I am a 33yr old male. I first experienced hair loss at age 23. At age 25, Propecia was available on the market so I tried it. I got good results but decided after going back and forth a few times that I did not want to have to get a prescription and take a pill every day. Is there any other proven remedy? I notice celebrities such as Tiger Woods, Matthew McConaughey, Eric Lindros, and Bruce Springsteen to name a few, reverse their balding trend. Help me make the most informed decision please.
Propecia will help reverse some of your hair loss at a young age. Stopping it is not a wise decision. Although Propecia is a wonderful drug, I believe that this drug has its limits and will not reverse balding that is stable like a hair transplant will. There are many celebrities that I know of personally who have had multiple hair transplants and continue to take Propecia to prevent further hair loss. I only wish they would let me use their names, however I respect their wishes and take patient confidentiality very seriously.
