What Are Alternative Medical Treatments to Propecia?
December 29th, 2016Q: Dr. Bernstein, I am experiencing side effects on Propecia, are there alternative treatments? — J.D. ~ Roslyn, N.Y.
A: Yes, minoxidil (Rogaine), low level laser therapy (LLLT), and Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP). Unfortunately, none of these will be as effective as finasteride.
- What are your thoughts on topical finasteride?
- How do you best manage the irritation that comes with minoxidil?
- What is your Opinion of the Companies that Advertise Hair Loss Solutions like Hims and Keeps?
- Can Rogaine Cause Miniaturization?
- Are Topical DHT Blockers as Effective as Oral Finasteride?
