Who qualifies for prescription hair loss treatments

Our EU-licensed doctors review each case individually to ensure your safety and treatment effectiveness. They look for specific criteria:

• Androgenetic Alopecia (Male/Female Pattern Hair Loss): This is the most common form of hair loss, often genetic, where Finasteride or Minoxidil are typically most effective.
• Overall Health: Doctors assess your medical history for any contraindications or conditions that might make these treatments unsafe or less effective.
• Age: Finasteride is generally prescribed for adult males. Minoxidil can be used by both men and women.
• Absence of Other Conditions: Your doctor will rule out other causes of hair loss that require different treatments, such as alopecia areata, scalp infections, or significant nutritional deficiencies.

The doctor's primary goal is to determine if prescription hair loss treatments are medically appropriate and safe for your specific situation.

What Finasteride and Minoxidil actually do (and don't do)

Prescription hair loss treatments like Finasteride and Minoxidil work through different mechanisms to combat hair thinning and promote regrowth:

• Finasteride: This oral medication works by blocking the enzyme 5-alpha-reductase, which converts testosterone into dihydrotestosterone (DHT). DHT is a key hormone responsible for shrinking hair follicles in genetically susceptible individuals, leading to hair loss. By reducing DHT levels, Finasteride helps prevent further hair loss and can promote regrowth of existing hair. It is primarily used for male pattern baldness.
• Minoxidil: Available as a topical solution or oral tablet, Minoxidil is a vasodilator. It is believed to work by increasing blood flow to the hair follicles, extending the growth phase of hair, and enlarging shrunken follicles. This can lead to thicker, stronger hair and stimulate new growth. Minoxidil is effective for both male and female pattern hair loss.

Realistic Timelines: It's important to have realistic expectations. Hair growth is a slow process. You typically need to use these treatments consistently for at least 3-6 months before noticing visible improvement, and often 12 months for full results. Discontinuing treatment usually leads to reversal of benefits.

Side effects and when to stop

Like all medications, Finasteride and Minoxidil can have side effects. Your Hi-Doctor will discuss these with you, but here's a general overview:

• Finasteride: Possible side effects, though generally rare, include decreased libido, erectile dysfunction, and breast tenderness. These are often reversible upon stopping the medication.
• Minoxidil (Topical): Common side effects can include scalp irritation, itching, dryness, or unwanted hair growth in areas where the product is accidentally applied.
• Minoxidil (Oral): While often well-tolerated at low doses, oral Minoxidil can have systemic side effects such as dizziness, fluid retention, and changes in heart rate.

It's crucial to inform your doctor if you experience any concerning side effects. In most cases, if side effects are persistent or severe, the doctor may advise you to stop the medication, and they will help you explore alternative options.
