Who qualifies
Eligibility for prescription hair growth medication is determined by an EU-licensed doctor based on your medical history and current health status. Generally, these medications are considered for adults experiencing specific types of hair loss, such as androgenetic alopecia (male or female pattern baldness). Our doctors assess every case individually through the online questionnaire to ensure the treatment is safe and appropriate for you.
What the medication actually does
Prescription hair growth medications work by targeting the underlying causes of hair loss. For example, some medications work by blocking the production of hormones that contribute to hair thinning, while others promote blood flow to the scalp, stimulating hair follicles. These treatments aim to slow down hair loss, promote new hair growth, and improve hair density and thickness. The specific mechanism depends on the medication prescribed by the doctor.
Side effects and when to stop
Like all medications, approved hair growth treatments can have side effects. Common ones may include scalp irritation, itching, or unwanted hair growth in other areas. More serious but rare side effects can occur, and your Hi-Doctor will inform you about specific risks associated with any prescribed medication. You should stop treatment and seek medical advice immediately if you experience severe allergic reactions, chest pain, or any other concerning symptoms. The doctor will also provide guidance on when and how to discontinue treatment if necessary.
