Finasteride 1mg blocks the conversion of testosterone to DHT by blocking the enzyme 5-alpha reductase.

Clinical trials found that a daily dose of 1 milligram of finasteride halted hair loss in 86% of men, while 65% experienced a significant increase in hair growth.

Take one tablet daily - as simple as that!

Finasteride is generally well tolerated. Less common side effects can include anxiety, depression, gynecomastia, suicidal ideation, decreased libido, erectile dysfunction, and decrease in semen load. Some patients reported these symptoms continuing after treatment cessation. Some studies suggest a potential increased risk of high grade prostate cancer at 5mg daily, not at 1mg daily. If you experience any concerning side effects, stop the medication and consult with your doctor.

You might not notice much the first 1-2 months. However, at 3 to 6 months you may appreciate that hair loss has halted or slowed down , and may even see some regrowth. At 6-9 months you may notice that hair loss has stopped or slowed down significantly, and may see obvious signs of regrowth.
