Who qualifies for Finasteride

Finasteride is a common and effective treatment for male pattern baldness (androgenetic alopecia). Doctors look for specific criteria to determine if Finasteride is appropriate for you. Generally, it's prescribed for adult men experiencing hair thinning or loss at the crown and hairline. Contraindications include women (especially those who are pregnant or may become pregnant due to risk of birth defects), children, and individuals with certain liver conditions or known hypersensitivity to Finasteride. Your doctor will assess your medical history and current health status through the online questionnaire to ensure Finasteride is safe and suitable for your specific situation.

What Finasteride actually does (and doesn't do)

Finasteride works by inhibiting 5-alpha-reductase, an enzyme that converts testosterone into dihydrotestosterone (DHT). DHT is the primary hormone responsible for shrinking hair follicles in male pattern baldness. By lowering DHT levels in the scalp, Finasteride helps to stop hair loss and, in many cases, promotes new hair growth. It's important to understand that Finasteride primarily targets scalp hair and has a limited, if any, direct impact on body hair growth. Results are not immediate; you can expect to see noticeable improvements in 3–6 months, with full effects often taking 12 months or more. Consistency is key, and Finasteride does not cure baldness; it manages the condition as long as you continue treatment.

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

Like all medications, Finasteride can have side effects, though most users tolerate it well. Common, usually mild, side effects can include decreased libido, erectile dysfunction, and ejaculatory disorders. Less common but more serious side effects can include allergic reactions, breast tenderness or enlargement, and, rarely, depression. If you experience persistent or concerning side effects, especially severe mood changes or allergic reactions, you should stop taking Finasteride and consult a doctor immediately. Your Hi Doctor physician will discuss potential side effects and monitor your treatment.
