Propecia: An Effective Treatment of Male Pattern Hair Loss

Propecia is known to be an effective treatment of male pattern hair loss. It is a brand marketed by the pharmaceutical giant Merck. The main constituent of this brand is Finasteride. The drug finasteride is a synthetic antiandrogen, which is considered to be highly potent treatment for male pattern baldness. According to a study, men with mild to moderate hair loss, 66% of the men who took Propecia daily, re-grew hair loss.

Propecia is known for significantly reducing DHT (dihydrotestosterone), which is the main cause of hair loss. DHT is a substance in the body that can shrink the hair follicle until it no longer produces visible hair. The drug acts by inhibiting type II 5-alpha reductase, the enzyme that converts testosterone to DHT (dihydrotestosterone). By blocking this enzyme, the drug reduces androgenic activity in the scalp, treating hair loss at its hormonal source.
