Who qualifies for Finasteride

Our EU-licensed doctors carefully evaluate each patient to ensure Finasteride is a safe and appropriate treatment. Here’s what the doctor looks for in your case:

• Diagnosis of Androgenetic Alopecia (male pattern baldness): Finasteride is primarily prescribed for this condition.
• Age: Generally prescribed for adult men.
• Medical history: The doctor will check for contraindications, such as liver conditions, prostate issues, or allergies to Finasteride.
• Current medications: To avoid adverse drug interactions.

Please note: Finasteride is generally not prescribed for women, especially those who are pregnant or may become pregnant, due to potential risks.

What Finasteride actually does (and doesn't do)

Finasteride is an oral medication that works by inhibiting the enzyme 5-alpha-reductase, which is responsible for converting testosterone into dihydrotestosterone (DHT). DHT is a potent androgen hormone that shrinks hair follicles in genetically susceptible men, leading to hair loss.

• What it does: Finasteride reduces DHT levels in the scalp, which helps to slow down hair loss and, in many cases, promote new hair growth. It can thicken existing hairs and prevent further miniaturization of follicles.
• Realistic timelines: You won't see results overnight. It typically takes 3-6 months of consistent use to notice a reduction in hair loss, and 6-12 months to see significant hair regrowth. Consistency is key.
• Limitations: Finasteride is most effective for mild to moderate hair loss and may not regrow hair in areas that have been completely bald for a long time. It also needs to be taken continuously to maintain its effects; stopping treatment will likely result in the reversal of benefits.

Side effects and when to stop

Like all medications, Finasteride can have side effects, though most men tolerate it well. Typical side effects, which are usually mild and reversible upon stopping treatment, can include:

• Decreased libido (sex drive)
• Erectile dysfunction
• Ejaculation disorders
• Breast tenderness or enlargement (gynecomastia)

Red flags: While rare, more serious side effects can occur. You should stop taking Finasteride and consult a doctor immediately if you experience:

• Severe allergic reactions (rash, itching, swelling of the face/lips/tongue, difficulty breathing)
• Depression or changes in mood
• Lumps, pain, or nipple discharge in the breast area (which could be signs of male breast cancer)

Always discuss any concerns with your doctor. Our EU-licensed doctors are available through the private chat in your Hi-Doctor.ai account.
