Propecia is a medication used to treat male pattern hair loss, also known as androgenetic alopecia, in adult men. It contains the active ingredient finasteride, which belongs to a group of medicines called 5α-reductase inhibitors.
Propecia works by targeting a specific enzyme in the body called type II 5α-reductase. This enzyme is responsible for converting testosterone into dihydrotestosterone (DHT), a hormone linked to hair loss in men who are genetically susceptible. By blocking this enzyme, Propecia lowers the levels of DHT in the scalp and blood, which helps to slow down hair loss and can even encourage new hair growth in some men.
Propecia is specifically used to treat male pattern hair loss, particularly on the crown (top) and middle front of the scalp. It is not intended for use in women or children and is not effective for other types of hair loss.
By reducing DHT levels, Propecia helps to prevent the shrinking (miniaturisation) of hair follicles, which is the main cause of thinning hair and baldness in male pattern hair loss. This action allows hair follicles to remain healthy for longer, maintaining hair density and sometimes promoting regrowth of hair that has recently been lost.
The main benefit of Propecia is its ability to slow down or stop hair loss in men with male pattern baldness. Many men notice that their hair loss slows after about three months of consistent use, with some experiencing thicker hair or regrowth, especially on the crown of the head. The effects last as long as the medication is taken regularly. Propecia is taken as a once-daily tablet, making it convenient to use. It is generally well tolerated, with most men experiencing few side effects. However, if the medication is stopped, any hair gained or maintained is usually lost within a year.
