Dear Dr. Roach:I have a long-standing relationship with my hair loss doctor. He prescribed Minoxidil, and I’m wondering what he has to do to help me manage my hair loss. I have been taking propecia for several months now, and my hair is starting to thin. I’m wondering if any of you have experienced this problem before, or have others who have taken the medication. If so, is there any way you can tell your doctor about it? And, if not, what other options would you have?
I’m so sorry you had to take this medication, Dr. Roach. I can’t stress it enough, it’s not something you should ever take personally. You may want to consult a specialist in your area. There are a number of things you can do to help manage hair loss, such as stopping smoking, increasing vitamin D levels, and quitting. If you’re worried about losing your hair, I would certainly recommend reading about finasteride, but it’s a drug that is FDA-approved for treating many different types of hair loss. For one thing, it can be used to treat early menopause, or in women. It’s also been used off-label for hair loss, so it’s certainly worth discussing with a doctor. If you’re interested in learning more about finasteride, I would certainly recommend checking out some of the other products on the market, such as MUSE (for prostate and female hair loss) and Alka-Seltzer (for hair loss in men). They’re great options if you need a bit of help with your hair loss. Also, don’t forget to talk to your doctor if you have any questions or concerns.
I know this is an emotional topic, but I think it’s important for anyone who is struggling with hair loss to be proactive and talk to their doctor as soon as possible. I’m a long-time user of this, but it’s definitely worth asking!
Best wishes,
Dr. Roach
I started taking Propecia a few months ago, and I’m a bit curious about how it compares with minoxidil. As I mentioned earlier, it’s the first drug FDA approved for hair loss treatment. I started taking propecia because I was taking it to help me with my hair loss, but I decided to stop when I heard that it might reduce my hair loss. I didn’t think much of it until now, but I’ve been taking it for a few years now, and I know it’s working wonders for my hair, especially with my hair loss. So, I’m hoping this drug will help me manage my hair loss a bit more.
Thanks,
I started taking Propecia after my son’s doctor recommended it. The first time I took it, my hair was falling out. It made me nervous and anxious. When I heard that my hair loss was caused by this drug, I just knew it was a possibility. But I’m glad that my doctor has recommended it. It can be an effective treatment for many different hair loss conditions. I also know that it can help you get back your hair. It’s like a miracle drug in a lot of ways. I really wish Propecia would work better for me.
I am so glad you had the courage to take this medication. It’s great that you are starting to see results after two years of taking it. I know how frustrating it can be, but I’ve been so concerned about my hair loss that I’m not sure if it’s worth the struggle.
Thank you,
I was diagnosed with hair loss at 18 years old in October 2012. The hair loss was caused by thinning of the scalp hair that had grown in our family. I didn’t see much difference from taking finasteride. My doctor prescribed it and it worked. I’m very happy with how I look and feel, but it’s been a long time since I’ve seen anything similar to what I have.

How does the hair on your head grow?On average your hair grows about 1 centimetre (half an inch) each month. Hair growsfrom hair follicles, which are located under your skin.
A single scalp hair grows continuously for 2-4 years (growth phase) and then stopsgrowing for 2-4 months (rest phase). After this the hair falls out. In its place a newhealthy hair begins to grow, and the cycle is repeated. The hairs on your scalp arealways in different stages of this cycle so it is normal to lose scalp hair every day.
What is male pattern hair loss?
Male pattern hair loss is a common condition in which men experience thinning of thehair on the scalp, often resulting in a receding hairline and/or balding on the top of thehead. This condition is thought to be caused by a combination of genetic factors and aparticular hormone, DHT (dihydrotestosterone).
DHT causes a decrease in the growth phase and thinning of the hair (see picture). Thisleads to male pattern hair loss. These changes can start to occur in some men in their20s and become more common with age. Once hair loss has occurred over a longperiod of time, the hair may be permanently lost.

Setting:Male subjects.
Participants:6,500 men aged >18 years, and 6,500 men with female pattern hair loss (non-balding).
Main outcome measure:Male pattern hair loss in the treatment of male pattern hair loss.
Intervention:The study was a 3-period, double-blind, placebo-controlled study of minoxidil and finasteride in men.
Results:Finasteride (finasteride group) showed a significant improvement in the hair loss rate after 6 months (95% CI, 0.92-1.01) compared to the placebo group. In the finasteride group, the rate of hair loss was significantly reduced compared to the placebo group (p<0.05).

Finasteride (dihydrotestosterone (dHT), minoxidil®and finasteride) is an effective and well-tolerated agent for the treatment of male pattern hair loss in men. Minoxidil and finasteride, a class of 5-alpha reductase inhibitors, have been shown to reduce male pattern hair loss in men, though finasteride has not demonstrated a significant effect on hair loss.Finasteride (dHT, 5α-reductase inhibitor) is an effective and well-tolerated agent for the treatment of male pattern hair loss in men.Keywords:Finasteride, male pattern hair loss, finasteride, hair loss, minoxidil, finasteride, finasteride, treatment of male pattern hair loss
Minoxidil (a 5α-reductase inhibitor) is an effective and well-tolerated agent for the treatment of male pattern hair loss in men.The active ingredient in Propecia is Finasteride 1mg. The main ingredient is Finasteride 1mg, which contains the same active ingredient as the active ingredient in the hair loss medication Finasteride. This means that the active ingredient is absorbed into your bloodstream and causes hair growth. Finasteride belongs to a class of drugs called 5-alpha reductase inhibitors. Finasteride works by blocking the enzyme that converts testosterone into DHT (dihydrotestosterone). DHT is a hormone that causes hair loss in men. However, the drug is not used for treating hair loss, as Finasteride does not affect the production of testosterone. Finasteride is available in the form of tablets, and the active ingredient in the medicine is available as a liquid. The medication is usually taken once a day, and the dose is decided by a doctor. The dosage is taken by mouth and is usually taken 1 to 2 times a day. The medicine is also available over the counter and has no side effects.
