What Is Proscar?

Proscar (finasteride) is a prescription medication used to manage benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). It works by inhibiting 5-alpha-reductase, the enzyme that converts testosterone to dihydrotestosterone (DHT), thereby reducing prostate volume over time. With the right dose and ongoing monitoring, most men experience meaningful improvement in urinary flow and symptom burden within three to six months.

Is Online Proscar Treatment Right for You?

Proscar is prescribed for adult men diagnosed with benign prostatic hyperplasia who are experiencing lower urinary tract symptoms such as weak urine stream, frequent urination, or incomplete bladder emptying. It is not appropriate for use in women or children, and it requires a confirmed or clinically suspected BPH diagnosis before prescribing.

Because finasteride affects androgen levels, a brief review of your prostate health history and any current medications is necessary. Men with liver impairment or a history of prostate cancer require additional evaluation before starting treatment.
