Can Propecia Prevent Hair Loss from Stress?
Hi Doc.
Can propecia prevent hairloss from stress? Can it stop stress from affecting my hair?? And can It bring back hair that was lost due to extreme stress? Not too much was lost, and since the stress ended right before starting Propecia, do you think that the med has enough time to kick in and save those poor lil old hairs??? (At the hairline.. the left corner has lost a bit of hair, I think beyond the mature hairline, about half an inch. There’s still hair but VERY low density, I can practically count them with my fingers.) Thanks Alot.I’ve asked many questions before, and I’m sure they weren’t answered since you had similar qs before. But I would REALLy appreciate it if you answered this one :) .
Thanks.
Propecia (finasteride) treats hair loss from genetic male pattern hair loss. It works for hair loss due to stress in those who have the genetic predisposition to hair loss and have miniaturization of the hair. That being said, stress can accelerate genetic male pattern hair loss.
