About This Treatment
Finasteride is an FDA-approved prescription medication for treating male pattern baldness (androgenetic alopecia). It works by blocking the conversion of testosterone to DHT, the hormone primarily responsible for hair follicle miniaturization.
Most men see results within 3-6 months of consistent daily use. Our providers will evaluate your hair loss pattern and health history to determine if finasteride is right for you.
Finasteride is a prescription medication used to treat male pattern baldness (androgenetic alopecia). It works by inhibiting the enzyme 5-alpha-reductase, which blocks the conversion of testosterone to dihydrotestosterone (DHT)—the hormone primarily responsible for hair follicle miniaturization and progressive thinning.
With consistent daily use, most men begin to notice results—such as reduced shedding and possible thickening or regrowth of hair—within about 3 to 6 months. Continued use is typically necessary to maintain these benefits.
Before starting finasteride, a healthcare provider will review your pattern of hair loss, medical history, current medications, and any risk factors or contraindications to determine whether finasteride is an appropriate and safe option for you.
