Is Transplanted Hair Dependent on Hair Loss Treatment Propecia?

I would like a [tag]hair transplant[/tag] but don’t want to be condemned to taking [tag]Propecia[/tag] after.   Would taking Propecia lead to transplanted hair becoming in some way dependent on it?   What about natural hair not affected by [tag]DHT[/tag]?

Neither [tag]transplanted hair[/tag]  nor natural hair not susceptible to [tag]dihydrotestosterone[/tag] (DHT) is or will become dependent upon Propecia  ([tag]finasteride[/tag]).    Most [tag]hair transplant patients[/tag] use Propecia to attempt to slow down, stop, or reverse the [tag]hair loss[/tag] process.   Because [tag]male pattern baldness[/tag] is progressive, Propecia can help you keep hair that may have fallen out naturally over time.   Stopping Propecia however, will stop any hair regrowth and discontinue any benefits you may have been receiving from it.

In stopping Propecia you risk the probability that hair loss  will continue, especially if Propecia has worked to slow down or stop the [tag]balding[/tag] pattern to date.   You will have to decide whether or not you want to take that risk.
