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.

Propecia and alcohol
Alcohol is a major cause of hair loss. This type of alcohol use is called 'benzo use'. It increases the level of DHT in the scalp and can cause hair loss.
Propecia, a medication widely recognized for its ability to inhibit the conversion of testosterone to dihydrotestosterone (DHT), has been a cornerstone of dermatology treatment since its introduction by Dr. John Thompson in 1997. This article aims to provide a brief history of Propecia, its development and usage, as well as its side effects, before diving into its applications and benefits. While it's true that the drug has been prescribed for many men, it's also true that it has been used in a number of patients. In a comprehensive clinical review of Propecia users, Dr. Thompson reviewed more than 30 clinical trials conducted over more than 2,100 patients, highlighting the range of applications and benefits it has brought to patients.
In the realm of hair loss treatment, Propecia has garnered attention for its efficacy and safety. It works by inhibiting the production of dihydrotestosterone (DHT), a hormone that contributes to hair loss in men. By blocking the conversion of testosterone to DHT, Propecia helps to slow down the progression of hair loss and promotes regrowth. By inhibiting the conversion of testosterone to DHT, Propecia helps to reduce the likelihood of hair thinning and eventual hair loss. Moreover, it has been noted that Propecia can be prescribed for patients who have been diagnosed with male pattern baldness or for those who have not, in general, reported that they had a reduced scalp hair count and had been using finasteride (Propecia), a medication that can help to slow down this process. However, it's important to note that Propecia has been used off-label for many men, and that the drug may be associated with side effects such as decreased libido, erectile dysfunction and sexual dysfunction. In this article, we will delve into the scientific studies that have been conducted and provide insights into the use of Propecia in a broader context.
DHT is a potent and well-known culprit in many dermatological conditions. As a result of its role as a hormone, Propecia plays a crucial role in the management of men with hair loss, including those with androgenic alopecia, the most common type of male pattern baldness. As such, this medication has been widely used as a part of the treatment strategy to prevent further hair loss and is often prescribed as a first-line treatment for those who have not responded well to other hair loss treatments. However, it's important to note that the usage of Propecia for male pattern baldness should be strictly monitored by a healthcare professional, as it is not approved for use in men, and it is important to discuss any concerns or side effects with a doctor before starting treatment.
The Science Behind Propecia: How It Works
Propecia is an oral medication that works by inhibiting the conversion of testosterone to dihydrotestosterone (DHT), a hormone that has been used to treat male pattern baldness. The key ingredient in Propecia is Finasteride, a synthetic form of the hormone dihydrotestosterone (DHT), which has been a mainstay for the treatment of male pattern baldness. Finasteride works by inhibiting the conversion of testosterone to dihydrotestosterone, which is a potent androgen that plays a critical role in the development of male pattern baldness. By reducing the conversion of testosterone to DHT, Propecia helps to slow down the progression of hair loss and may help to prevent further hair loss and even stimulate new hair growth. However, it's important to note that Finasteride has not been proven to be effective in clinical trials for male pattern baldness.
DHT is a key component in the development of male pattern baldness. It plays a significant role in the maintenance of the hair on the scalp, and can cause hair loss by shrinking the hair follicles and eventually leading to hair loss in men. Propecia, in general, has been used to treat male pattern baldness and has been associated with increased hair growth in some men. It has been noted that Propecia may cause side effects in some men, such as decreased libido, erectile dysfunction and decreased ejaculate volume. It is important to consult a healthcare professional before starting treatment with Propecia to ensure it is safe and appropriate for you.
The FDA has approved a new product to treat male pattern baldness, the most common type of hair loss in men. It’s called Propecia, and it’s the only new medication on the market that’s been approved by the FDA for this purpose.
The drug is called finasteride and is produced by Merck, a major pharmaceutical company. Merck’s name is Proscar, and Propecia is the brand name for the drug. A lot of people think that the drug is a better treatment for hair loss than Propecia.
But it’s actually pretty safe to take Propecia with a pill. The FDA hasn’t approved Propecia for this purpose yet, but a recent study has been looking at the potential benefits of taking the drug.
The study, which included more than 1,000 men, looked at how well Propecia works in men who suffer from male pattern baldness. Researchers found that Propecia helped them slow down the process of regrowing hair, and stopped hair loss for three months.
This is the same study that the drug industry has been doing for years. The drugs are generally safe to take with Propecia, but some men may be more sensitive to the drug’s side effects.
In the study, researchers found that men who took the drug experienced an improvement in their hair count within three months. The men were also able to prevent further loss for up to six months. The results were pretty impressive, though some men were less than three months gone when they stopped taking the drug.
The study also looked at a possible benefit for women, who were more likely to lose weight than men, who experienced weight loss when taking Propecia.
But it’s not just the women. Researchers also looked at other factors that could be important, like how much more hair they’d like to lose. Women were also more likely to experience side effects, including depression, anxiety, and difficulty sleeping.
The results of the study were mixed. Some men were experiencing side effects, while others didn’t. It’s possible that Propecia could help to lower the risk of hair loss, but the overall risk for men is too small to be serious.
Other factors, like how the drug is prescribed and the dosage, also play a big role in how safe Propecia is for men.
So, the idea of taking Propecia is worth a shot. But don’t be fooled into thinking you’re getting it for something else, which is why the FDA has approved it for this purpose.
That’s because Propecia isn’t the only treatment that’s being approved by the FDA. Other drugs, like and also work by blocking an enzyme called type 2 5-alpha reductase, also work by blocking the 5-alpha reductase enzyme. These types of medications are considered to be more effective than Propecia, but the FDA isn’t aware of any studies that show that they can help with hair loss.
If you’re interested in trying Propecia, here are some things you should know about the drug:
• You should be taking Propecia if you’ve had hair loss for a while, but you don’t need to take Propecia.• You shouldn’t take Propecia if you’re allergic to finasteride or any of the other ingredients in the drug.• The side effects of the drug are not as bad as they used to be, but they can still be serious.• The side effects of Propecia are relatively mild and usually resolve on their own.• You shouldn’t take Propecia if you have a history of prostate problems, high blood pressure, liver or kidney disease, or if you’re taking other medications that affect blood clotting.
