Propecia prostate treatment targets the male hormone Testosterone. Specifically developed for men, Propecia has been very useful in preventing hair-loss and treating male baldness.
Propecia or Finasteride?
Propecia is the trade name of a synthetic anti-androgen by the name of Finasteride. It works by converting the male hormone Testosterone to DiHydroTestosterone (DHT). Clinical tests showed that it’s very effective in the treatment of Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia. It also helps patients suffering from other prostate abnormalities like prostate cancer.
High success rate with Propecia prostate treatment
Treating prostate abnormalities with Propecia has a high success rate. The prostate looks like a small donut, that hides under the urinary bladder. Just like a donut, it has a hole in the middle. This is where the seminal duct and urinary tract (the urethra) pass through. When a man is over the age of 45, he may start to develop abnormalities of this prostate gland. Usually this means the prostate gets bigger and the hole in the middle gets tighter. This may cause symptoms like pain and discomfort while urinating. You may also notice blood in your urine or semen, or even have difficulty in getting an erection or ejaculating. Propecia effectively reduces the size of the gland, relieving most of the pain and discomfort.
This medicine is strictly for men only. Therefore, it’s absolutely important to follow the instructions on the label or as told by the prescribing doctor. Otherwise, you might experience some side effects that could have been prevented. To take the medicine, you should swallow it with some water. Also make sure that you take it on time, so that it’s working properly.
Pay attention to dosage
If you don’t stick to the dosage pattern, Propecia won’t work properly. If you take to much, it could even be dangerous. It’s important to follow the dosage instructions carefully. If you happen to miss a tablet, don’t try to make up for it by taking extra the next time. Are you using Propecia for other issues like hair loss or prostate disease? Then be sure to talk to your doctor or medical professional about the proper dosage before starting the treatment.
