Question
Hi Spencer,
I've heard a lot about propecia and how well it works. So I visited their website. They claim that
Propecia works for the vertex and anterior (?) areas of the scalp--not the temples.
Unfortunately, I'm noticing (at age 20) that my hair is
starting to thin at the temples.
My dermatologist said that propeica WOULD work for the temple area. I'm confused by
a few things. First off, what exactly is the anterior area of the scalp and
secondly, of course, will Propecia work for hair thining from the temples?
Thanks,
James Brannock
Answer
Propecia should stop the progression of your hair
loss even though it is in the temple region. The anterior scalp is basically the top
of your head between the hairline zone and the vertex.
Good luck to you,
