How does it work?

Finpecia is very effective in treating hair loss. It is one of the most used treatments to stop hair loss in men. Its key ingredient, finasteride, plays a critical role in solving the problem of male pattern baldness. Hormonal imbalance is the main reason for hair loss in men. It is due to the disproportionate amount of dihydrotestosterone (DHT) produced in the body which leads to the problem of hair loss. This DHT moves into the hair follicles, damaging them and disrupting the supply of nutrients to the hair, thus weakening the hair and causing hair loss. It is here that this drug plays an important role.

It prevents the formation of dihydrotestosterone from testosterone by inhibiting the enzyme type II alpha reductase. In this way you are stopping hair loss. This hair loss treatment maintains low levels of dihydrotestosterone in the body; Due to this, testosterone levels in the body increase and promote hair growth.
