Propecia is an option. There are also other options you could use: I have great success in my practice using injectable progesterone and prp to the scalp. A transplant is another option. I suggest you see a cosmetic dermatologist who specializes in hair loss for a formal consultation. Best, Dr. Emer

Once hair goes grey it typically doesn't redarken, however, I have seen hair repigmentation in some instances with PRP and latisse.  The best treatment is hair coloring.  Best, Dr. Emer.

If you are worried about side effects of a medication, speak to your doctor.  Propecia is an elective medication.   It is your decision to take it.

There are many products that claim to treat hair loss but it does not mean it really works.  You may want to take a "buyer beware" approach.
