This is a chart showing the effect of finasteride, 1 mg compared to placebo, on the number of hairs in a 1-inch diameter circle on the vertex of the scalp over a 6-month period. The chart shows the mean change in hairs from baseline and the number of hairs at each visit for both groups. The pooled data from vertex hair loss studies shows that finasteride had a significant effect on hair count compared to placebo.*
