Who qualifies for Finasteride

  • Age: Generally prescribed for adult men.
  • Medical history: Doctors review your health conditions and current medications to ensure Finasteride is safe for you.

The doctor's review ensures your safety and the effectiveness of the treatment.

What Finasteride actually does (and doesn't do)

Finasteride is a medication that targets male pattern baldness by inhibiting the conversion of testosterone into dihydrotestosterone (DHT). DHT is a hormone that shrinks hair follicles, leading to thinning hair and hair loss.

By reducing DHT levels in the scalp, Finasteride helps hair follicles recover, promoting the growth of thicker, healthier hair. It works specifically on the type II 5-alpha-reductase enzyme, which is key in hair loss.

What it does:

  • Slows down or stops hair loss.
  • Promotes new hair growth in some men.
  • Requires consistent use to maintain benefits.

What it doesn't do:

  • Produce immediate results; it takes months to see effects.
  • Work for all types of hair loss.
  • Guarantee hair regrowth for everyone.

Expect to see initial results, like reduced shedding, within 3-6 months. More significant improvements in hair density typically appear after 6-12 months. Continued use is necessary; stopping the medication will likely reverse any positive effects.

Side effects and when to stop

Like all medications, Finasteride can have side effects. Most men tolerate it well, but it's important to be aware of potential reactions. If you experience any severe or persistent side effects, you should stop taking the medication and contact your doctor immediately.

Commonly reported side effects include:

  • Sexual side effects: Decreased libido, erectile dysfunction, ejaculation disorders. These are usually reversible if you stop the medication.
  • Psychological side effects: Some users report depression or anxiety.
  • Other side effects: Rarely, breast tenderness or enlargement may occur.

Your EU-licensed doctor will discuss these potential side effects with you during your online consultation. Always follow their advice and report any concerns.
