Propecia is an offshoot of another medication called Proscar, which has been widely used since 1992. This 5 mg tablet containing the active ingredient "Finasteride" was used to reduce the adverse effects of DHT on the system. As hair loss is primarily linked to the effects of DHT, it was reasoned that Finasteride would help stop or reverse the process. FDA trials on 1,500 men yielded shocking results. Nearly 83% of men who continued treatment for 2 years either saw a complete stop of hair loss, an increase in hair growth, or both. Results were confirmed by actual hair counts and nearly 80% of men were categorized by visual assessments that their appearance had improved.
Propecia (finasteride) is used to treat male pattern baldness (androgenic alopecia) in men.It is also used in combination with doxazosin in the treatment of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). On December 22 1997, 1mg of Oral Finasteride was approved by the FDA as a treatment for Male Pattern Baldness. Proscar is 5mg of Oral finasteride, and should only be used in this dosage to treat BPH. Propecia is 1mg of Finasteride which is taken daily for the treatment of Male Pattern Baldness.Proscar can offer cost conscious consumers a cheaper alternative to Proscar. Buy purchasing Proscar and dividing the 5mg tablet into quarters customers can enjoy the benefits of Propecia at a fraction of the cost.
Testosterone floating in the bloodstream of the typical adult male routinely combines with an enzyme called 5-alpha reductase. The result of this interaction forms the more potent sexual hormone known as DHT (Dihydrotestosterone). When a man begins to lose his hair, certain genetically programmed follicles begin to develop DHT receptor sites. The DHT attaches itself to these receptor sites and begins to treat the follicle as a foreign object in the body. This chemical change not only affects hair.
It can cause itching, inflammation, and oiliness. During this time, the follicle, under the attack of DHT, begins to miniaturize with every growth cycle, until after several years, it simply is too small and short to be seen. When Propecia is taken, it works to inhibit the formation of DHT in the system. Within a few months, the overall DHT levels will have remained low enough on a constant basis that the adverse effects DHT is having on the follicles will stop, resulting in a cessation of hair loss.
