How does the hair on your head grow?On average your hair grows about 1 centimetre (half an inch) each month. Hair growsfrom hair follicles, which are located under your skin.
A single scalp hair grows continuously for 2-4 years (growth phase) and then stopsgrowing for 2-4 months (rest phase). After this the hair falls out. In its place a newhealthy hair begins to grow, and the cycle is repeated. The hairs on your scalp arealways in different stages of this cycle so it is normal to lose scalp hair every day.
What is male pattern hair loss?
Male pattern hair loss is a common condition in which men experience thinning of thehair on the scalp, often resulting in a receding hairline and/or balding on the top of thehead. This condition is thought to be caused by a combination of genetic factors and aparticular hormone, DHT (dihydrotestosterone).
DHT causes a decrease in the growth phase and thinning of the hair (see picture). Thisleads to male pattern hair loss. These changes can start to occur in some men in their20s and become more common with age. Once hair loss has occurred over a longperiod of time, the hair may be permanently lost.

How to use Propecia Propecia is for use only in men and should not be used by women.Advantages
It’s a question of the two most common types of medications used to treat male pattern baldness: finasteride (Dutasteride) and minoxidil (Rogaine).
Finasteride inhibits the conversion of testosterone to dihydrotestosterone (DHT), which shrinks the hair follicles, and blocks the conversion of testosterone to DHT, thus promoting hair growth and preventing further hair loss.
Minoxidil stimulates the production of DHT in the scalp, which in turn, reduces hair loss and can stimulate hair growth.
Finasteride inhibits the action of the enzyme 5α-reductase, which converts testosterone to DHT. This enzyme is responsible for converting testosterone to DHT in the scalp.
It’s a well-known fact that finasteride inhibits the development of male pattern baldness. But how do you know which type of medication is right for you? The answer depends on several factors. First, it’s important to note that finasteride is prescribed for the treatment of male pattern baldness. It works by inhibiting the enzyme 5α-reductase, which converts testosterone to DHT in the scalp.
Finasteride is not recommended for use in men with an enlarged prostate, testicular or adrenal glands, or in men with benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). Finasteride is not approved for use in women, but in some cases, it may be used for the treatment of male pattern baldness.
Finasteride is also not approved for the treatment of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), or for the prevention of hair loss in men with an enlarged prostate or urinary tract infection. It’s also not approved for the treatment of male pattern baldness.
Before starting treatment with finasteride, it’s important to tell your doctor if you have any of the following medical conditions:
If you have any of these medical conditions, speak to your doctor or pharmacist.
If you’ve had an allergic reaction to finasteride or any other medication, tell your doctor before taking this medication. It’s important to tell your doctor if you have any of these conditions:
If you have any of these medical conditions, your doctor may recommend an alternative treatment method.
If you forget to take finasteride, make sure to let your doctor know by phone. Some people take finasteride daily, while others only take the medication for hair loss. If you’re taking a long-term treatment, you may need to take a daily pill or topical spray. If you forget to take finasteride, take it as soon as you remember, and then continue to take it until your next scheduled dose.
If you’ve taken finasteride for more than six months, the medication may not be the right choice for you. If you have hair loss, it’s important to speak to your doctor about whether you should stop taking finasteride.
It’s also important to tell your doctor if you have any allergies, such as to foods that are known to contain finasteride, such as those made with iron, or if you’ve had an allergic reaction to finasteride.
