Who qualifies for Minoxidil

Our EU-licensed doctors carefully evaluate your medical history to ensure Oral Minoxidil is safe and appropriate for you. They look for specific criteria, including the type and severity of your hair loss, your overall health, and any existing medical conditions or medications you are taking. For instance, individuals with certain cardiovascular conditions or those pregnant or breastfeeding may not qualify. The doctor assesses these factors to determine if Oral Minoxidil is a suitable and safe treatment option for your specific situation.

What Minoxidil actually does (and doesn't do)

Oral Minoxidil works by promoting blood flow to the hair follicles, extending the hair growth phase and stimulating dormant follicles. This can lead to increased hair density and reduced hair shedding over time. However, it's important to have realistic expectations. Results are not immediate; you typically see visible improvements after 3–6 months of consistent use. Minoxidil is most effective for androgenetic alopecia (pattern baldness) and may not be suitable for all types of hair loss. It does not cure hair loss, but rather manages it, meaning continuous use is often required to maintain results.

Side effects and when to stop

Like all medications, Oral Minoxidil can have side effects. Common ones include unwanted hair growth on other body parts, temporary shedding at the start of treatment, and mild fluid retention. Less common but more serious side effects can include heart palpitations, dizziness, or swelling in the ankles. It's crucial to inform your doctor about any side effects you experience. You should stop taking Minoxidil and seek medical advice immediately if you experience chest pain, rapid heartbeat, fainting, or significant swelling. Your Hi-Doctor physician will guide you on managing side effects and when discontinuation might be necessary.
