Ukmedix knows alot about hair loss and the effectiveness of the drugs that are sold for its cure. We also know alot about the effect that hair loss has on the self esteem and confidence of men. Ukmedix does not promise to be able to sort out all types of hair loss and provide instant cures but what we can do is give good advice and give you access to experienced medical doctors who know all about hair loss.

One of the things that we tell all men who come to get help is that prevention is better than cure. It is much much easier to keep hair from falling out that it is to regrow hair and in testing with the Propecia hair loss drug it was seen that 83% stopped their hair loss. The number of men who actually found that their hair was regrowing was much less and in fact the men that experienced the best regrowing were those who had a decent amount of hair when they started the treatment.

Finasteride which is marketed as Propecia is an inhibitor of the type 2, 5a-reductase which is directly linked to the conversion of the hormone testosterone to dihydrotestosterone or DHT. DHT is directly responsible for the loss of hair as it damages hair follicles and eventually kills them. The Propecia drug reduces the amount of DHT found in the scalp and thus hair follicles are able to grow normally.

The testing done one the Propecia drug was extensive and involved thousands of men and it is probably the most effective hair loss treatment on the market today. It has the approval of both the European Union's EMEA and the FDA in the United States and has been a big money earner for its manufacturer Merck. The drug is also popular because it is so easy to administer and does not require the massaging of liquids or ointments into the scalp. Propecia is simply taken in the form of a tiny tablet daily and most men start to see positive effects after a few months.
