Male pattern hair loss (androgenetic alopecia) is caused by dihydrotestosterone (DHT) a hormone that shrinks hair follicles until they stop producing visible hair. DHT is responsible for approximately 95% of all male hair loss.
Finasteride works by inhibiting the enzyme 5-alpha reductase, which converts testosterone into DHT. By reducing DHT levels by approximately 70%, Finasteride stops follicle miniaturization and allows weakened follicles to recover and produce thicker, healthier hair.
Clinical studies spanning over 5 years have shown that 85% of men taking Finasteride 1mg daily maintained their existing hair, and 66% experienced measurable new hair regrowth particularly in the crown and mid-scalp areas.
