Abstract in brief

  • This study examined the long-term (5-year) effectiveness of finasteride 1 mg in treating male androgenetic alopecia (AGA) in Korean men, analyzing how hair growth improvements varied across different types of hair loss based on the BASIC and Specific (BASP) classification system.
  • Results showed that most patients experienced improvements, especially in the vertex (V) and frontal (F) areas, with the vertex type showing the quickest and most consistent progress. However, some degree of alopecia progression was observed after initial improvement, particularly in V and F types.
  • Overall, finasteride 1 mg demonstrated sustainable benefits for at least 5 years, but the timing of when improvements and signs of stabilization appeared differed depending on the specific pattern of hair loss.]

薄毛部位別でフィナの効果検証した論文だとやはりこれ。 フィナが1-2年で効果あった後、脱毛進行する割合はVertex型とFrontal型でそれぞれ10%または16%。 前頭部型は内服薬の効果がぼちぼちあるけど、その後緩やかに進行しやすい 前頭部型は厳しいね。 https://t.co/DfpxWO2ezK
