Who qualifies for Finasteride or Dutasteride
Our EU-licensed doctors individually assess each patient to determine if Finasteride or Dutasteride is appropriate. Generally, doctors look for:
- Adult men experiencing male pattern baldness (androgenetic alopecia) or benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH).
- No known allergies to the active ingredients.
- No severe liver disease.
- Patients who are not planning to father children in the near future (especially for Finasteride due to potential risks to a male fetus).
- No current use of certain interacting medications.
The doctor reviews your full medical history and current health status through the online questionnaire to ensure your safety and the treatment's effectiveness.
What Finasteride or Dutasteride actually does (and doesn't do)
Finasteride and Dutasteride are medications that work by inhibiting the enzyme 5-alpha-reductase. This enzyme converts testosterone into dihydrotestosterone (DHT), a more potent androgen. By reducing DHT levels, these medications can:
- For hair loss: Slow down or stop hair loss, and in some cases, promote new hair growth by reducing DHT's shrinking effect on hair follicles. Realistic timelines for visible results are typically 3-6 months, with full effects seen after 12 months or more.
- For prostate health: Reduce the size of an enlarged prostate (BPH), improving urinary flow and reducing symptoms.
These medications do not cure baldness or BPH, but they manage the conditions. They are not effective for hair loss caused by factors other than DHT, nor do they treat prostate cancer.
Side effects and when to stop
Like all medications, Finasteride and Dutasteride can cause side effects. Common ones can include decreased libido, erectile dysfunction, and ejaculation disorders. Less common but more serious side effects can include breast tenderness or enlargement, and mood changes. It's crucial to discuss any concerns with your doctor.
- When to stop: If you experience severe side effects, allergic reactions, or significant mood changes, stop the medication and consult a healthcare professional immediately.
- Long-term use: Many men use these medications for extended periods. Regular follow-ups with a doctor are recommended to monitor effectiveness and side effects.
Our doctors provide clear guidance on potential side effects and when to seek further medical attention.
