Propecia (Finasteride)

What it does:

Propecia prevents the conversion of testosterone to dihydrotestosterone (DHT) in the body. Propecia is used for the treatment of male pattern hair loss on the vertex and the anterior mid-scalp area. Male pattern hair loss is a common condition in which men experience thinning of the hair on the scalp. Often, this results in a receding hairline and/or balding on the top of the head. Propecia is for use by men only and should not be used by women or children.

Normal Applications:

In addition to taking medication like Propecia, there are some things you can do to try to minimize hair loss, including:

  1. Be gentle with your hair: Generally, your hair can handle you tying it up out of your face, but if you consistently tie it into tight braids or use heat-styling tools like curling irons or straighteners every day, you’re going to start damaging it — and this can lead to hair loss.
  2. Get a good brush: Using a soft brush can help condition your hair cuticles, which ultimately can strengthen each strand, reducing the chance of breakage.
  3. Eat a nutrient-rich diet: Eat raw vegetables and fresh herbs like parsley, basil, or salad leaves, as well as foods rich in proteins and vitamin A like spinach and sweet potatoes.
  4. Use mild shampoo: Try to avoid shampoos with harsh ingredients like sulfates, which can dry out or damage your hair. Instead, look for ingredients like coconut oil, which can strengthen your hair.
  5. Do not over-wash your hair: It can harm your hair and can eventually contribute to hair loss.
  6. Avoid bleaching your hair: These harsh chemicals can damage your hair over time, splitting the keratin molecules.

It’s important to know that factors like thyroid issues, aging, and genetics can also cause hair loss.

Common Side Effects:

A 2020 report points out that about 4% of patients who have used Propecia noticed mood swings and sexual dysfunction, including low libido, difficulty achieving an orgasm, and overall loss of interest in sex. But the study also points out that overall, the drug is generally well tolerated. While these sexual side effects will most likely stop once you stop taking the drug, the 2020 report also notes that long-term side effects include depression and anxiety, and they can occur even after a person stops taking it.

Administration Recommendations & Ideal Dosages:

Normal dosage is in the 1-2 mg orally daily range. For the treatment of male pattern hair loss in men only. Safety and efficacy have been demonstrated in men between 18 to 41 years of age with mild to moderate hair loss of the vertex and anterior mid scalp area. Daily use for 3 months or more is necessary before benefit is observed. Continued use is recommended to sustain benefit. Withdrawal of treatment leads to reversal of effect within 12 months.
