Who qualifies for Finasteride
Our EU-licensed doctors review each case to ensure Finasteride is the right treatment for you. They look for specific criteria:
- You are an adult male experiencing male pattern baldness (androgenetic alopecia).
- You do not have a history of allergic reactions to Finasteride or similar medications.
- You do not have significant liver disease or other contraindications.
- You understand the potential benefits and risks of Finasteride.
The doctor's assessment is crucial. They ensure your safety and that the treatment is appropriate for your specific health profile.
What Finasteride actually does (and doesn't do)
Finasteride works by blocking the enzyme 5-alpha-reductase, which converts testosterone into dihydrotestosterone (DHT). DHT is a primary cause of male pattern baldness, as it shrinks hair follicles. By reducing DHT levels, Finasteride helps to:
- Slow down hair loss.
- Promote new hair growth.
- Increase hair density.
It's important to understand that Finasteride is not a miracle cure. You will not see immediate results. Most patients notice a reduction in hair shedding within 3-6 months, with visible improvements in hair density typically appearing after 6-12 months. Maximum results are usually seen after 1-2 years of consistent use. Finasteride does not cure baldness; its benefits continue only as long as you take the medication.
Side effects and when to stop
Like all medications, Finasteride can cause side effects, though most men tolerate it well. Common side effects can include:
- Decreased libido (sex drive).
- Erectile dysfunction.
- Ejaculation disorders.
- Depression or anxiety.
These side effects are generally reversible if you stop taking the medication. If you experience any severe or persistent side effects, or if you notice any changes in breast tissue (e.g., lumps, pain, nipple discharge), you should stop Finasteride and consult a doctor immediately. Our doctors provide private, RGPD-compliant chat support inside your account for any concerns you may have during treatment.
