Is propecia effective in treating hairloss when caught early?

[zomboy93]

Hey guys, i'm 21 years old and I been on Propecia for a year a 4 months now. I'm pretty sure I started Propecia in the very first stages of balding with only a few miniaturising hairs on the hairline or it may have been a mature hairline developing, I would say I'm a strong norwood 1.5.
As I started early does that mean I have a chance in keeping my hair longer? since being on propecia my hair has stabilised and my hairline seems thicker where a few of those hairs looked thinner.

Thanks for your speedy response! Does starting Propecia early have any advantages?

Yes, it maintains hair. If your hair was very miniaturized, Propecia might not have been able to save it.
