Male pattern hair loss is a common condition in which men experience thinning of the hair on the scalp. Often, this results in a receding hairline and/or balding on the top of the head. These changes typically
begin gradually in men in their 20s. Doctors believe male pattern hair loss is due to heredity and is dependent on hormonal effects. Doctors refer to this type of hair loss as androgenetic alopecia. Results of clinical studies:
For 12 months, doctors studied over 1800 men aged 18 to 41 with mild to moderate amounts of ongoing hair loss. Of these men, approximately 1200 with hair loss at the top of the head participated in additional extension studies, resulting in a total study time of up to five years. In general, men who took Splitting Propecia
maintained or increased the number of visible scalp hairs and noticed improvement in their hair in the first
year. Improvement, compared to the start of the study, was maintained through the remaining years of treatment. Hair counts in men who did not take Splitting Propecia
continued to decrease. In one study, patients were questioned on the growth of body hair. Splitting Propecia
did not appear to affect hair in places other than the scalp.
