RefreshFinasteride is used to treat men with benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) and male pattern hair loss, also called androgenetic alopecia. BPH is caused by an enlarged prostate. Men with BPH usually have difficulty urinating, a decreased flow of urination, hesitation at the beginning of urination, and a need to get up at night to urinate. Finasteride will make these symptoms less severe and reduce the chance that prostate surgery will be needed. It may be used alone or in combination with other medicines such as an alpha-blocker to treat BPH. For men with hair loss, finasteride will increase the number of scalp hairs but will not increase the amount of body hair.
Finasteride blocks the action of an enzyme called 5-alpha-reductase. This enzyme changes testosterone to another hormone that causes the prostate to grow or hair loss in males. It will increase testosterone levels in the body, which decreases prostate size and increases hair growth on the scalp. The effect of finasteride on the prostate and scalp will only last as long as the medicine is taken. When it is stopped, the prostate begins to grow again and the hair will be lost.

Read More Details 2. What is Finasteride (1mg) and what is it used for?Finasteride (1mg) is primarily used to treat male pattern hair loss (androgenetic alopecia) in men to stop hair loss and promote new hair growth. Finasteride works by inhibiting the production of dihydrotestosterone (DHT), a hormone that can contribute to hair loss. This reduces the conversion of testosterone to DHT, which can then stimulate hair growth. Finasteride can be used in conjunction with other medications to help reduce the risk of hair loss. What is Finasteride (1mg) available in isuroprogesterone patches. These patches contain an extract of the rat's liver. The extract is administered by intracavernosal injection once daily, usually twice a day. Read more about Finasteride (1mg) below.

The most common side effects of Proscar include a decreased interest in sexual intercourse, inability to have or keep an erection, or a loss in sexual ability, desire, drive or performance. Talk to your doctor or a healthcare professional if symptoms persist or are severe.
You should contact your doctor immediately if you experience any of the following symptoms:
While rare, these symptoms require immediate medical attention. This is not a complete list of side effects associated with finasteride. Studies have shown that finasteride can increase your risk of developing breast cancer or high-grade prostate cancer, which spreads and grows more rapidly than other types of prostate cancer.
Studies have also shown that Proscar can affect the results of the prostate-specific antigen (PSA) test, which may be used to detect prostate cancer. Be sure to tell your healthcare provider that you are taking finasteride so that they are aware of any medication interference with PSA testing.
Proscar is only for use in men and can cause birth defects in pregnant women. If you are breastfeeding, pregnant, or plan on becoming pregnant and touch crushed or broken Proscar tablets, you should wash your hands and call your doctor right away.
Read More Moreby Thomas BussFinasteride is a 5-alpha reductase inhibitor used primarily in the treatment of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) in men. It works by reducing the amount of a natural body hormone, dihydrotestosterone (DHT), that causes the prostate to grow. BPH is a progressive condition that begins at the end of the growth phase and is characterized by the urothelium (a tube that connects the bladder and the prostate) growing larger, resulting in a enlarged prostate. Symptoms of BPH include frequent urinary tract infections (UTI), chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), and the development of a male breast cancer (noted in depth in a 2014 analysis of five studies in men with BPH).
In men with BPH, finasteride reduces the size of the bladder and prostate and can be used to treat the symptoms of BPH by reducing symptoms of frequent urinary tract infections, includingUTI. In women with BPH, finasteride reduces size of the prostate and can be used to treat the symptoms of BPH by reducing symptoms of COPD and urinary tract infection.
Finasteride is also used to treat symptoms of benign prostatic hyperplasia in combination with an alpha-blocker to reduce the risk of recurrent recurrent urinary tract infections in women. In women, the use of finasteride has been shown to reduce the risk of recurrent UTIs.
DHT is a derivative of a hormone called DHT 1,2,2-tetrahydrolipstatin (DHT 1-2-3). The hormone is essential for the growth of the prostate and has an impact on how it is regulated. Finasteride inhibits the enzyme 5-alpha reductase, which is responsible for converting testosterone into DHT. By reducing DHT levels in the body, finasteride helps to decrease the risk of developing BPH and helps to improve symptoms of BPH.
Read MoreRead MoreBPH is the most common type of prostate cancer with about 2 in 10 men develop it. BPH is characterized by the development of symptomatic prostate cancer in men who have BPH. The average age of men with BPH is 46, and the median age of onset is 55 years. Symptoms of BPH include frequent urinary tract infections (UTIs), chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), and the development of a male breast cancer (noted in depth in a 2014 analysis of five studies in men with BPH).
The 5-alpha reductase inhibitor finasteride works by reducing the amount of a natural body hormone, dihydrotestosterone (DHT), that causes the prostate to grow. Lowering DHT can therefore help to decrease the risk of developing a recurrence of a benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) cancer in men who have BPH. Lowering DHT can also help to improve symptoms of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) by reducing symptoms of COPD and urinary tract infection.
This summary summarizes the key findings and implications for treatment of male pattern hair loss (androgenetic alopecia) and benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH).
Introduction
The hair follicles, which line the scalp, are the primary targets for 5-alpha-reductase inhibitors ( 5-ARIs). 5-ARIs, such as finasteride (Proscar), and dutasteride (Propecia), inhibit the production of dihydrotestosterone (DHT), a hormone that can contribute to hair loss. DHT is responsible for hair follicles growing in the scalp, which in turn contribute to hair loss. Finasteride (Propecia) and dutasteride are both 5-ARIs that inhibit the enzyme 5-AR in the scalp.
Both medications target the conversion of testosterone into dihydrotestosterone (DHT), a hormone that can contribute to hair loss. DHT is an essential component of the hair follicles that line the scalp. Finasteride (Propecia) and dutasteride inhibit 5-AR, leading to changes in DHT levels and the conversion of testosterone into DHT in the scalp. This is why these two medications are both effective treatments for male pattern hair loss (androgenetic alopecia) and benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH).
Finasteride (Proscar) has been available since the late 1990s, and dutasteride (Propecia) has since been introduced in the US in 1997. While both medications are primarily used to treat hair loss, they differ in their mechanisms of action, dosed area, and potential side effects. Finasteride (Proscar) is available in a tablet form and dutasteride in a gel form. Finasteride (Propecia) is also available in a capsule form and is used on an as-needed basis.
Both medications have been used to treat male pattern hair loss since the 1980s. Finasteride (Propecia) blocks the conversion of testosterone into DHT, leading to changes in DHT levels and the conversion of testosterone into DHT in the scalp. Propecia is a 5-ARRIptionized inhibitor of 5-ARRIation, while dutasteride (Propecia) inhibits 5-ARRIation.
Both 5-ARIs inhibit the enzyme 5-AR in the scalp. By blocking the conversion of testosterone to DHT, 5-ARIs can help to prevent hair loss and promote hair regrowth. Finasteride (Proscar) has a longer duration of action, which means that it can be used regularly to help slow down hair loss and promote hair regrowth.
The side effects of taking finasteride (Propecia) and dutasteride (Proscar) are similar; however, dutasteride (Propecia) has more extensive side effects and can cause more specific side effects, such as reduced libido and erectile dysfunction. Understanding the dynamics of the human body is crucial for effective treatment. In the face of ever-increasing prevalence of medical conditions, such as hair loss and BPH, and also in the face of growing hair, the treatment of male pattern hair loss (androgenetic alopecia) can be challenging. Finasteride (Proscar) can help to slow down hair loss and promote hair regrowth, while dutasteride (Propecia) can help to stimulate hair growth and prevent further hair loss.
The integration of genetic information into treatment plans is a critical step in discovering which drugs are most effective for a specific patient. Knowledge of the dynamics of the human body has the power to change treatment plans and lead to new therapies. This statement is not intended to address the treatment of male pattern hair loss or benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH).
