Propecia is the branded version of finasteride 1mg, licensed in the UK for the treatment of male pattern hair loss (androgenetic alopecia) in adult men.
Male pattern baldness is the most common cause of hair thinning in men and is largely driven by genetic sensitivity to hormones. Propecia works by targeting the hormonal mechanism responsible for progressive follicle miniaturisation.
When taken consistently, Propecia can help reduce further hair loss and support the maintenance of existing hair.
