Who qualifies for Finasteride

Topical Finasteride is prescribed to adult men experiencing androgenetic alopecia (male pattern baldness). The doctor assesses your medical history, current health status, and hair loss pattern through your online questionnaire. Contraindications include certain liver conditions, prostate issues, and known allergies to Finasteride. Women, especially those who are pregnant or planning to become pregnant, should not use Finasteride. Your doctor carefully reviews all details to ensure topical Finasteride is safe and appropriate for you before issuing a prescription.

What Finasteride actually does (and doesn't do)

Topical Finasteride works by inhibiting the enzyme 5-alpha-reductase in the scalp. This enzyme converts testosterone into dihydrotestosterone (DHT), a hormone that shrinks hair follicles and leads to hair loss. By reducing local DHT levels, Finasteride helps slow hair thinning and can promote new hair growth. It is applied directly to the scalp, aiming to minimise systemic side effects often associated with oral Finasteride.

It's important to set realistic expectations: Finasteride slows hair loss and can regrow hair in some areas, but it does not cure baldness or guarantee a full head of hair. Consistent use is key, and visible results typically take 3–6 months, with full effects often seen after 12 months. It primarily works on existing active hair follicles, not on completely bald areas.

Side effects and when to stop

While generally well-tolerated, topical Finasteride can have side effects. Common ones include local scalp irritation, itching, dryness, or a temporary increase in hair shedding when starting treatment. Less commonly, systemic side effects similar to oral Finasteride, such as reduced libido or erectile dysfunction, can occur, though they are much rarer with topical application due to lower systemic absorption.

If you experience persistent or severe side effects, or any unexpected changes in your health, you should stop using Finasteride and consult with your doctor immediately via the secure chat in your Hi-Doctor account.
