How hair loss treatment works
Get startedIt's mostly genetic
Male pattern hair loss is driven by DHT, a hormone that gradually shrinks hair follicles in people who are sensitive to it.
Treatments work at the follicle
Finasteride lowers DHT. Minoxidil supports growth at the follicle. Topical formulas combine them with other ingredients.
Results take months
Hair grows slowly, so most people need three to six months of daily use to judge results. Stopping usually reverses them.

Hair loss questions
Find my treatmentWho are these treatments for?
Adult men with pattern hair loss. Your provider reviews your history before prescribing. Finasteride is not for women who are or may become pregnant.
When will I see a difference?
Shedding often slows first. Visible regrowth, when it happens, usually takes three to six months and keeps improving for up to a year.
What happens if I stop?
Hair loss typically resumes within months of stopping, and gains are gradually lost. Treatment works for as long as you keep using it.
Are there side effects?
A small share of men report sexual side effects with finasteride. Topical formulas can irritate the scalp. Your provider explains the risks before prescribing.
