At 26 I already had a noticeable birds nest on top and a pillow full of hair each morning. Now, after taking Propecia for a year I am convinced (doctor as well) that the hair loss has stopped and I have already begun to regrow. Looking at before and after pictures the difference is night and day.
HERE IS A TIP THAT VERY FEW PRESCRIBING DOCTORS ARE AWARE OF:
The chemical make up of Propecia is exactly the same as Proscar (aka FINASTERIDE). Finasteride was initially used to treat benign prostatic hyperplasia and marketed was as Proscar. It was later that they realized they could cash in on the “end to hair loss” side effect and remarket the drug under a different name, Propecia, to a different audience at a greater cost.
Proscar comes in 5 mg. pills and Propecia in 1 mg pills.
(30) 1mg. pills of Propecia are $59.99 at Walgreen’s.
(30) 5mg. pills of Proscar are $99.99. When each pill is cut into 1.25mg quarters, these 30 pills are the equivalent of 120 Propecia doses. A significant cost savings!
Don't worry about the slightly larger dose, 1mg. v. 1.25mg. Initially, Propecia was recommended at doses of 5-10mg. with no side effects or greater effectiveness.
Bottom line: Take Proscar, save money and hair.
