Why My Hair Isn't Hair-FreeByJenny McCarthy

May 24, 2005 7:30�My hair is fine but it's got some "honey-like" things sticking out in my scalp. I really need to see if my hair gets better.

I've been taking finasteride since I was 18 or so. I have a very sensitive scalp, so my doctor didn't see any difference. But I have my hair, and it's still fine. I was wondering if you could tell me more about it because I was just looking to see if I was losing it at all.

Thanks!

I've been taking finasteride for about two years now and it's been working for about 4 months now. It's just that I don't have any hair at all.

My hair is still fine, although I am getting more and more sensitive to it. It's been starting to take me a while to notice any change, but my hair has not grown any thicker or fuller.

Can you tell me more about the hair loss I have?

What are the side effects of finasteride?

I took it for about a year. I had a very healthy sex life. But then I began noticing my hair thinning and losing some of it. I'm not sure if it was due to finasteride or something else, but if it was just the side effect, I don't want to be concerned. If I were concerned, I would have taken a pill and not taken finasteride. So far, I'm pretty sure it's nothing.

I was taking finasteride for a year and noticed a few side effects, but they were minor. But I was also concerned about the hair loss.

I don't think I have ever heard of finasteride being the cause of hair loss in women. I don't think I have ever experienced it in women. I think it might be due to something else.

I have been taking finasteride for about a year now and I'm noticing some of my hair getting better. I don't want to be concerned about that. I think I'm fine with it.

Do you have any other advice or advice for women who have noticed some hair loss?

My hair is fine, but it's getting thicker and fuller every few months. I'm noticing some of the hair coming out of the sides of my scalp. When I look at it I see a little bit of a "honey-like" thing in the top part of my head.

I have noticed it on my back and it's getting thicker and fuller every few months. But I'm not sure if that's the cause of the hair loss. I just know it's not. I'm concerned and if I have any questions or thoughts about it, I would be happy to share it with you.

Thanks

I'm not sure if it's the cause of my hair loss, but I do notice some of the hair getting thicker and fuller on my top and my bottom. I'm not sure if I have any hair at all.

I'm also concerned about the hair loss. I think the cause is probably finasteride. I'm not sure how much it would be at all, but if I am concerned, I can be a little worried.

I'm going to keep this in mind because it's more than I thought.

Also, I've never experienced anything like it before, but I'm wondering if someone could share their experiences and advice for women who are concerned about their hair loss.

I've been taking finasteride for a long time and I'm noticing some of my hair getting thicker and fuller. When I look at it, I see a small "honey-like" thing in my head.

Background:The development of oral finasteride in Australia is still a subject of controversy. This study aims to compare the efficacy of finasteride and minoxidil in treating hair loss.

Methods:Hair transplantation was performed in 18 patients with male-pattern hair loss. Finasteride and minoxidil were administered every 6 months. The hair regrowth rate was assessed by hair density and total hair count on an objective scale, as well as the hair thickness in the frontal (topical) and frontal (transdermal) planes using a semi-quantitative photographic method. The percentage of hair regrowth was also determined by photography. Finasteride and minoxidil were compared in 18 patients with hair loss: 18 patients with male-pattern hair loss (15 patients with a mean age of 59 years); 16 patients with female-pattern hair loss (17 patients with a mean age of 59 years).

Results:Finasteride and minoxidil significantly reduced the percentage of hair regrowth on an objective scale, but not total hair count. The hair thickness in the frontal and transdermal planes was significantly reduced by finasteride treatment; the percentage of hair regrowth was significantly reduced by minoxidil treatment. Both drugs significantly improved hair thickness and hair regrowth rate in both groups, regardless of the hair type. A significant improvement was also noted in the total hair count, but not in the percentage of hair regrowth. The difference in the percentage of hair regrowth between finasteride and minoxidil treatment was statistically significant (p < 0.05). The percentage of hair regrowth was also significantly decreased by finasteride treatment. Both drugs were able to improve hair thickness and hair regrowth in both groups of patients.

Conclusions:Finasteride and minoxidil were effective in treating hair loss in patients with male-pattern hair loss.

Hair transplantation is now considered a potential treatment for male-pattern hair loss. This article presents a comparison of hair transplantation treatments in 18 patients. Hair transplantation, a surgical technique for the treatment of hair loss, has been used for over 50 years. The most common type of hair transplantation is the subcutaneous and intramuscular injection of minoxidil solution. In comparison with subcutaneous injections, the results are comparable. This makes the subcutaneous approach a feasible option for patients who have difficulty swallowing the injections. The results of the current study suggest that the subcutaneous approach offers more convenient and cost-effective options for patients who need to have hair transplantation.

The most common type of hair transplantation is the subcutaneous injection of minoxidil solution.

In the current study, a subcutaneous injection of minoxidil solution was used as a single treatment for hair loss, and patients were given either 5% or 10% of minoxidil. After 6 months, the hair regrowth rate and the percentage of hair regrowth were significantly reduced, and the hair thickness was reduced significantly. The hair regrowth rate and the percentage of hair regrowth were significantly reduced by 5% and 5%, respectively. The percentage of hair regrowth was also significantly reduced by 5% compared to the other treatments. A significant reduction in the hair thickness was also noted in the scalp compared to the other treatments, although this was not statistically significant. The decrease in the percentage of hair regrowth was statistically significant in both the 5% and 10% minoxidil treatments. The results of this study suggest that the subcutaneous approach offers more convenient and cost-effective options for patients who need to have hair transplantation.

Minoxidil is a vasodilator, and the results of this study were consistent with previous studies. In the current study, patients who received oral minoxidil solution had significantly better hair regrowth than those who received a topical minoxidil solution. This difference was statistically significant (p < 0.05) with a small but statistically significant difference in hair thickness. A significant difference in hair regrowth rates was noted in the 5% and 10% minoxidil treatments.

Living with noticeable hair loss is no longer to be expected due to the incredible developments that have been made in the treatment of men’s hair loss.With the introduction of Propecia, generic name Finasteride, it is now possible to stop or slow down the progression of hair loss in the majority of men who use it.

Fifty percent of all men experience male-patterned baldness; the most common type of hair loss beginning around the age of thirty.

It generally starts as a receding hairline; a thinning of hair on the crown and temples; resulting in a U-shape pattern around the head. In some rare cases, a male may end up completely bald.

The condition is genetic; caused by an abundance of the male hormone dihydrotestosterone (DHT) which causes the hair follicles to become weak and eventually inactive, resulting in a lack of hair re-growth. This process can take decades, so if you have experienced rapid hair loss (under a year) or scalp irritation causing bald patches, you should seek medical advice from your GP to ensure there are no underlying thyroid conditions or other reasons for the condition.

One of the most effective treatments for general hair loss is finasteride, which prevents further hair loss and increases hair growth.

Finasteride for hair loss treatment

According to Dr Gedd-Joon So, Clinical Professor, Medical Genetics, and the Medical Sciences, College of Medicine, Geddy Sahir University, the NHS variety of finasteride tablets available for hair loss treatment is a “broad-spectrum, fast-acting medication that helps stop hair loss and help restore hair in men with specific hair loss conditions”.

The active ingredient, 5α-reductase, inhibits the production of DHT, allowing the hair follicles to resume their growth state, thus preventing further hair loss.

Finasteride for men’s hair loss treatmentDr Gedd-Joon So, Clinical Professor, Medical Genetics College of the University of the Loth alpha reductase inhibitors (finasteride and dutasteride) (5α-reductase inhibitors) are drugs that inhibit the production of DHT, a hormone that is known to be affected by male-pattern baldness, by hair follicles in the scalp, also known as the vertex or the top of the head.

By targeting the enzyme 5α-reductase, finasteride is believed to help stop male-pattern baldness, reduce hair loss and, most importantly, help restore hair in men with hair loss who are at least 11 years old.

Finasteride 5mg tablets are for men who are starting treatment with Propecia or Finasteride to treat an enlarged prostate (benign prostatic hyperplasia-BPH). These tablets are taken by mouth once a day with or without food.
