Who qualifies for finasteride or dutasteride
Our EU-licensed doctors assess each case individually. Generally, they look for adult male patients experiencing male pattern baldness (androgenetic alopecia). These medications are typically prescribed for men, as their use in women, especially those of childbearing age, is contraindicated due to potential risks. The doctor will consider your medical history, current medications, and any pre-existing conditions to ensure finasteride or dutasteride is safe and appropriate for you.
What finasteride and dutasteride actually do (and don't do)
Finasteride and dutasteride are oral medications that work by inhibiting the enzyme 5-alpha reductase, which converts testosterone into dihydrotestosterone (DHT). DHT is the primary hormone responsible for shrinking hair follicles in genetically susceptible individuals, leading to hair loss. By reducing DHT levels, these medications help to stop hair loss and, in many cases, promote new hair growth. It's important to understand that results are not immediate; it can take 3-6 months to see noticeable improvements, and consistent, long-term use is necessary to maintain these results. They do not cure baldness, but rather manage the progression of hair loss.

Side effects and when to stop
Like all medications, finasteride and dutasteride can cause side effects. Common side effects, though rare, can include decreased libido, erectile dysfunction, and ejaculatory disorders. Less common but more serious side effects may include mood changes, depression, and male breast cancer (extremely rare). If you experience any persistent or concerning side effects, you should stop the medication and consult with a doctor immediately. Our doctors will discuss potential risks and benefits during your consultation to ensure you make an informed decision.
