The search for an end to inevitable hair loss in men has lead people to try all sort of treatments from diet, massage and any number of shampoos and topical remedies with varying success rates. Propecia is a daily pill treatment that can help men maintain, prevent and even reverse the signs of male pattern baldness. Propecia is a preparation of Finasteride which works to counteract the effects of naturally occurring DHT (Dihydrotestosterone) in the body which can attack hair follicles, and cause the body to treat them as a foreign substance and eventually dislodge them. By minimizing the production of DHT in the body, Propecia can allow the natural hair renewal and growth pattern to continue and even to restart in afflicted areas. Propecia comes in pill form and should be taken daily, ideally with water but with or without food. It will take about 3 months for the production of DHT to be sufficiently impaired to see any visible changes to hair loss and/or regrowth. During the first month, there can be several side effects commonly associated with taking Propecia. These include headache, runny nose or congestion, mild dizziness or breathing issues and should only be causes for concern if they are persistent. If side effects persist after the first month then it would be sensible to seek medical attention and perhaps another treatment. Propecia is contra-indicated with several drugs taken for ongoing medical conditions so should only be taken after a full medical consultation. These conditions include, but are not limited to, liver and bladder conditions, prostate cancer and urinary infections. The pills are for men only and should not be handled by women as the contents can be absorbed through the skin and have been linked with birth defects in unborn children.

One of the developments that takes place after a few months of taking Propecia is shedding. Understandably, this can cause many men to assume that the treatment is not working as it is the complete opposite of the effect they were trying to achieve. In fact, this is evidence that the treatment is working. The existing follicles have stopped working and the body is creating new growths. The phase tends to last for up to a month after which new growth should be visible. For best results, an anti-dandruff or scalp treatment shampoo should be used whilst taking Propecia. This will help ensure that the scalp is free from oil, skin debris and inflammation throughout the treatment.
