Finasteride 1 mg – Hair Loss Treatment for Men
Finasteride 1 mg is an oral DHT blocker used to treat male pattern baldness (androgenetic alopecia). It works by reducing levels of dihydrotestosterone (DHT), a hormone that causes hair follicles to shrink. This helps slow hair loss and promotes hair regrowth on the scalp in men.
