Who qualifies for Finasteride

Our EU-licensed doctors assess each patient individually to determine if Finasteride is the right treatment. They look for specific criteria, primarily male pattern baldness (androgenetic alopecia). Factors considered include your medical history, current health status, and any potential contraindications. The doctor ensures Finasteride is safe and effective for your specific situation. You provide all necessary information through our secure online questionnaire, reviewed by medical professionals.

What Finasteride actually does (and doesn't do)

Finasteride treats male pattern baldness by blocking the conversion of testosterone into dihydrotestosterone (DHT) – the hormone responsible for shrinking hair follicles. By lowering DHT levels, Finasteride slows down hair loss and can promote regrowth of thicker, healthier hair. It doesn't instantly grow a full head of hair overnight, nor does it work for all types of hair loss. Expect to see initial results in 3-6 months, with full effects potentially taking 12 months or more. Consistency is key.

Noticing changes in your hair?

An EU-licensed doctor can privately review your case and decide whether a hair-growth treatment is appropriate for you. Online consultation for 45 € every 90 days or 35 € one-off, reply within 24 h.

Side effects and when to stop

As with any medication, Finasteride can have side effects. Most commonly, these are mild and include decreased libido, erectile dysfunction, or reduced ejaculate volume. These are usually reversible if treatment is stopped. If you experience any concerning or persistent side effects, such as breast tenderness or enlargement, mood changes, or severe allergic reactions, you must stop the medication immediately and consult a doctor. Our Hi Doctor platform provides a private, RGPD-compliant chat for you to discuss any concerns with your reviewing doctor.
