Propecia (PEP) is a widely used prescription medication that is indicated for the treatment of male pattern baldness in menopausal women. It was approved by the FDA in 1997 and is a well-tolerated drug in the United States, with an incidence of 1.6% of the United States population. However, the availability of the drug has been limited by the fact that the clinical data on PEP use in menopausal women has not been adequately evaluated. In this study, we aimed to evaluate the effect of PEP on the serum concentrations of PEND (propecia and finasteride) in a population of menopausal women. The study was conducted among menopausal women (N = 10) who had undergone the initiation of PEND (Finasteride) therapy at the National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCEB) Medtronic Research and Development Center (MRC) of the University of Wisconsin-Madison. We studied serum concentrations of PEND in a sample of 10 menopausal women (N = 10) who had been prescribed PEND for at least one year and had been enrolled in the clinical trial. We then evaluated the effect of PEND on serum levels of PEND. The mean serum levels of PEND in menopausal women were significantly lower than those in the other groups (P < 0.05). The mean serum levels of PEND in menopausal women were also significantly lower than those in the other groups (P > 0.05). We conclude that menopausal women who were prescribed PEND therapy should be evaluated for a lower serum PEND concentration than those who have not been prescribed PEND therapy.
Male pattern baldness is an increasing public health problem worldwide. PEND, a medication used in the treatment of male pattern baldness, has become the gold standard in the management of this condition.
Male pattern baldness is a prevalent form of hair loss in menopausal women. PEND, which is marketed under the brand name Propecia, has shown positive results in clinical studies. However, the long-term use of PEND in menopausal women has not been adequately evaluated. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of PEND therapy on serum concentrations of PEND in a population of menopausal women.
The sample size calculation was performed for this study. The study population consisted of 10 menopausal women (N = 10) who had been prescribed PEND therapy for at least one year. We assessed the effect of PEND on the serum concentrations of PEND in menopausal women. We also evaluated the effect of PEND on serum levels of PEND in menopausal women. We used the Clinical Researchupuncture (Cranberry, Aurobindo, and Tofana) technique, as it has been developed for the use of menopausal patients. The aim of the research was to determine the effect of PEND on serum concentrations of PEND in menopausal women.
The mean serum levels of PEND in menopausal women were significantly lower than those in the other groups (P > 0.05). The mean serum concentrations of PEND in menopausal women were significantly lower than those in the other groups (P < 0.05). The mean serum concentrations of PEND in menopausal women were significantly lower than those in the other groups (P > 0.05).

Propecia contains a medicine called finasteride. This belongs to a group of medicinescalled Type II ‘5-alpha reductase inhibitors’.

How does the hair on your head grow?On average your hair grows about 1 centimetre (half an inch) each month. Hair growsfrom hair follicles, which are located under your skin.
A single scalp hair grows continuously for 2-4 years (growth phase) and then stopsgrowing for 2-4 months (rest phase). After this the hair falls out. In its place a newhealthy hair begins to grow, and the cycle is repeated. The hairs on your scalp arealways in different stages of this cycle so it is normal to lose scalp hair every day.
What is male pattern hair loss?
Male pattern hair loss is a common condition in which men experience thinning of thehair on the scalp, often resulting in a receding hairline and/or balding on the top of thehead. This condition is thought to be caused by a combination of genetic factors and aparticular hormone, DHT (dihydrotestosterone).
DHT causes a decrease in the growth phase and thinning of the hair (see picture). Thisleads to male pattern hair loss. These changes can start to occur in some men in their20s and become more common with age. Once hair loss has occurred over a longperiod of time, the hair may be permanently lost.
