Most of us take a healthy mane for granted. There are many who constantly crop off their luxurious mane to near baldness, just because it gets too difficult to manage. Thick hair might take a little attention and some amount of time to look tame, but it is not quite as frustrating as having a balding head.
Hair loss, especially male pattern hair loss – where hair disappears from the forehead to the crown, leaving a horse shoe patch of hair behind the head – can be a cause of major confidence issues in young men. Many young men are faced with this kind of genetic hair loss, which, being genetic, is unavoidable. In times past, there was little else to do but either wear a hat – proclaiming it to be a style statement – or to don a wig. There are now treatments, like hair implants or oral medication – like Propecia.
Though hair implants are a good option for those with severe hair loss, they can be disastrous if not done by experts. The advantage of Propecia is that it is not a temporary fix: it treats hair loss at the root, by inhibiting the production of the hormone that causes the hair loss. This could make a tremendous difference to someone’s life, and help boost their confidence to a level they thought they might never experience again.If you have been prescribed Propecia by your doctor, or are waiting for a consultation, please feel free to contact us at Menscare for more information, or to buy it online.
Propecia is an absolutely safe drug, except for pregnant women and children. Though completely safe for use by men, this finasteride-containing male pattern baldness drug is to be handled carefully in households with expectant mothers or children, because this drug works by inhibiting the male hormone DHT, essential for the development of male sex organs in foetuses and young children.
Ironically, it is DHT which is the cause of male pattern baldness, too. DHT is a natural male hormone, and is in fact essential for men during the early years, until their sex organs are developed. In most adult males, the level of DHT in their body decreases with age. However, in some men it is found in higher levels, and that ultimately leads to the balding condition of male pattern hair loss.
Propecia or Finasteride works by inhibiting the production of an enzyme that transforms testosterone to DHT, and this in turn could hinder the development of male genitalia in foetuses or young children, if they are exposed to it directly. The tablets are usually coated, and do not pose any risk under normal circumstances, but you shouldn’t break them into smaller pieces.
The drug does not pose any risk if a male consuming the tablets is planning a family, as this is not transferred through semen. It is an absolutely safe drug, as long as you take a bit of extra care to keep these tablets safely away from women and children. At Menscare, we can answer your questions, and help with hair loss.
You may have been losing your hair for quite some time before you finally decide to seek some help. After every possible treatment – from pepper poultice to hot oil massage – you may hear of a product called Propecia.
Upon first hearing of Propecia, some men read all the reviews, order a course and start dreaming again of their fuller head of hair. They diligently take up the treatment without missing a pill and follow all the instructions right to the letter. If however, a few weeks into the treatment you find your hair is not as full as you would like, with hair shedding like never before, do not panic.
This is just one of the phases of the treatment – the ‘shedding phase’. Though quite alarming, this is in fact a good sign that the medication is working for you. Propecia works by inhibiting the current growth cycle of your hair, and stimulating new hair growth from the follicles. It is just a temporary phase, and is a natural part of the treatment.
Many lose heart at this stage, and are even tempted to stop the treatment. If you can stay with it during this stage, and weather through it bravely, then you can consider yourself closer to your dream of sporting a fuller mane. Patience and perseverance are the key here. Do not despair – you will soon find newer, healthier strands emerging from those follicles which once held those thinning strands. If you want to know more, just ask us here at Menscare – we are only too happy to help.
Some bald people call a clean-shaven head a style statement. Well, it may be if you can carry it off with flair. However, it can be a mere trick to hide the embarrassing little hairless patch spreading from the temples over the scalp. Many young men are left with little option but to sport a clean-shaven head and it may not suit the shape of their skull.
Male Pattern Hair Loss (MPHL) is one of the most severe hair problems faced by most young men today. This kind of hair loss which starts at the temples in the form of a growing widow’s peak, proceeds gradually towards the vertex and spreads to the back of the head. Mainly attributed to the increased levels of a male hormone DHT (DiHydro Testosterone), this type of hair loss is seen in men of all ages. Evidently, the most effective treatment involves the administration of DHT-inhibiting substances, like finasterade.
Propecia or finasterade which is now the most widely used medication for Male Pattern Hair Loss Treatment is an oral drug that inhibits the production of the enzyme 5-alpha reductase. This enzyme converts testosterone in the male body to DHT.
About six months of treatment with Propecia has been found to bring about significant results. If you are just twenty-something and have spotted signs of an impending bald head, it is best that you seek attention without delay – if you don’t much fancy wearing hats in summer. For those of who you are interested in buying your medication online, we at Menscare will ensure that it is delivered to you discreetly the very next day.
Hair loss is a problem that has been afflicting men for centuries. From ground green pepper to medicated clay packs, men have never shown any hesitation in trying out even the weirdest of concoctions just to attempt to get their diminishing head of hair to flourish. However, what we often fail to realise is that hair needs as much care from within as from outside. It is important to get occasional head massages and apply good conditioning agents and oils to keep the hair looking shiny and well-textured.
Similarly, a balanced diet, proper nutrition, good sleep and adequate rest are essential to keep the hair healthy from the roots. It is also important to keep a close watch on the changes of your body, to nip any problems right in the bud. Most people are usually careless about the small bodily changes, and end up having to treat for serious conditions in the future.
If you notice any thinning of your hair or a receding hair line, make sure you consult your doctor without fail. It could sometimes be due to hormonal imbalances, or internal problems. Under such conditions, you can prevent further hair loss by taking treatment as early as possible. Propecia is the popular drug that doctors now prescribe for hair loss in men. Though this can be purchased online, it is best done after seeing your GP. However, if you feel you need friendly advice or information, don’t hesitate to contact us at Menscare.
Many of us have heard that balding in men is mainly due to the male sex hormone DHT. As laymen, it is a fair enough to doubt whether inhibiting the production of a male hormone could have adverse side effects. The fact is that the process is not harmful to the body.
DHT is a hormone which is produced in the testes, prostate gland and hair follicles of men. Though this hormone is essential for the development of genitals in the male baby foetus, it is not of particular use in grown men. However, this hormone is found in moderate amounts even in the adult male body and this turns out to be harmful when it exceeds a certain level. In higher amounts DHT cannot only lead to embarrassing hair loss, but can also result in severe conditions like prostate cancer.
As a result, it is in no way harmful to the body to inhibit the formation of the hormone. The popular medication used for the treatment of hair loss in men is an inhibitor known as Propecia. This drug arrests the formation of 5 alpha-reductase, which is an enzyme that converts testosterone in men to DHT. So, if it is an uncertainty regarding safety that is keeping you from going for hair loss medication, you can be assured that it is absolutely safe for use. For any assistance or expert advice, feel free to contact us at Menscare.
Most men experience some form of hair loss at some point in their life. If you lose hair as a teenager, you would probably assume that it is because you roam around a lot in your baseball cap or motorcycle helmet or because you are not eating right. In your twenties, you might blame it on the stress and pressure at work, and when you are way into middle age you could just resign to the fact that your are probably beginning to grow old.
Many men accept hair loss as inevitable, and end up going bald at a young age due to the lack of proper treatment. Though physical and emotional stress can lead to hair loss, the major reason for baldness in men is the increased production of the hormone DHT. Hair loss induced by DHT could start at a very early age, and could progress to baldness on the vertex (top of the head) and the mid scalp area, if left untreated.
When baldness was earlier considered as inherited and mostly incurable, there are now treatments to arrest the hair loss, and induce hair growth by inhibiting the production of DHT in the body. Propecia is one of the most common prescription medications for treating this kind of male pattern hair loss.
If you notice a receding hair line or unusual hair loss, do not resort to home remedies. With the right treatment, you can get a healthy mane back in less than six months. For more information on Propecia, contact our friendly team at Menscare.
There are some who say that hair loss is hereditary. They say that our parents carry the bald gene. Others say that it is a natural process of ageing and others say that it could be caused due to stress. Whatever the reasons are, there is no reason to stress about hair loss.
Here at Menscare we strive to become the number one shop for all men’s health care needs which includes hair loss or thinning hair. One of our products that we have available that has proven quite successful is Propecia.
It has been found by researchers that hair loss in males is caused by increased levels of DHT. Essentially what that means is that men produce this chemical throughout their lives, and later in life it starts to create pattern hair loss.
Does Propecia stop it or slow it down
Propecia effectively inhibits the production of DHT and not only slows down the thinning process but also stops hair loss overall. Now, depending on how far gone your hair is by the time you start to use this product will depend on the type of results you will get.
Typically men begin to see results in 6 months but there have been cases reported where men have seen improved results in as little as 3 months. Keep in mind that Propecia will not grow new hair for you, but it will substantially slow down your already thinning hair and inhibit the production of DHT which leads to baldness.
