Taking Propecia at Age 57
- I am 57. Over the last 5 years I have suffered hair loss. I have consulted with three hair-loss experts. Two have said I should be on Propecia, one said at my age it will make no difference. Will it?
- I have four elevated liver counts. I do not drink or smoke, nor have I ever smoked or drank. Will taking Propecia have negative effects on my liver?
The value of Propecia should be determined after you have a diagnosis in hand for the balding process. How much miniaturizationdo you have as compared to balding? Propecia works well if the miniaturization process is well underway, but the hair still should have substantial volumes. With regard to your liver, what is your diagnosis as the cause of your liver problem? Doses of Propecia must be reduced when people have liver disease. I do not like internet medicine, because I like to see and bond with my patients. That is why you need a good doctor first, then a Master Plan to determine what to do next. Propecia may make a difference in the crown hair, even in a 57 year old.
