Hi-Doctor offers a straightforward path: pay just €45 every 90 days (cancel anytime) or €35 one-off for an online consultation with an EU-licensed doctor. If approved, you receive a valid electronic prescription within 24 hours. In several EU countries, including Italy, France, Belgium and Ireland, Hi Doctor connects with the local prescription system; elsewhere the patient receives an electronic prescription signed by an EU-licensed doctor, and each pharmacy reviews it and decides whether it can dispense it.

How it works: get your hair loss medication prescription in 4 steps
- Fill out the online medical questionnaire (2–3 minutes) and pay the consultation fee of €45 every 90 days or €35 one-off.
- A licensed EU doctor reviews your case in private. If the doctor determines the treatment is NOT appropriate for you, your payment is refunded automatically — you pay nothing.
- If approved, you receive a valid electronic prescription (PDF file) in your Hi-Doctor account and by email within 24 hours.
- Print the PDF or show it on your phone and present it at a pharmacy; the pharmacist will review it and decide whether it can dispense your hair loss medication.
Who qualifies for hair loss medication
Our EU-licensed doctors assess each patient individually to ensure safe and effective treatment. They look for specific criteria to determine if hair loss medication, such as Finasteride or Minoxidil, is appropriate for your case. Generally, candidates are adults experiencing male or female pattern hair loss (androgenetic alopecia). Doctors consider your medical history, existing conditions, and any other medications you are taking. For instance, Finasteride is typically prescribed for men and is not suitable for women, especially those who are pregnant or may become pregnant, due to its mechanism of action.
What hair loss medication actually does (and doesn't do)
Hair loss medications work by targeting the underlying causes of hair thinning. For example, Finasteride works by blocking the conversion of testosterone to dihydrotestosterone (DHT), a hormone that shrinks hair follicles in genetically susceptible individuals. Minoxidil, on the other hand, is thought to promote hair growth by increasing blood flow to the scalp and extending the growth phase of hair follicles. These medications aim to slow down hair loss and, in many cases, stimulate new hair growth. Results are not immediate; typically, patients see noticeable improvement after 3–6 months of consistent use. It's important to understand that these treatments manage hair loss; they do not offer a permanent cure, and continued use is necessary to maintain results.

Side effects and when to stop
Like all medications, hair loss treatments can have side effects. Common side effects for Finasteride may include sexual dysfunction (e.g., decreased libido, erectile dysfunction), though these are generally rare and often reversible upon discontinuation. Minoxidil can cause scalp irritation, itching, or unwanted hair growth in other areas if not applied carefully. It's crucial to report any persistent or severe side effects to a healthcare professional. If you experience allergic reactions (e.g., rash, swelling), chest pain, dizziness, or fainting, stop the medication immediately and seek medical attention. Your Hi-Doctor will monitor your progress and advise on the appropriate course of action.
