Hair Care – Hair Loss – Anti-Androgens: Finasteride, Propecia, Proscar Side Effects & Hair Regrowth

September 24, 2016August 28, 2019 Matt

This is where I talk about the advantages, disadvantage, benefits & side effects of using finasteride, propecia, proscar for stopping hair loss and for hair growth.

Here are the video breakdown (main points):

0:54 tips about the dos and don’t’s when dealing with your hair loss.

1:02 I’d like to talk about finasteride, propecia and proscar today — these are one of the only few FDA approved “products” or “treatments” that are being prescribed and recommended by doctors and dermatologists all over, they’re even being openly sold over the counter at all the major pharmacies everywhere…

1:28 ask any doctor, ask any hair care expert or dermatologist on the proven methods to treat hair loss — and they will usually give you 2 answers. That is for you to either use no.1 — minoxidil or no.2 — finasteride, proscar or propecia.

2:02 Finasteride (brand names Proscar and Propecia by Merck, amongst other generic names) is a synthetic drug for the treatment of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) and male pattern baldness (MPB).

2:24 In clinical studies, finasteride, like minoxidil, was shown to work on both the crown areas and the hairline, but is most successful in the crown area.

2:46 this drug comes with some SERIOUS side effects.

2:55 Google “finasteride side effects” and you’ll easily find hundreds of cases

3:05 Side effects of finasteride mainly include, NOW CHECK THIS OUT: impotence, abnormal ejaculation, decreased ejaculatory volume, abnormal sexual function, gynecomastia, erectile dysfunction and testicular pain.

3:33 resolution occurred in men who discontinued therapy with finasteride due to these side effects and in most men who continued therapy. The PPI also states that patients have reported persisting erectile dysfunction despite discontinuing the drug.

3:55 Merck added depression as a side effect of finasteride.

4:03 An FDA panel refused to recommend approval of the drug Propecia for male pattern baldness.

4:13 Although it was not disputing its efficacy, the committee members expressed some concerns about the possibility of long-term side effects on sexual function and possibly even fertility, which arose because of some evidence of diminished ejaculate levels.

4:37 Finasteride is effective ONLY FOR AS LONG AS IT IS TAKEN; it has been clinically proven that all hair gained or maintained using this drug is lost within 6–12 months of ceasing therapy.

4:51 Just like minoxidil, the moment you stop taking it, you start losing your hair again. All of it. In some cases, you may lose even MORE hair than you previously did!

5:04 whatever the doctor tells you… stay away from this drug AT ALL COSTS!

6:02 these chemicals & drugs, although they have been proven to grow back your hair and stop hair loss, it’s just not WORTH even trying them out given all the potential risks for you.

6:17 What I would recommend instead, is to go ALL NATURAL, go for something that contains NO drugs, no chemicals, something that is 100% herbal, like the ones you see at BaldingSerum.com

6:33 Whether you’re suffering from hair loss, hair thinning, dandruff, scalp itchiness or even premature gray & white hair problems, it just works its magic, whatever the case.

Rooting for you,

Marc
