What am I really doing by marrying Finasteride (Propecia/Proscar)?

[WHTC Clinic]

Unfortunately, finasteride cannot actually stop your hair loss. Finasteride only reduces the level (approx. 69%) of dihydrotestosterone (DHT) in your blood and on your scalp. It was originally used for treating prostate enlargement in men. You should take finasteride to slow down the process of hair loss and reduce its effects as much as reasonably possible. Typically, in the vertex (top of the scalp toward the back), this drug improves or maintains the quality and volume of your hair. Basically, by accepting the long-term commitment to this drug, you are slowing down your rate of hair loss and thickening your thinning areas. Prior to taking this big step, certainly read all warnings and cautions regarding the possible side effects associated with this drug.

Whether to be on medical therapy for hair loss is a very intimate decision. Deciding to pursue surgical hair restoration may not be as important as deciding to maintain your existing hair. Hair loss is totally progressive condition. Not only do you as an individual hair loss sufferer want hair but you should also want to keep it as well.

At MyWHTC clinic, we strive to educate you about current hair restoration options to help you decide on what treatments are most beneficial and which to avoid.

I always thought Finasteride did stop the loss if you responded to it.

Seems like a strange statement....

I found that finasteride not only halted my hair loss but I also found my hair increased...

When I added Rogaine some time later, things only got better...

I stopped both meds months ago and my hair has thinned dramatically.... I am just starting up on both again... will be interesting to see what happens over the next 6 / 12 months ...


PS.... I had been on fin for 6 years and Rogaine for around 5 years...

Hi everyone,

It would be nice if all individuals responded well but the medical therapy only slows the process. This is what we hope that finasteride will do for those who commit. As previously stated by TimUK, there are multiple benefits that can be taken for granted as time on the medication passes. The much bigger picture is that we want our patients to delay their progression of hair loss because it will continue. Surgical hair restoration should not be the sole solution or primary treatment method of an individual seeking to combat hair loss.

Thank you for sharing, guys.

I don't think I have any any increase, but I haven't lost anymore hair on fin, and I only take 2/5ths of a tab per week.

Thanks for the insight. The medication is a committment. When is the end!
