\"Preventing<\/p>\n

Hair loss is a sight commonly associated with older men. Most hair loss treatments, such as a hair transplant, can easily cost a fortune, which leaves many with very few options affordable enough to keep from going completely bald. Propecia is an inexpensive alternative for those who do not have the money for an expensive and painful operation.
\nBelow are some facts where hair loss originates and what using Propecia can do for you.<\/p>\n

Do genetics play a role in male baldness?<\/b>
\nMost definitely, as the likelihood that you will become bald is higher if either side of your family has a history of male baldness.<\/p>\n

When does male pattern baldness start to occur?<\/b>
\nIt can occur in men ages 20-30 years<\/a> old, but can start showing patterns as early as puberty.<\/p>\n

How long does it take for results to be seen if I take Propecia?<\/b>
\nThis medication is best taken daily, and the soonest you can expect to see results is in 3-6 months. Although, you have to continually take Propecia for the effects to last, because once you stop taking it the male pattern baldness that you experienced will slowly begin to return. The makers of Propecia recommend 12 months of therapy before you decide if it’s right for you.
\nCan Propecia be taken with an empty stomach?<\/b>
\nYes, Propecia can be taken with or without food.>
\nWhat is the recommended dosage of Propecia?<\/b>
\nThe recommended dosage is a 1 mg dosage, once per day.
\nDoes Propecia have a risk of drug interactions?<\/b><\/p>\n

Studies have shown that Propecia does not interact with other medications.
\nHow does Propecia work?<\/b><\/p>\n

Propecia solely targets DHT, the primary hormone that is responsible for shrinking the hair follicles in the scalp, and does not cause undesirable changes in other male hormones.<\/p>\n

What should be watched for while taking Propecia?<\/b>
\nLess than 2% experienced sexual side effects, such as less desire for sex, difficulty in achieving an erection, or a decrease in the amount of semen. Women should not take this drug when pregnant for risk of damage to the fetus.<\/p>\n

If you experience difficulty breathing, your throat closing up, swelling of your lips, tongue, face or hives, or any other type of allergic reaction, stop using Propecia immediately. Contact your physician and seek medical help right away.<\/p>\n

What is the best way to store Propecia?<\/b><\/p>\n

This medication should be stored at room temperature, and away from heat and moisture.<\/p>\n

Where can I get Propecia?<\/b>
\nOnce you have determined Propecia is right for you, you can buy Propecia online<\/a> at eDrugstore.com. Fill out the entire medical questionnaire online. If you are approved for the medication, your Propecia will be shipped directly to you by a U.S. licensed pharmacy.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
