Choosing Between Propecia and Rogaine for Hair Loss

Propecia (finasteride)  and Rogaine (minoxidil) have both been FDA approved to treat hair loss. But is one more effective than the other?

Though many hair loss sufferers would love to find a single treatment that would solve their problem with balding, usually a multifaceted approach is more effective. Propecia (finasteride)  and Rogaine (minoxidil  treat baldness effectively in many  men, but they do so in different ways.

Forum member “Ikki” was recently told by his doctor to get on Rogaine for his hair loss but not Propecia. Click here to see why his doctor may have recommended he stay away from Propecia and when it’s appropriate to use one or both treatments to treat baldness.

  • I completely agree with the multifaceted approach. I use finasteride, minoxidil, and (new one I'm trying) bimatoprost. Each one has its benefits and it seems to work in combination quite well.

    I find it fascinating to see if others agree or disagree.
