Description
Propecia is a remedy for baldness in men with mild to moderate hair loss on the top of the head and the front of the mid-scalp area. It increases hair growth, improves hair regrowth, and slows down ha
ir loss. It works only on scalp hair and does not affect hair on other parts of the body.
You may begin to see improvement as early as 3 months after you begin taking Propecia, but for many
men it takes longer. The improvement lasts only as long as you take the drug; if you stop, new hair growth will cease and hair loss will resume.
Propecia is a low-dose form of Proscar, a dru
g prescribed for prostate enlargement.

have to take this medicine for at least 6 months to see the full effect.
