What causes male pattern baldness?

Hereditary hair loss in men is caused by the effect of DHT (dihydrotestosterone) on scalp hair follicles.

DHT is a hormone naturally produced by the body. DHT causes the hair follicles to shrink over time until eventually these hairs stop growing.

Finasteride works by blocking an enzyme called 5-a reductase, which converts testosterone to DHT.

Finasteride does not typically spur growth in completely bald areas. The major benefits of finasteride are stopping hair loss and regrowing thinning hair.

Maximal effects of finasteride are typically seen within 1-2 years, but finasteride should be continued to be used regularly for maintainence.

If finasteride is discontinued, hair loss will gradually return to its previous state within 2-6 months.

It's so convenient. Derm problems like hair loss and acne can be super embarrassing to schedule face to face appointments with your doctor about. This eliminates the problem.

Frequently asked questions

Why is finasteride better than Propecia?
Finasteride is the generic form of Propecia. Both medications have the same chemical composition and are equally effective, but finasteride is much less expensive than its brand name predecessor.
Why should I buy finasteride when I could buy other hair growth products online without a prescription?
Finasteride is the only FDA-approved oral treatment available to treat male pattern balding. While we cannot speak on the effectiveness of other treatments for hair loss on the market, we do know that there is significant research to support the efficacy of finasteride.
Will finasteride cause sexual dysfunction or decreased libido?

Long term studies show that less than 2% of men who take finasteride will experience sexual side effects. These sexual side effects may include: decreased interest in sexual intercourse, inability to have or keep an erection, and loss in sexual ability, desire, drive, or performance. If you have any questions about sexual side effects, ask your dermatologist before taking finasteride.

Can I place a one-time order for finasteride?

YoDerm offers a subscription service for finasteride so that you never run out! If finasteride is discontinued, hair will return to how it was before you began treatment. That being said, you have full control. You have the option to pause and restart your subscription or cancel at any time. Message your Care Team on your patient dashboard, or give us a call at (408) 596-3376 (M-F 10AM-6PM PST).
