Stopping Early Hair Loss with Propecia
I just started loose my hair from the front side.Male pattern(Type 1). I am 28 years old and i started to use propecia 3 months ago. There is no proof that propecia stops balding on the front of the scalp. I feel like it is not helping. My father and my uncle they had lost their hair untill they are 45 and now they have type 3 male pattern baldness, no baldness at the top. We all have very thick hair. I just want to know,if their is anyway to stop hair loose. I am not worry about bring them back.At least for now.
Propecia has been proven to stop or slow hair loss down, provided it is started early enough in the balding process. The term ‘early enough’ varies with the genetics of the individual. Based upon the ‘Class 1’ pattern, you may just be migrating your frontal hairline to the mature position. If your father and uncle had a Class 3 pattern, the slowing of your hair loss is highly probable, but three months is just not enough time.
Many men do not notice their frontal hair loss until hair miniaturation is almost complete, and by that time Propecia will not be effective in the front. Since balding in the crown is generally slower, starting Propecia when it is too late for the frontal area, may still be early enough to work for balding in the crown.
As you have only been on Propecia for three months, you may want to give it some more time- it can take nine to twelve months of staying on Propecia before you will see the difference. I also suggest that you take a photo of your frontal balding now with your brow lifted high so that the creases show up well. Once a month photographs with comparasons over time will show subtle changes we might not see on close daily inspection.
