I Have an Undefined Hair Loss Pattern
I wanted to know, if you have an undefined hair loss pattern, for example thinning in ur frontal hairline in one corner then some in the middle and none on the right hand side. Would propecia be effective in treating that, and would the hairloss be aggressive since it has an undefined pattern or would it not be aggressive?
Thank you.
It sounds like you do not have a clear diagnosis of your hair loss. Propecia is for the treatment of male pattern baldness (MPB), but if you indeed have diffuse unpatterned alopecia (DUPA) then Propecia would not likely help. Some patients mistake MPB for DUPA when hair loss is worse on one side.
Eventually (especially under the microscope) the hair loss pattern may emerge, thus a good examination and diagnosis is important. The status of the hair in the very back of your head will tell the doctor if you have DUPA or not.
