Who qualifies for Finasteride

Our EU-licensed doctors assess each patient individually to determine if Finasteride is appropriate. Generally, Finasteride is prescribed for men experiencing androgenetic alopecia (male pattern baldness). The doctor looks for:

• A clear diagnosis of male pattern baldness.
• No contraindications, such as liver disease or certain prostate conditions.
• No known allergies to Finasteride.
• Understanding of potential side effects and commitment to long-term treatment.

Finasteride is not typically prescribed for women, especially those who are pregnant or planning to become pregnant, due to potential risks. The doctor will ensure your health profile aligns with safe Finasteride use.

What Finasteride actually does (and doesn't do)

Finasteride works by inhibiting the enzyme 5-alpha-reductase, which converts testosterone into dihydrotestosterone (DHT). DHT is the primary hormone responsible for shrinking hair follicles and causing hair loss in men with androgenetic alopecia. By reducing DHT levels, Finasteride helps to:

• Stop further hair loss: For many men, it significantly slows down or stops the progression of balding.
• Promote regrowth: It can stimulate dormant hair follicles to regrow hair, particularly on the crown and mid-scalp.
• Improve hair thickness: Existing hair may become thicker and stronger.

What Finasteride doesn't do is regrow hair in areas where follicles have been completely inactive for a very long time, such as a completely bald scalp. Realistic timelines mean you typically see initial results after 3-6 months and more significant improvement after 12 months of consistent use. Remember, it's a long-term commitment; stopping treatment usually leads to a reversal of benefits.

Side effects and when to stop

Like all medications, Finasteride can have side effects. While most men tolerate it well, it's important to be aware of potential issues. Common side effects, though rare, can include:

• Decreased libido.
• Erectile dysfunction.
• Ejaculation disorders.
• Breast tenderness or enlargement.

If you experience any severe or persistent side effects, or notice any red flags such as mood changes or depression, you should stop taking Finasteride and consult with a doctor immediately. Our doctors are available for private, RGPD-compliant, auditable chats within your account if you have concerns.
