Propecia is a prescription treatment for hair loss in men. Propecia containing finasteride as active ingredient has been studied in numerous clinical studies as most effective hair loss treatment method stopping potential hair loss and promoting hair re growth at the same time. Propecia is the first FDA approved prescription treatment for male pattern hair loss (male pattern baldness).

Male pattern baldness is medically called androgenetic alopecia. Reason behind this is male hormones (androgens) and hereditary factors (genetic) that determine the loss of hair. Enzyme 5 alpha reductase converts the male hormone testosterone into Dihydrotestosterone (DHT) and DHT is the main cause for hair loss in men. Propecia works by blocking the enzyme 5 alpha reductase that lowers the levels of DHT in the body which further normalizes hair growth and reverses hair loss.

With advent in internet technology, you can also buy Propecia online. You can do this simply by completing an online medical questionnaire. Subsequently, a licensed physician of online pharmacy will review your medical history and current medical conditions.
