Minoxidil Propecia (finasteride): Two medications that can prevent hair loss are Minoxidil and propecia (finasteride). While they may help your situation, you must be aware that they have side effects. Most concerning is the possibility of long term erectile dysfunction with propecia (finasteride). Alternatively hair transplantation is a safe and permanent solution to hair loss. The only down side to that is the cost.

Hair loss: As hair loss begins, you will notice increased shedding of hair. You will also see that some hairs have become very fine and short. At this point you should see a hair loss specialist. There are medical treatments available to stop the hair loss.
