5 / 1000+ resultscommunity ‘Matter of survival’: South Korean president urges public health cover for hair loss
Hair loss impacts mental health and should be covered by healthcare, with treatments like finasteride, dutasteride, and minoxidil being affordable and effective. Some argue hair loss is cosmetic and shouldn't be funded, while others highlight its broader health implications.
community Popular hair loss drug linked to higher suicide risk: compared to non-users, finasteride (Proscar/ Propecia) users have a markedly increased risk of depression, anxiety, and suicidal thoughts. Over 30 years of observation, 19,320 suicides were expected.
Finasteride users may have an increased risk of depression, anxiety, and suicidal thoughts, though some attribute these issues to hair loss itself. The link between finasteride and mental health effects is debated, with varying user experiences.
community Common hair-loss drug consistently associated with higher rates of psychiatric harm

While some users experience positive hair growth results, others face severe psychological effects, raising concerns about their safety and the need for careful monitoring.
community It's not just about your hair, it's also about YOU!
