Proscar – For Hair Loss Treatment
Proscar/finasteride dht is a double action breakthrough drug for the treatment of male pattern baldness and prostate cancer treatment. The success of Proscar/Finasteride dht lies in its power to reduce dht which is known as di-hydro-testosterone through its action as a 5 alpha reductase inhibitor.
As we age reducing dht is important. Why? 5 alpha reductase is a vital enzyme that responds with testosterone (an important sex hormone) changing it back into DHT. During a chain reaction high amounts of DHT can increase the prostate gland which can then lead to the need for prostate cancer treatment. Finasteride is an effective 5 alpha reductase inhibitor that can also aid male pattern baldness treatment as it also has connections with high amounts of DHT.
In brief finasteride is able to prevent DHT which is the main cause of age-related prostate problems. Using Finasteride has revealed its ability to lower the size of the male prostate by successfully upsetting the development of dht.
Proclaimed as a breakthrough, Finasteride is thought to be 70% successful in blocking type 11 (the most common kind of 5 alpha reductase. This eventually controls the development of DHT the all important prostate enlargement hormone. Prostate enlargement has been linked with cancer.
