By far the most common form of hair loss is determined by our genes and hormones. Also known as androgen-dependent, androgenic, or genetic hair loss, it is the largest single type of recognizable alopecia to affect both men and women. It is estimated that around 30% of Caucasian females are affected before menopause. Other commonly used names for genetic hair loss include common baldness, diffuse hair loss, male pattern baldness.
May also be referred to as: Finasteride, Proscar.
Propecia is the first and only FDA-approved pill proven to treat male pattern hair loss on the vertex (top of the head) and anterior mid-scalp area in men. |

HOW DOES PROPECIA WORK? |
| |
PROPECIA lowers the levels of a hormone called dihydrotestosterone (DHT) in the scalp and blood by blocking the enzyme that metabolises DHT. Researchers in this area believe male pattern hair loss is due to heredity and is dependent on the levels of DHT. DHT contributes to a shortening of the growth phase and a thinning of the hair. Men with male pattern baldness have increased levels of DHT in their scalps. |

HOW LONG DOES IT TAKE TO PROPECIA TO WORK? |
| |
You may need to take PROPECIA daily for three months or more before you can see a benefit. Hair grows very slowly, about half an inch a month. Most men begin to see the first benefit of PROPECIA, slowing of hair loss, after 3 months, and after 6 months begin to experience regrowth. Generally, you will not grow back all the hair you have lost. If PROPECIA has not worked for you in 12 months, further treatment is unlikely to be of benefit. If you stop taking PROPECIA, it is likely that you will lose the hair you have gained within 12 months of stopping treatment. |
