Who qualifies for Finasteride or Dutasteride

Our EU-licensed doctors look for specific criteria to ensure these medications are safe and effective for you. Finasteride and Dutasteride are typically prescribed for men experiencing male pattern baldness (androgenetic alopecia). The doctor will assess your medical history, current health conditions, and the pattern of your hair loss to determine suitability. These medications work by inhibiting DHT (dihydrotestosterone), a hormone that contributes to hair follicle shrinkage. It's crucial that you provide accurate and complete information in your medical questionnaire to allow for a thorough assessment.

What Finasteride and Dutasteride actually do (and don't do)

Finasteride and Dutasteride are oral medications designed to treat male pattern baldness. They work by reducing the levels of DHT in the scalp, which helps to stop hair loss and, in many cases, promote new hair growth. Finasteride typically reduces DHT by about 70%, while Dutasteride can reduce it by over 90%. You won't see immediate results; it usually takes 3-6 months of consistent use to notice a reduction in hair shedding, and 6-12 months for visible regrowth. These medications are not a cure for baldness, and results vary. They are most effective in preventing further hair loss and regrowing hair in areas that are thinning, rather than completely bald.

Side effects and when to stop

Like all medications, Finasteride and Dutasteride can have side effects. Common but rare side effects may include sexual dysfunction (such as decreased libido, erectile dysfunction, or ejaculation disorders), breast tenderness or enlargement, and skin rash. Most side effects are mild and temporary. However, if you experience persistent or severe side effects, you should stop the medication and consult with a doctor immediately. Our doctors will discuss potential side effects with you during the assessment and advise you on what to monitor. It's important to report any concerns to your doctor.
