      Spironolactone can remain effective for a long time in treating androgenetic alopecia, but it may not completely stop hair loss. Hair loss treatments like spironolactone, finasteride, and dutasteride slow down hair loss rather than cure it, and their effectiveness can vary based on individual response and the aggressiveness of the condition.
