Who qualifies for Finasteride

Our EU-licensed doctors assess several factors to determine if Finasteride is appropriate for you. They look for signs of androgenetic alopecia (male pattern baldness) and consider your overall health. Generally, Finasteride is prescribed for adult men. Contraindications include women (especially those who are pregnant or may become pregnant) and individuals with certain liver conditions or known hypersensitivity to the drug. The doctor will review your medical history thoroughly via the questionnaire to ensure your safety and the medication's efficacy.

What Finasteride actually does (and doesn't do)

Finasteride is an oral medication that works by blocking the conversion of testosterone to dihydrotestosterone (DHT). DHT is a hormone that shrinks hair follicles and contributes to hair loss in men with androgenetic alopecia. By reducing DHT levels, Finasteride can slow down hair loss and promote hair regrowth. It is most effective in preventing further hair loss and can lead to thicker hair over time. Realistic timelines show noticeable improvements typically within 3–6 months of consistent use, with full effects often seen after 12 months. It doesn't guarantee a full head of hair, but it significantly helps in retaining existing hair and encouraging new growth.

Side effects and when to stop

Like all medications, Finasteride can have side effects. The most common, though rare, include sexual side effects such as decreased libido, erectile dysfunction, and ejaculation disorders. These are usually reversible upon stopping the medication. Other less common side effects can include breast tenderness or enlargement, rash, and depression. It's crucial to report any concerning side effects to your doctor. If you experience severe allergic reactions (e.g., swelling of the face or throat, difficulty breathing), stop Finasteride immediately and seek urgent medical attention. Your Hi-Doctor physician will discuss potential risks and benefits with you during the consultation.
