Who qualifies for Dutasteride

When you complete your medical questionnaire, our EU-licensed doctors look for specific criteria to determine if Dutasteride is appropriate for you. Dutasteride (Avodart) is primarily prescribed for benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) but is also used off-label for male pattern baldness (androgenetic alopecia). Doctors assess your medical history, current medications, existing conditions, and the severity of your hair loss or BPH symptoms. They consider contraindications such as liver disease, prostate cancer, or known hypersensitivity to the drug. The doctor always prioritises your safety and health, ensuring Dutasteride is a suitable and safe treatment for your specific situation.

What Dutasteride actually does (and doesn't do)

Dutasteride is a 5-alpha-reductase inhibitor. It works by blocking the conversion of testosterone into dihydrotestosterone (DHT), a hormone that contributes to both prostate enlargement and hair loss. By reducing DHT levels, Dutasteride can help shrink an enlarged prostate and, in cases of male pattern baldness, slow down or even reverse hair loss by protecting hair follicles from DHT's effects. You should expect to see noticeable results for hair loss within 3 to 6 months, with full effects often taking 12 months or more. It is important to understand that Dutasteride manages the condition; it does not cure it. If you stop taking the medication, the effects will gradually reverse, and symptoms may return.

Side effects and when to stop

Like any medication, Dutasteride can cause side effects. Common ones include decreased libido, erectile dysfunction, and ejaculation disorders. These are usually mild and reversible. Less common but more serious side effects include breast tenderness, enlargement, or lumps, which should be reported to a doctor immediately. If you experience severe allergic reactions, unexplained mood changes, or persistent sexual side effects, you should stop taking Dutasteride and consult a medical professional. Our doctors will discuss all potential risks and benefits during your online consultation to ensure you are fully informed.
