Who qualifies for Finasteride

Our EU-licensed doctors carefully assess each patient to determine if Finasteride is appropriate. They look for specific criteria, ensuring your safety and the effectiveness of the treatment. Generally, Finasteride is considered for women experiencing pattern hair loss after menopause. It's crucial to disclose your full medical history, including any existing conditions or medications you are taking. Finasteride is not prescribed if you are pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or breastfeeding, due to potential risks. The doctor evaluates your individual case to ensure no contraindications exist.

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 primary cause of hair follicle miniaturisation in androgenetic alopecia. By reducing DHT levels, Finasteride helps to slow down hair loss and, in some cases, can stimulate new hair growth. You should expect to see initial results within 3-6 months of consistent use, with full effects potentially taking up to 12 months. It's important to understand that Finasteride helps manage hair loss; it does not cure it, and continued use is necessary to maintain results. It primarily targets pattern hair loss and may not be effective for other causes of hair thinning.

Side effects and when to stop

Like all medications, Finasteride can have side effects. While generally well-tolerated, some women may experience reduced libido, breast tenderness, or mood changes. These side effects are usually mild and may resolve with continued use. However, if you experience any severe or persistent side effects, such as allergic reactions (rash, itching, swelling) or significant mood disturbances, you should stop taking Finasteride immediately and seek medical attention. Always discuss any concerns with your doctor, who can advise on the best course of action.
