Who qualifies for Minoxidil

Our EU-licensed doctors assess each patient individually to ensure Minoxidil is safe and appropriate for your specific situation. They look for specific patterns of hair loss, medical history, and current medications. Minoxidil is commonly prescribed for androgenetic alopecia (male and female pattern baldness). During your online consultation, you will provide details about your health, allowing the doctor to determine if Minoxidil is the right treatment for you. Conditions such as certain scalp issues, pregnancy, or breastfeeding may be contraindications.

What Minoxidil actually does (and doesn't do)

Minoxidil is a topical medication that works by widening blood vessels and opening potassium channels, which helps deliver more oxygen, blood, and nutrients to the hair follicles. This process can stimulate dormant hair follicles and extend the anagen (growth) phase of the hair cycle. It is primarily used to slow hair loss and promote new hair growth. It's important to understand that Minoxidil does not cure baldness and must be used consistently to maintain results. Visible improvements typically take at least 4–6 months of continuous use. It is most effective for recent hair loss and on the crown area, rather than receding hairlines.

Side effects and when to stop

Like all medications, Minoxidil can have side effects, though they are usually mild. Common side effects include scalp irritation, dryness, flaking, or itching. Less common but more serious side effects can include unwanted facial hair growth, dizziness, rapid heartbeat, or swelling of the hands and feet. If you experience any severe or persistent side effects, or if your hair loss worsens, you should stop using Minoxidil and consult with a doctor. Our doctors provide clear guidance on what to watch for and when to seek further medical advice.
