Female hair loss differs by age


 

EXPERT ANALYSIS FROM THE PDA ANNUAL MEETING

"I use very little spironolactone for androgenetic alopecia," Dr. Price said. "It will not grow hair. I think it’s used a lot because people aren’t familiar with minoxidil or don’t know about using finasteride if there’s no possibility of pregnancy."

Dr. Price reported having financial associations with Allergan and Follica, neither of which was pertinent to this topic.
