Hair loss Treatment

Oral minoxidil, finasteride, dutasteride, spironolactone and ketoconazole shampoo. Options differ for men and women, and a licensed provider chooses based on your health history and the pattern of your hair loss.

These treatments work for as long as you use them. If you stop, the hair they maintained or regrew is gradually lost again, so treat this as a long term plan and discuss it with your provider.

Finasteride and dutasteride can cause sexual side effects in a small number of men and can affect PSA test results, so tell any clinician who tests you that you take them. Read the information that comes with your medication and contact your provider if something concerns you.

They are not prescribed to women who are pregnant or may become pregnant, and broken or crushed tablets should not be handled during pregnancy. For female pattern hair loss a provider will look at other options, such as minoxidil or spironolactone.

Both prices are shown on every product before you pay. On a subscription, your next refill date is shown in your account, and you can cancel by 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time the day before to skip it. Refills already approved, dispensed or shipped cannot be canceled or refunded.

A licensed U.S. pharmacy fills it and ships it free, in plain packaging, with a tracking link sent the moment it leaves. Transit time after that depends on your location and the partner pharmacy.
