How it works — get your Dutasteride prescription in 4 steps

  1. Fill out the online medical questionnaire. This takes just 2–3 minutes.
  2. A licensed EU doctor reviews your case in private.
  3. If the doctor finds treatment appropriate, you receive a REMPE electronic prescription within 24 hours.
  4. Pick up your medication at any EU pharmacy in Portugal or across the EU.

Who qualifies for Dutasteride

Our EU-licensed doctors individually review each patient's medical history to ensure Dutasteride is safe and appropriate for you. They look for specific criteria, including:

  • A diagnosis of androgenetic alopecia (male pattern baldness).
  • No known allergies to Dutasteride or similar medications.
  • No severe liver disease.
  • Patients must be male. Dutasteride is contraindicated in women, especially those who are pregnant or may become pregnant, due to potential harm to a male fetus.
  • No concurrent use of certain medications that may interact negatively with Dutasteride.

Your honesty and thoroughness in the medical questionnaire are crucial for the doctor's assessment.

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 shrinks hair follicles and leads to male pattern baldness. By reducing DHT levels, Dutasteride helps to slow down hair loss and, for some, stimulate new hair growth. This makes it a potent option for treating androgenetic alopecia.

Realistically, you won't see immediate results. Significant improvements in hair density usually become noticeable after 3–6 months of consistent use, with full effects potentially taking 12 months or longer. It's important to understand that Dutasteride manages hair loss; it doesn't cure it. Discontinuing the medication will likely result in the hair loss process resuming.

Side effects and when to stop

Like all medications, Dutasteride can have side effects. Common ones include decreased libido, erectile dysfunction, decreased ejaculate volume, and breast tenderness or enlargement. These are often reversible upon stopping the medication. It's also important to note that Dutasteride can affect prostate-specific antigen (PSA) levels, which are used to screen for prostate cancer. Always inform your doctor you are taking Dutasteride if you undergo PSA testing.

You should stop taking Dutasteride and consult a doctor immediately if you experience:

  • Any signs of an allergic reaction (e.g., rash, itching, swelling of the face or tongue).
  • Persistent or severe sexual side effects.
  • Depression or changes in mood.
  • New or worsening breast lumps, pain, or nipple discharge.

Our EU-licensed doctors provide a private, RGPD-compliant chat inside your account for any concerns you may have.
