Who qualifies for Finasteride

Our EU-licensed doctors carefully assess each case to determine if Finasteride is suitable for you. They look at your medical history, current health, and specific hair loss pattern. Generally, Finasteride is prescribed for male pattern baldness (androgenetic alopecia). Key factors the doctor considers include:

• Your age and overall health.
• The type and extent of your hair loss.
• Any existing medical conditions or medications you are taking.
• Contraindications, such as liver conditions or known allergies to Finasteride.

The doctor’s priority is your safety and ensuring Finasteride is the right and effective treatment for your specific situation.

What Finasteride actually does (and doesn't do)

Finasteride is an oral medication that works by inhibiting the enzyme 5-alpha-reductase, which converts testosterone into dihydrotestosterone (DHT). DHT is a primary cause of male pattern baldness, as it shrinks hair follicles. By reducing DHT levels, Finasteride helps to:

• Slow down or stop hair loss.
• Promote new hair growth in some areas, particularly the crown.
• Thicken existing hair.

It’s important to understand that Finasteride does not cure baldness, nor does it work for all types of hair loss. Consistent, long-term use is necessary to maintain results. If you stop taking Finasteride, any hair gained will likely be lost within 6-12 months. Realistic timelines for seeing results typically range from 3-6 months for a noticeable reduction in hair shedding, with more significant regrowth appearing after 6-12 months of continuous use.

Side effects and when to stop

Like all medications, Finasteride can have side effects, though most patients tolerate it well. Common side effects, which are usually mild and temporary, can include decreased libido, erectile dysfunction, and ejaculatory disorders. Less common side effects may include breast tenderness or enlargement, skin rash, or depression. It's crucial to be aware of these and discuss them with your doctor.

You should stop taking Finasteride and consult your doctor immediately if you experience:

• Severe allergic reactions (e.g., rash, itching, swelling of the face/tongue/throat, severe dizziness, trouble breathing).
• Persistent or worsening sexual side effects.
• Changes in breast tissue, such as lumps, pain, or nipple discharge.
• Significant mood changes, including depression.

Your doctor will advise you on the best course of action based on your individual response to the medication.
