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, it's considered for adult men experiencing androgenetic alopecia (male pattern baldness). The doctor will assess your medical history, any existing conditions, and current medications to identify potential contraindications or risks. They will also consider the extent of your hair loss and your overall health to determine if this treatment is appropriate. Hi-Doctor's EU-licensed doctors review every case individually, prioritising your safety and well-being. This ensures you receive the correct Finasteride prescription if it's right for you.
What Finasteride actually does (and doesn't do)
Topical Finasteride works by inhibiting the enzyme 5-alpha-reductase, which converts testosterone into dihydrotestosterone (DHT). DHT is a key hormone contributing to hair follicle miniaturisation in androgenetic alopecia. By reducing DHT levels in the scalp, Finasteride helps to slow down hair loss and can promote the regrowth of thicker, healthier hair. It's important to understand that Finasteride is not a miracle cure for all types of hair loss, nor does it guarantee a full head of hair for everyone. Results are typically seen gradually, with noticeable improvements often appearing after 3 to 6 months of consistent use. Maximum results are usually achieved within 6 to 12 months. Discontinuing treatment will likely reverse any gains.
Side effects and when to stop
While topical Finasteride aims to minimise systemic side effects compared to oral versions, some individuals may still experience them. Common side effects can include scalp irritation, itching, or redness at the application site. Less commonly, due to some systemic absorption, side effects such as decreased libido or erectile dysfunction might occur, though the risk is significantly lower than with oral Finasteride. If you experience any persistent or concerning side effects, it's crucial to stop the medication and consult with your doctor immediately. Your Hi-Doctor physician can advise on managing side effects or adjusting your treatment plan if necessary. Medical honesty builds trust, and your well-being is our priority.
