Who qualifies for hair loss medication

Our EU-licensed doctors look for specific criteria to ensure hair loss medication is safe and effective for you. Primarily, they assess for androgenetic alopecia (male or female pattern baldness). They consider your medical history, any existing conditions, and current medications to identify potential contraindications. For men, this often includes evaluating the pattern of hair thinning or receding hairline. For women, it's typically more diffuse thinning across the scalp. The doctor ensures there are no underlying health issues that might be causing your hair loss or that would make treatment inappropriate.

What hair loss medication actually does (and doesn't do)

Commonly prescribed medications like minoxidil and finasteride work to either stimulate hair growth or halt hair loss. Minoxidil, a topical solution, improves blood flow to hair follicles, encouraging them to enter the growth phase. Finasteride, an oral medication (primarily for men), inhibits the production of dihydrotestosterone (DHT), a hormone that shrinks hair follicles leading to hair loss. These medications aim to slow down or even reverse the thinning process, but they do not create new hair follicles where none existed. Consistent use is crucial, and visible results typically appear within 3-6 months. Stopping treatment usually leads to a return of hair loss.

Side effects and when to stop

Like all medications, hair loss treatments can have side effects. Minoxidil may cause scalp irritation, dryness, or unwanted facial hair growth. Finasteride can, in a small percentage of men, lead to sexual side effects like decreased libido or erectile dysfunction, which are usually reversible upon discontinuation. It's important to be aware of these potential effects. If you experience persistent or severe side effects, or notice any unexpected changes in your health, you should stop the medication and consult with a doctor immediately. Our doctors provide full guidance on managing side effects.
