Hello, doc.
I’m a 25-year-old Chinese male. I’ve been suffering from hair loss since high school. I began to take Proscar a month ago. I have some questions:
- Will finasteride lose some of its effect when exposed to the air? Since I currently split a pill into 4 parts.
- I take part in sports very often like jogging, soccer. Do such sports do harm to my hair?
- What kind of foods will help the treatment of hair loss?
Thank you for any help.
- I do not like to give recommendations for how to manage drugs that are not the way the manufacturer engineered it to be. If I were to guess, I would keep any pills in a humidity free container if I were to do what you do.
- Sports are not harmful for your hair. In fact, as a way of managing stress, sports may help you keep your hair healthy as stress is one of the four causes of hair loss (when the genetic defect is present).
- The best diet is a well balanced one. Nothing magical about a good diet.
