewhere.
Anagain® Extended the hair growth phase by up to 78%, meaning each strand grows significantly longer before shedding. Reduced the resting phase by 34%, ensuring more follicles stay actively producing hair. Increases hair density through direct stimulation of dermal papilla cells.
RootBioTec® Reduced hair loss by 31% in just 2 months. Blocks the enzyme that creates DHT while simultaneously stimulating dermal papilla cells to keep follicles in their growth phase longer.
Rosemary Extract A 2020 review highlighted that rosemary improves scalp circulation, soothes irritation, and may be as effective as minoxidil in improving hair count. Associated with reduced scalp itchiness, decreased dandruff, and improved follicular environment.
Amla A 2020 clinical study evaluated a hair serum containing amla over 90 days. Results showed a notable increase in hair growth rate, density, and reduced hair fall. Zero adverse events reported.
Pumpkin Seed Extract A 2014 study demonstrated a 40% increase in hair count and 30% improvement in hair thickness after 24 weeks of use. Naturally inhibits the enzyme responsible for converting testosterone to DHT.
Caffeine Extends the hair growth phase by 37% and increases hair shaft elongation by 46%. Penetrates hair follicles within 2 minutes of topical application, blocking DHT effects and stimulating cellular metabolism.
Saw Palmetto Clinical reviews have shown that saw palmetto reduces androgen receptor activity in the scalp by 50%. Linked to reduced hair shedding and increased hair thickness without systemic side effects.
Turmeric (Curcumin) A 2020 systemic review emphasized turmeric's ability to address hormonal and inflammatory triggers of hair loss while enhancing follicle resilience. Shown to inhibit the enzyme that creates DHT and suppress inflammatory cytokines.
Combined RCP System (Redensyl® + Capixyl® + Procapil®) Demonstrated superiority to maximum strength 5% minoxidil across all outcome measures in an independent, published, peer-reviewed clinical trial. Showed more than 150% improvement in physician evaluation. Zero side effects reported, unlike minoxidil which commonly causes irritation, facial hair growth, and heart palpitations.
How to use
Apply both in the evening or before bed, as your scalp is in repair mode during sleep and to allow them time to be fully absorbed by the scalp.
(However, you can equally apply them in the morning if you prefer.)
Both serums are mess-free, light in colour, with no oily feeling and spread translucently so they don't stain your pillows.
Step 1
Pump 4-5 drops of product onto your palm.
Step 2
Spread a thin layer across your fingertips.
Step 3
Apply directly to the scalp, using your fingertips and massage in.
Step 4
Style your hair as usual!

Frequently asked
Question 1: How is this
different from minoxidil?
Minoxidil forces blood flow but can't fix aged scalp tissue. Plus, up 70% of menopausal women don’t have enough of the enzyme to activate it. Our natural formula actually rejuvenates the scalp environment and works for everyone. No shedding when you start or stop, unlike minoxidil where everything falls out.
Question 2: Do I have to use
this forever like minoxidil?
No! Unlike minoxidil where hair falls out when you stop, our results stick around. We transform your scalp environment and strengthen follicles, so the hair you grow is real, healthy hair. After achieving desired results, many women just use the Prevention serum occasionally for maintenance.
Question 3: Do I really
need both serums?
Think of it like your face - you wouldn't use just moisturizer or just serum. The Prevention protects and maintains, the Treatment repairs and regrows. They target different pathways. Using just one is like using retinol without sunscreen.
Question 4: How long
before I see results?
Most women notice less shedding within 2 weeks. New baby hairs typically appear by week 4. Full results develop over 3-6 months, just like with facial skincare. But you'll see progress much sooner.
Question 5: Can I use it
with my current products?
Yes! Apply after your facial skincare routine, before bed. Let it absorb for 30 seconds, then you can use any styling products. Won't interfere with your regular shampoo, dry shampoo, or treatments.
Question 5: What if I've lost
more than 50% of my hair?
We've seen dramatic results even in severe cases that doctors deemed "too advanced." The 2020 PNAS study showed even "dead" follicles can be revived in the right environment. And if it doesn't work, you get your money back.
Question 6: Are the products
vegan and cruelty-free?
Yes! Completely vegan, cruelty-free, and we use sustainable packaging.
Question 7: What if it
doesn't work for me?
Use both bottles completely, and if you don't notice improvement, we'll refund you. No questions asked.

Question 9: Any
side effects?
In all clinical studies, zero adverse effects were reported. Unlike minoxidil's burning, itching, facial hair growth, and heart palpitations.

The Exact Routine Used
in the Clinical Trial
This is the same application method that delivered 68% less shedding and one full Ludwig grade improvement. 50 seconds a day. Won't weigh your hair down, won't affect styling, safe for color-treated hair.
step 1
Apply to Damp or Dry Hair
The serums work on both damp and dry hair because of how they're formulated.
The active ingredients use a liposomal delivery system that penetrates your scalp tissue regardless of moisture level. The liposomes act like tiny delivery vehicles that fuse with your scalp cells and carry the actives deep into the follicle layer.
Important: Avoid applying to soaking wet hair. Excess water dilutes the serums and prevents proper absorption. Towel-dry first if you just showered.
Whether your hair is damp from a fresh shower or completely dry on a non-wash day, the serums reach the same depth and deliver the same results.
The key is getting the serum directly onto your scalp tissue, not your hair strands.
step 2
Part Your Hair in Sections
Don't apply serum on top of your hair. Actually part your hair in sections and apply the serum directly to the scalp tissue.
Use 1-2 dropperfuls and create 2-4 parts across your scalp. Apply the serum to each section, focusing on areas where you want more growth.
Some women apply to their hair strands instead of their scalp. This won't get you results. The actives need to reach your scalp tissue and follicles, not sit on top of your hair.
step 3
Massage for at Least One Minute
After applying the serum, massage it into your scalp for at least 60 seconds using gentle circular motions with your fingertips.
This stimulates blood flow to your follicles and helps the active ingredients absorb deeper into the scalp tissue. The massage also helps the serum spread evenly across your entire scalp.
Women who massage consistently see results faster than those who just apply and leave.
step 4
Use Both Serums at Night
Apply both the Prevention and Treatment serums in the evening, ideally right before bed.
Why? Your scalp repairs itself during sleep. Blood flow increases. Cell regeneration peaks between 10pm-4am. Applying at night means the actives work with your body's natural repair cycle.
Plus, the serums have 6-8 hours to absorb without interference from styling products, sweat, or washing.
