Propecia Results

The following results are from a 2 year VERTEX study of patients taking PROPECIA conducted by Merck. The study results were categorized as greatly into 4 groups: 1) Great Improvement 2) Moderate Improvement 3) Slight Improvement 4) No improvement.

          
5% of the study patients received great improvement like the results below:

     .

          
31% of the study patients received moderate improvement like the results below:

     .

          
30% of the study patients received slight improvement like the results below:

     .

34% of the study patients had no improvement.

As you can see, a majority of the patients in the 2 year Vertex study not only did not have any further hair loss, but had significant hair "regrowth" in balding area. In my personal experience there is not another medical treatment that compares to these results. Also 83% percent of the patients in this study had no further hair loss at 2 years.
