Who qualifies for hair loss treatment

Our EU-licensed doctors carefully review your medical history and specific symptoms to determine if prescription hair loss treatments are right for you. They look for common causes like androgenetic alopecia (male or female pattern baldness) and assess your overall health. Contraindications, existing conditions, and other medications you are taking are all considered. Generally, suitable candidates are adults experiencing progressive hair thinning or loss, who do not have underlying medical conditions that would make these treatments unsafe or ineffective. The doctor’s priority is your safety and treatment appropriateness.

What hair loss medication actually does (and doesn't do)

Prescription medications for hair loss, such as finasteride, dutasteride, and minoxidil, work in different ways to combat hair loss and promote regrowth. Finasteride and Dutasteride are oral medications that reduce the levels of dihydrotestosterone (DHT), a hormone that shrinks hair follicles. By lowering DHT, these medications can slow down hair loss and, in many cases, stimulate regrowth. Minoxidil, often a topical solution, works by increasing blood flow to the hair follicles, extending the growth phase of hair, and encouraging thicker strands. It's important to understand that these treatments are most effective for androgenetic alopecia and require consistent use over several months to see results. They do not cure hair loss permanently, and results may vary. They also don't work for all types of hair loss, such as those caused by stress or nutritional deficiencies, which may require different interventions.

Side effects and when to stop

Like all medications, hair loss treatments can have side effects. For finasteride and dutasteride, some men may experience sexual side effects like decreased libido or erectile dysfunction, though these are typically rare and often reversible upon stopping treatment. Minoxidil can sometimes cause scalp irritation, itching, or unwanted hair growth in other areas if not applied carefully. It's crucial to discuss any concerns with the doctor during your consultation. If you experience severe or persistent side effects, or notice any red flags like unexpected allergic reactions or worsening hair loss, you should stop the medication and consult a medical professional immediately. Your Hi-Doctor account provides a private, auditable chat to communicate directly with your doctor.
