How do I go about getting propecia? Do I just go to a regular doctor and ask for a prescription? Or get a referral to a dermatologist?

Thanks. Rogaine isn't doing the trick, my hair is falling out at an alarming rate, so i think it is time to go to the next step and use propecia.

I recommend having a consultation with a hair restoration physician. They will be able to give you more detailed information regarding the diagnosis of hair loss, including the surgical and non surgical treatment options. If this is not possible due to your location you can see a general practitioneer or dermatologist who both could prescribe propecia. Some doctors including myself will do an on line evaluation if good photos and medical history are provided. Propecia can also be prescribed in this manner.
