Who qualifies for Finasteride

When considering your case for a Finasteride prescription online, our doctors look for specific criteria to ensure safe and effective treatment. Finasteride is typically prescribed for male pattern baldness (androgenetic alopecia). You must be an adult male experiencing hair loss. The doctor will assess your medical history, current medications, and any pre-existing conditions to determine if Finasteride is suitable for you. Contraindications often include liver disorders, prostate conditions, or known allergies to the drug's components.

What Finasteride actually does (and doesn't do)

Finasteride works by inhibiting the enzyme 5-alpha-reductase, which converts testosterone into dihydrotestosterone (DHT). DHT is a key hormone responsible for shrinking hair follicles in male pattern baldness. By reducing DHT levels, Finasteride helps to slow down hair loss and, in many cases, promotes hair regrowth. It's important to understand that Finasteride is not a cure for baldness, and its effects are sustained only as long as you continue treatment. Realistic timelines for seeing results typically range from 3 to 6 months of consistent use, with full effects often noticed after 12 months. It does not prevent other types of hair loss not related to DHT, nor does it work instantly.

Side effects and when to stop

Like all medications, Finasteride can have side effects. Common side effects, though generally mild and reversible, can include decreased libido, erectile dysfunction, and ejaculation disorders. Less common but more serious side effects can include mood changes, depression, and, rarely, male breast cancer. It's crucial to discuss any concerns with your doctor. You should stop taking Finasteride and seek medical attention immediately if you experience persistent mood changes, breast lumps, pain, or nipple discharge. Our EU-licensed doctors will discuss potential side effects and monitor your suitability for the treatment.
