Donald Trump’s iconic blonde hairstyle has had a little assistance from a well-known medication over the years.
However, this hair-loss prevention drug is no longer listed in the former President’s medical records.
During Trump’s first term, medical examinations revealed he was taking Finasteride, commonly known as Propecia, to combat baldness, according to the Washington Post.
Interestingly, this medication has not been mentioned in any of his medical records during his second term.
The White House issued a statement saying, “The current report includes all medications considered clinically relevant to disclose at this time. No additional undisclosed conditions or procedures materially affecting his health status were omitted from this report.”
At 79, the President is famously meticulous about maintaining his distinctive hairstyle.
Last year, he slammed Time for publishing a picture in which his hair looks ‘weird.’
‘Time Magazine wrote a relatively good story about me, but the picture may be the Worst of All Time,’ Trump wrote on social media in October. ‘They “disappeared” my hair, and then had something floating on top of my head that looked like a floating crown, but an extremely small one. Really weird!’

While campaigning in 2024, the President was prone to checking the giant monitors showing his speeches to see how his hair looked.
‘I’m looking at my hair up there. Let’s see,’ Trump said at a July 2024 rally in Michigan to laughter from the crowd. ‘I don’t like it. I don’t like it. Excuse me, I’m going to re-comb my hair. Do you mind?’
The health report released Friday declared Trump ‘remains in excellent health,’ according to a summary of his most recent physical at Walter Reed Medical Center.
Captain Sean P Barbabella, the President’s doctor, wrote in his report: ‘President Trump remains in excellent health, demonstrating strong cardiac, pulmonary, neurological, and overall physical function.’
‘His demanding daily schedule, including multiple high-level meetings, public engagements, and regular physical activity, continues to support his overall well-being. Cognitive and physical performance are excellent.
‘He is fully fit to carry out all duties of the Commander-in-Chief and Head of State,’ he added.
Trump visited Walter Reed National Military Medical Center on Tuesday morning. The delayed results prompted questions about whether the White House was sitting on bad news.
But that afternoon, as he returned to the White House, Trump boasted that he was in perfect health.

‘Just finished my 6 month physical at Walter Reed Military Medical Center. Everything checked out PERFECTLY,’ the President posted to Truth Social from the motorcade. ‘Thank you to the great Doctors and Staff! Heading back to the White House.’
However, Friday’s report did disclose that the president had gained 17lb weight since his last physical in April 2025.
‘Preventive counseling was provided, including guidance on diet, recommendation to take a low-dose aspirin, increased physical activity, and continued weight loss,’ the report reads.
The checkup came just weeks before Trump turned 80, and as mysterious bruises continued to raise health concerns about the man who will set the record for the country’s oldest President before he finishes out his second term.
It also came as former President Joe Biden’s fitness for office was back in the news.
Former First Lady Jill Biden told CBS Sunday Morning that she feared her husband was having a ‘stroke’ during his disastrous June 2024 debate against Trump.
She pushed that she had ‘never ever seen Joe like that before or since.’
Biden’s inner circle has been under fire since he dropped out of the 2024 race, with Democrats losing the presidential election, for hiding what many allege was a deteriorating health condition.
His poor debate performance was a turning point, leading him to drop out three weeks later.
Biden was diagnosed with Stage 4 testicular cancer four months after leaving the White House, with Trump pushing that the Democrat kept a manor health issue under wraps while in office, an assertion that his medical team and former aides deny.
Now similar questions are swirling around about Trump.
