Who qualifies for Finasteride

Finasteride is a prescription medication primarily used to treat male pattern baldness (androgenetic alopecia). When you consult with one of our EU-licensed doctors, they look for specific criteria to ensure Finasteride is safe and effective for you. This includes reviewing your medical history, current medications, and the pattern of your hair loss. Finasteride is generally prescribed for men, as it is not indicated for women and can cause birth defects if taken during pregnancy. Contraindications include hypersensitivity to Finasteride or any of its components, and it is not recommended for men with certain liver conditions or prostate cancer. Our doctors assess every case individually to determine if Finasteride is the appropriate treatment for your specific situation.

What Finasteride actually does (and doesn't do)

Finasteride works by inhibiting the enzyme 5-alpha reductase, which is responsible for converting testosterone into dihydrotestosterone (DHT). DHT is a hormone that causes hair follicles to shrink, leading to male pattern baldness. By reducing DHT levels, Finasteride helps to slow down hair loss and, in some cases, can promote new hair growth. Patients typically start to see results within 3-6 months, with full effects often visible after 12 months of consistent use. It's important to understand that Finasteride addresses the hormonal cause of hair loss; it does not cure baldness, and treatment must be ongoing to maintain results. It also does not directly impact the structural health of your hair in the way biotin might.

Side effects and when to stop

Like all medications, Finasteride can have side effects. Common side effects are usually mild and temporary, including decreased libido, erectile dysfunction, and ejaculatory disorders. Less common but more serious side effects can include allergic reactions, breast tenderness or enlargement, and, in rare cases, depression. It's crucial to discuss any concerns with your doctor. If you experience persistent or severe side effects, or any signs of an allergic reaction, you should stop taking Finasteride and seek immediate medical attention. Our doctors provide clear guidance on what to expect and when to discontinue treatment.
