Propecia is one of two FDA-approved drugs for treating hair loss. Propecia is an oral medication that suppresses DHT, the hormone that causes male-pattern baldness. Your genes target the DHT-sensitive hair follicles, causing them to shrink, which leads to hair loss. Propecia pills stop the development of DHT hormones, in turn stopping hair loss. The product has been found to stop further hair loss in 60 percent of men and in some cases even reverse hair loss to some degree.
