Men Should Think Before Taking Propecia

In the world of hair loss, Propecia may perhaps be one of the most favored hair growth stimulator in the market today. In earlier times, Propecia was used to treat benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) under the brand name Proscar. Both Propecia and Proscar share a common generic name Finasteride. Patients who’d been using Proscar for treatment of BPH noticed an improvement in hair growth. This may be an irritating complication for patients, but for the drug companies, they’ve just found a pot of gold.

Propecia is an oral drug introduced specifically to treat hair loss; it has a different dosage from Proscar but of course, has the same effect – stimulate hair growth. Propecia stops hair loss by systemically inhibiting the enzyme 5-alpha-reductase. This enzyme is responsible for the conversion of testosterone to dihydrotestosterone (DHT).

DHT is a bald man’s nightmare. It’s the sole reason behind “male pattern baldness” or “female pattern baldness”. When you stop the development of DHT, then you stop hair loss.

Now is the point where everything gets tricky. DHT is an important hormone specifically men. In the womb, DHT is responsible for the development of baby boys. This hormone turns boys to men. You may say: “Hey, I’m 40 and I’m a man. Stopping DHT won’t affect me at my age.” Yes that’s true, you are a fully developed male but systemically inhibiting DHT can cause decreased libido. In fact, the side effects of Propecia are decreased libido, erectile dysfunction, and decreased volume of ejaculate. So guys, would you like lose your manliness for your hair?

If not, there are always better alternatives like Nisim Biofactors. Nisim Biofactors is also an inhibitor of DHT but the big difference is that it stops DHT LOCALLY on your scalp. Nisim Biofactors is applied topically on the scalp and not taken internally like Propecia, so it is safe to use and won’t affect your manliness.
