Who qualifies for Dutasteride

When you complete your medical questionnaire, the doctor looks for specific criteria to determine if Dutasteride is appropriate for your condition. Generally, Dutasteride is prescribed for male pattern hair loss (androgenetic alopecia) in men, or for benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). The doctor will assess your medical history, current medications, and any pre-existing conditions to ensure your safety and the effectiveness of the treatment. Certain conditions or sensitivities may make Dutasteride unsuitable, in which case your €25 consultation fee is refunded.

What Dutasteride actually does (and doesn't do)

Dutasteride is a 5-alpha reductase inhibitor. It works by blocking the conversion of testosterone to dihydrotestosterone (DHT), a hormone that contributes to hair loss and prostate enlargement. By reducing DHT levels, Dutasteride can help to slow down hair loss and, in some cases, promote hair regrowth. For BPH, it helps to shrink the prostate and improve urinary flow.

Results for hair loss typically become noticeable after 3-6 months of consistent use, with full effects often seen after 12 months or more. It's important to understand that Dutasteride is not a cure for hair loss; rather, it manages the condition. If treatment is stopped, hair loss may resume.

Side effects and when to stop

Like all medications, Dutasteride can cause side effects. Common side effects may include decreased libido, erectile dysfunction, ejaculation disorders, and breast tenderness or enlargement. Less common but more serious side effects include allergic reactions, depression, and, rarely, an increased risk of high-grade prostate cancer.

It's crucial to discuss any side effects with your prescribing doctor. If you experience severe symptoms like chest pain, difficulty breathing, or significant mood changes, seek immediate medical attention. Your Hi-Doctor physician will guide you on when and if to stop treatment based on your individual response and any adverse effects.
