What causes hair loss?

The most common cause of hair loss is male pattern baldness. This can be largely genetic and related to a hormone known as DHT, or dihydrotestosterone, which can cause your hair follicles to shrink. However, this isn’t the only contributor, and it can also be due to stress, deficiencies in certain nutrients and vitamins, hormonal imbalances, certain medicines and underlying medical conditions.

What treatments for hair loss are available from Pharmacy Planet?

At Pharmacy Planet, we offer the following clinically approved hair loss treatments: Finasteride (Propecia), an oral tablet for men which aims to reduce DHT levels, and Minoxidil (Regaine), which comes in the form of a topical solution or foam and can help stimulate hair growth. These treatments can help slow hair loss and promote regrowth when used consistently.

How does Finasteride work for hair loss?

Finasteride is a prescription-only treatment for men with early to moderate hair loss. It works by blocking an enzyme known as 5-alpha reductase, which converts testosterone into DHT. Lowering DHT levels can prevent hair follicles from shrinking further, slowing hair loss and potentially allowing regrowth.

Is Minoxidil effective for hair regrowth?

Yes, Minoxidil works by increasing blood flow to the hair follicles, which can help reverse follicle shrinkage and promote regrowth. Minoxidil can be obtained over the counter and should be applied to the scalp twice daily. Results may be seen over a 3–6 month period.

Are there any side effects to hair loss treatments?

With Finasteride, some may experience reduced libido, erectile dysfunction, or breast tenderness in a small percentage of users. With Minoxidil, side effects can include scalp irritation, dryness, itching, or in rare cases, initial increased hair shedding. Most side effects are mild and temporary, but persistent or severe effects should be reported to a healthcare provider.
