What is Androgenetic alopecia?

Androgenetic alopecia sits within the hair growth area that Hi-Doctor covers. Our doctors review your case individually — not through an algorithm — and propose a therapeutic approach when indicated.

How is Androgenetic alopecia evaluated in an online consultation?

You fill in a hair growth-oriented medical questionnaire (~4 min). An EU-licensed doctor reviews your clinical history, current medication, allergies and background in under 24 h. If clarifications are needed, they message you via the private chat in your account.

What treatments does the doctor consider for Androgenetic alopecia?

The doctor proposes the most appropriate treatment among those authorised in the EU for hair growth. The consultation costs €25; if your case is not eligible, the doctor tells you at no extra cost and the amount is refunded in full.

How long until you see results?

It depends on the case. For hair growth, reasonable timelines are explained during the consultation and follow-up lives inside the private chat. The full medical record stays in an auditable thread inside your account.

Can I consult for Androgenetic alopecia from Logroño?

Yes. Hi-Doctor runs 100% online across the EU, so from Logroño you can fill in the questionnaire and receive the medical review without travelling. The electronic prescription issued by the licensed doctor is valid at any EU pharmacy under Directive 2011/24/EU; in Spain it is dispensed directly from the prescription QR.

How does a doctor evaluate a hair-loss case in an online consultation?

Through the pattern of loss, how long it has been progressing, family history and current medication. In some cases we ask for scalp photos. The doctor proposes a tailored treatment plan and adjusts it to your tolerance.

What is the private electronic prescription and why is it valid across the EU?

The private electronic prescription (Receta Médica Privada Electrónica) is issued by a licensed doctor in Spain. It is a PDF carrying every field required by EU Directive 2011/24/EU (patient, prescriber with country of registration, active ingredient, dose), which makes it legally recognised across all 27 EU member states. In Spanish pharmacies it is dispensed from the QR; outside Spain, the pharmacist dispenses the locally marketed equivalent of the same active ingredient.

How does Hi-Doctor work step by step?

1) Fill in an online medical questionnaire in about 4 minutes. 2) An EU-licensed doctor reviews your case and replies in under 24 h through the private chat in your account. 3) If eligible, the doctor issues an electronic prescription. 4) You collect it at any EU pharmacy. The consultation costs €25 and, if the doctor decides it is not safe to prescribe, the full amount is refunded.
