How do hair loss drugs work? Do they work?

I always thought it was a scam and never looked back.

Topical hair loss drugs such as minoxidil(Rogaine) do work for most. It works by accelating the life cycle of your hair where applied.

I remembet reading it works to one extent or another on about 40% of the population who has used it
