How it works — get your Finasteride prescription in 4 steps

1. Fill out a short online medical questionnaire (2–3 minutes).
2. A licensed EU doctor privately reviews your medical information.
3. If the doctor finds treatment appropriate, you receive a REMPE electronic prescription within 24 hours in your private account and by email.
4. Pick up your Finasteride medication at any EU pharmacy – for example, in Spain, France, or Germany.

Who qualifies for Finasteride

Finasteride is primarily prescribed for male pattern baldness (androgenetic alopecia). When assessing your case for a Finasteride prescription online, our EU-licensed doctors look for several key factors. This includes a clear diagnosis of male pattern baldness, a review of your medical history to identify any contraindications, and an evaluation of current medications you might be taking. Conditions such as liver disease, prostate conditions, or certain allergies might make Finasteride unsuitable. The doctor ensures the treatment is safe and appropriate for you before issuing a prescription.

What Finasteride actually does (and doesn't do)

Finasteride works by targeting the root cause of male pattern baldness: dihydrotestosterone (DHT). It's an inhibitor that prevents testosterone from converting into DHT, a hormone responsible for shrinking hair follicles. By reducing DHT levels, Finasteride helps slow down hair loss and, for many, can promote hair regrowth and increase hair density. You won't see results overnight; consistent daily use is key. Most men notice improvements within 3–6 months, with full effects typically visible after 12 months. It doesn't cure baldness, but it effectively manages its progression. Finasteride does not work for other types of hair loss not related to DHT, nor does it guarantee full hair restoration for everyone.

Side effects and when to stop

Like all medications, Finasteride can have side effects, even at lower doses. The most commonly reported include sexual dysfunction (such as decreased libido, erectile dysfunction, or ejaculation disorders), and less frequently, mood changes like depression or anxiety. Other potential side effects can include breast tenderness or enlargement, and skin rash. If you experience any severe or persistent side effects, or if you have concerns, you should stop taking the medication and consult your doctor immediately. Our doctors provide private, RGPD-compliant chat in your account for any follow-up questions.
