Propecia: Prevent Male Pattern Hair Loss

Did you start losing your hair in your teens? Or maybe your twenties or thirties? If you did, you need to do your homework and learn about Propecia. Because Propecia can help you retain the hair you still have, or even help you grow new hair.

In a study done on two groups of men with male pattern hair loss, one group taking Propecia and one not, statistics showed that the men taking Propecia experienced 42% hair retention and 48% new hair growth. The men not taking Propecia continued to lose their hair.

Propecia was developed to help men retain or re-grow hair on the top or middle front of the head. There is not enough information available yet to prove that Propecia helps hair growth along the hairline or temples.

The sooner you begin using Propecia, the better it will work for you. Propecia is available only through doctor’s advice, so talk to your physician and get started on Propecia right away. Once you start using Propecia, you have to continue to use it. If you discontinue use, you will probably lose the hair you gained within twelve months.

Male pattern hair loss is caused by two major factors. One is genetics. Contrary to popular thought, you can inherit male pattern hair loss from either your mother’s or your father’s side of the family. There is nothing you can do about your gene pool, but there is something you can do about your hair loss. You can take Propecia.

Propecia blocks excess DHT in your scalp. DHT is the second cause of male pattern hair loss. It causes the hair follicle to weaken and shrink. Not only does this cause unhealthy hair and hair that will fall out, but it makes all of your hair look weak and thinning. Not only does Propecia block the harmful effects of DHT, but it causes all of the hair to have a healthier appearance.
