Who qualifies for Finasteride

Finasteride is typically prescribed for male pattern baldness (androgenetic alopecia). When you complete your online medical questionnaire, the doctor will assess several factors, including your medical history, current medications, and the nature of your hair loss. They look for specific criteria to ensure Finasteride is safe and effective for you. Contraindications, such as certain liver conditions or known allergies to the medication, will be carefully considered. The doctor's primary goal is to ensure your safety and the appropriateness of the treatment.

What Finasteride actually does (and doesn't do)

Finasteride works by blocking the conversion of testosterone to dihydrotestosterone (DHT), a hormone responsible for shrinking hair follicles in male pattern baldness. By reducing DHT levels, Finasteride can slow down hair loss and, in some cases, promote new hair growth. It's important to understand that Finasteride is not a cure for baldness, and its effects are typically maintained only as long as you continue taking the medication. Realistic timelines suggest visible results may take 3 to 6 months of consistent use, with full effects often seen after 12 months. It primarily targets the scalp and does not affect body hair growth.

Side effects and when to stop

Like all medications, Finasteride can have side effects. Common side effects can include decreased libido, erectile dysfunction, and ejaculatory disorders. These are usually mild and reversible upon stopping the medication. Less common but more serious side effects can include allergic reactions, breast tenderness or enlargement, and, rarely, mood changes or depression. It's crucial to discuss any concerns with your doctor immediately. If you experience severe or persistent side effects, or notice any unusual lumps or pain in the breast area, you should stop taking Finasteride and seek medical attention.
