What Is Fincar 5 mg?
Fincar 5 mg contains Finasteride, a medicine that lowers DHT (dihydrotestosterone), the hormone responsible for prostate enlargement and male pattern hair loss. By reducing DHT, it helps shrink the prostate and may also slow hair loss when prescribed.Results are gradual, and noticeable improvement usually appears after several months of regular use.
How Fincar 5 mg Works
Fincar 5 mg reduces DHT levels, allowing the enlarged prostate to shrink over time. This helps improve urine flow and relieves symptoms of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH).
For hair loss, lowering DHT helps protect hair follicles, slowing hair thinning and supporting hair regrowth in suitable patients.
Uses of Fincar 5 mg
- Treats benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH)
- Improves urine flow and reduces frequent urination
- Lowers the risk of urinary retention
- May reduce the need for prostate surgery
- Helps manage male pattern hair loss when prescribed
