4. Print the PDF or show it on your phone — present it at any pharmacy in the EU to collect Finasteride.

Who qualifies for Finasteride

When you complete your medical questionnaire, the doctor looks for specific criteria to ensure topical Finasteride is safe and effective for you. Generally, this treatment is for adult men experiencing androgenetic alopecia (male pattern baldness). The doctor assesses your medical history, current medications, and the nature of your hair loss. They ensure you have no contraindications that would make Finasteride unsuitable. Your health and safety are the doctor's priority.

What Finasteride actually does (and doesn't do)

Topical Finasteride works by targeting the enzyme 5-alpha reductase in your scalp. This enzyme converts testosterone into dihydrotestosterone (DHT), a hormone that shrinks hair follicles and leads to hair thinning and loss. By inhibiting this conversion, Finasteride reduces DHT levels in the scalp, which can slow down hair loss and promote new hair growth. Results are not instant; you typically see a decrease in hair shedding within 1-3 months, with visible new growth appearing after 3-6 months. Consistent use is key, as stopping the treatment will likely cause hair loss to resume. Topical Finasteride primarily acts locally on the scalp, often leading to fewer systemic side effects compared to oral Finasteride.

Side effects and when to stop

Like all medications, topical Finasteride can have side effects, though they are generally milder and less common than with oral Finasteride due to its localized action. Common side effects can include scalp irritation, itching, or redness at the application site. Systemic side effects, such as a decrease in libido or erectile dysfunction, are rare but possible. If you experience any severe or persistent side effects, or notice any concerning changes to your health, you should stop using the medication and consult with a doctor immediately. Your prescribing doctor can provide detailed information on potential side effects and what to look out for.
