One a day will keep the depression away.
To many men (and women) today, the bathroom mirror is the mortal
enemy. Every day, you stumble into the bathroom, yank the toothbrush
out of its holder, and very reluctantly venture an eye into the
mirror above the sink.
What you see devitalizes you. It devastates you. What once sprung
so vivaciously from your head has now been replaced by a smooth,
shiny surface. In just a couple of years, it seems, your looks have
aged by ten years.
It’s a process that consumes you day by day, week by week. And
there’s nothing you can do to stop it.
Yes, you are going bald.
However, as helpless as it may feel, not everybody is taking this
seemingly inevitable fate sitting down.
Many Americans every day are opening up the medicine cabinet
behind that mirror to pull out the tabulated form of salvation. It’s
not the first product to treat hair loss and it certainly won’t be
the last, but Propecia is certainly winning the race when it comes
to foiling vanity’s worst nightmare.
At first, it looks a lot like your standard pain reliever or
aspirin pill. The pain that Propecia will ease you from, however, is
of a much different variety. As you probably know already, Propecia
is the first pill that has been proven to fight the process of hair
loss and in many cases, actually re-grow some hair.
Propecia is a tablet that is taken daily, with a month’s supply
generally running between $50 and $55.
And the fact that Propecia actually works, they’re saying, is
much more than just hair-say.
The facts are out. Granted, this study was done over the course
of two years of Propecia use, but 83 percent of balding men between
the ages of 18 and 41 maintained their hair count during the
experiment, while 66 percent of the group actually grew back a
considerable amount of hair.
The difference between Propecia and other products, like Rogaine,
for instance, is that Propecia grows back thicker, natural hair as
opposed to the limp “peach fuzz.” We won’t even mention that fishy
smell that Rogaine users often complain of.
And here’s a bit of good news for that receding hairline. While
Propecia has been widely believed to work the crown and vertex
exclusively, studies out of the University of Pennsylvania are now
confirming that the drug will also stimulate frontal hair growth.
While re-growth along the temples has yet to be proven, steady
growth in the middle of the front has been proven through extensive
experimenting.
Most hair doctors will tell you that Propecia takes a good three
to four months before kicking in, so if you’re waiting for immediate
results, you may as well grab a Snickers Bar. But if you don’t see
any positive results after a year of taking Propecia, chances are
that you’re not only wasting you time, you’re wasting your money as
well.
Now comes the bad news.
For you ladies who are seeing dread atop the head, Propecia is
not for you. It is a drug designed exclusively for men.
Also, Propecia, like many other prescription medications, is not
free of unfortunate side effects. Under extensive experimenting, a
small number of subjects (2 percent, to be exact) were effected with
such conditions as diminished sex drive, inadequate erections, and a
decrease in semen.
