Any Patients Take Propecia and Still Have Shock Loss?

Just wondering as you have said a few times that being on propecia will decrease your chance shock loss after a hair transplant if you are under 30.

Have you had any patients under 30 who have had shock loss after being on propecia for a considerable period of time? And if so to what extent was the loss? Thanks

When I saw the great majority of shock loss cases, it was before the availability of Propecia (early 90s). Since that time, most of my patients take Propecia to protect themselves from shock loss, and there was far less of the fall out after the surgery… but it did still occur for some.

I don’t have statistics on the extent of loss or precise age, though.
