Who qualifies for Finasteride

Topical Finasteride is primarily for adult men experiencing androgenetic alopecia (male pattern baldness). When you complete your online medical questionnaire, the doctor looks for a clear diagnosis of male pattern hair loss. They will assess your full medical history, current medications, and any contraindications. It is important to disclose all health conditions during your online consultation. The doctor will determine if topical Finasteride is a safe and appropriate treatment for your specific situation.

What Finasteride actually does (and doesn't do)

Topical Finasteride works by inhibiting 5-alpha-reductase, an enzyme that converts testosterone into dihydrotestosterone (DHT). DHT is the primary hormone responsible for shrinking hair follicles in male pattern baldness. By reducing DHT levels in the scalp, Finasteride helps to stop hair loss and can promote the regrowth of thicker, healthier hair. It does not cure baldness, and results require consistent use. You can typically expect to see a reduction in hair shedding within 1–2 months, with noticeable improvements in hair thickness after 3–6 months. Maximum results are usually seen after 6–12 months of continuous treatment. Finasteride is most effective for preventing further hair loss and regrowing hair in areas that are thinning, rather than for completely bald areas.

Side effects and when to stop

While topical Finasteride generally has fewer systemic side effects than oral Finasteride, some individuals may experience local scalp irritation like redness, itching, or dryness. An initial increase in hair shedding can occur as hair follicles adjust. Though rare with topical application, systemic side effects similar to oral Finasteride, such as decreased libido or erectile dysfunction, are possible. If you experience any severe or concerning side effects, stop using the medication and consult with a doctor immediately. Your online doctor is available through your private, RGPD-compliant chat within your Hi-Doctor account to discuss any concerns.
