So let's examine the pros and cons of using the hair loss drug Propecia. Most of the men who use it at Ukmedix say that they love the fact that it can be administered so easily and discreetly. The pills are tiny and can easily be hidden in a wash bag and so no one is the wiser that you are using it. Other hair loss medications usually involve you applying something directly to your scalp. This is time consuming requires dedication and patience and can sometimes leave your hair looking wet.

Some hair loss lotions that are applied to the scalp can be an irritant and may cause you to scratch your hair at night. This is very bad for your scalp and you will pull out more hair when you do this. Men are notoriously impatient when it comes to applying medication and so the Propecia pill really is a bonus for men. Propecia is also statistically far more effective than any lotion or liquid applied to the scalp that has been invented to date. If it is medication that you require for Male Pattern Balding you have a greater chance of stopping the hair loss and re growing your hair by using Propecia than you have with any other medication the market.
So we have seen the advantages of Propecia and now what are the disadvantages of using this hair loss drug? Well the first and most obvious one is that it can lower a man’s desire to have sex and in a very small number of men (less than 1%) there were reports of erectile dysfunction.
Before you panic and swear that you’ll never use Propecia remember that in each and every one of the millions of cases of Propecia users no man has ever claimed that Propecia caused anything but temporary sexual function problems and they all said that the moment they stopped using the drug the problem disappeared. It is likely that the less than 1% of men who suffered from ED as a result of Propecia use were those who had very weak sexual function anyway.
All in all we sincerely believe at Ukmedix News from the hundreds of Propecia reports that we have seen and from the fact that Propecia is the most tested and used hair loss medication in the world that it is the best place to start if you are a man with male pattern balding.
