Propecia Q&A Journal – Updated Daily!

Propecia is a prescription drug, only for men, due to adverse effects on women, to encourage hair growth.
Saw palmetto is a natural plant which has been shown in tests to do the same (and women can safely use it for hair growth). It can be purchased at health food/ all natural stores or aisles of larger department stores. Should a person only use one at a time? Are their any side effects if both are taken together?

Answer:

Sounds like that combination would do quite the number on your prostate. Judging by the findings of the study posted below, it was concluded that Saw Palmetto only reduces the concentration of DHT in prostate tissue, and has no substantial effect on DHT levels in the blood, thus, probably isn’t useful for MPB.

But if you’re looking to shrink your prostate via involution, this would be effective. I’m not a doctor but if you’re worried about side effects, I would say taking both fin and saw palmetto increases your risk of developing impotence from androgen deprivation.

Good luck

I’m considering to take the drug called propecia which is an oral tablet and is intended to stop male pattern hair loss.

I need to know if this drug can change the sperm in men and cause diasbility in children or any kind of birth defecencies or or complications that it may cause if a man who is taking it (without his partner taking the tablet) is also intending to have kids later on in life.

Are there any studies/experiences in this regard?

PS: the drug has been around since 1998.

Answer:

My book says that it can cause impotence, decreased volume of ejaculate, decreased libido. Women who are or are planning on becoming pregnant should not handle crushed tablets because of the risk of adverse effects on a male fetus. Try a search engine for studies. Ask the doctor you plan to get your medication from if it is excreted in seamen.

if anybody has any real knowledge or experience with this subject, please let me know. I seem to be thinning and losing all over my scalp. Dont want bad side effects like losing sex drive. Also, Im thinking of taking anti anxiety medication. I feel like my hair loss is correlated with my anxiety, anyone else feel this way???

Answer:

Rogaine (minoxidil) is the best and most effective in terms of drugs for hairloss. It is also the only FDA approved drug for this purpose. Don’t worry about losing your sex drive with rogaine…

I am only 21 yearsold and started noticing thinning of my hair back last summer. I was also on a 6 month course of accutance which can cause hairloss but the actual thinning did start before i ever took the drug, and my mom’s side of the family has considerable hairloss so it’s most likely genetic. Anyway, is there anyone out there who is currently on propecia or has been and if so does it actually work? How long does one need to be on the medication for? Did you expierience any side effects etc? all the side effects out there on the internet such as ed, gyno, etc that tons of guys on it go through scare the crap out of me. any information would be greatly appreciated thanks.

Answer:

I have used it for probably around 3 years now. Due to the high prices, I order the generic version from outside the USA. Everyone noticed a big difference in my hair. Some even accused me of dying my hair, i guess because it got thicker so it looked darker. I was quite a bit older than you when i started using it at 40 years old. I am 43 and i can send you before and after pics. I am fighting heredity also, my dad was slick on the top at around 35. There is absolutely no loss of sex drive for me! That would defeat the purpose of having more hair to start with, lol.

26 and losing hair, I want to know what type of doctor I need to see in order to get a prescription for propecia/prosca. If anyone in TORONTO knows a good doctor, please let me know!

Answer:

A dermatologist can best diagnose androgenetic alopecia (male pattern baldness) and distinguish it from other types of hairloss. Any physician with a license to practice can prescribe the medication, but your best bet is to see a dermatologist. If it’s a clear cut case, then an internist or a family practitioner can determine is propecia is indicated.

Proscar would be prescribed by a urologist as its indication at the 5 mg dose is for the treatment of BPH.

Just wanted some info on propecia’s ingridients and what hormones in the body does it affect to help promote hair growth?

Answer:

It’s a 5-Alpha Reductase Inhibitor. 5-alpha reductase aids in breaking down testosterone into DHT (dihydro-testosterone) implicated in male-pattern alopecia.

Hopes this helps. Cheers.

Answer:

Is Propecia used for thinning hair? My hair is getting very thin, its very depressing! So far I’ve tried the Nioxin shampoo and conditioner, that didn’t make hair grow but it did maintain what I had…I didn’t see so much come out in the shower. Right now I am taking an over the counter treatment called “Nu Hair”. I saw the ad in “Health” magazine with a coupon. I just started it, but I feel confident in it. Are you taking a vitamin with Biotin in it? Biotin is very important in hair growth! Good luck!
