Buy Finasteride Online
Finasteride 1mg is a prescription-only oral medication used to treat male pattern hair loss (androgenetic alopecia) in men aged 18 and over. It works by blocking the hormone dihydrotestosterone (DHT), which is responsible for shrinking hair follicles and causing hair thinning and baldness. By reducing DHT levels in the scalp, Finasteride helps to slow hair loss and, in some cases, regrow hair.
This medication is not available through the NHS for hair loss treatment but is widely prescribed privately due to its proven clinical effectiveness.
Active Ingredient:
Finasteride 1mg per tablet
What is Finasteride 1mg Used For?
Finasteride 1mg is used for:
- Treating male pattern baldness

How Does Finasteride Work?
Finasteride blocks the conversion of testosterone to dihydrotestosterone (DHT), a hormone linked to hair follicle shrinkage in men with androgenetic alopecia. By lowering DHT levels, Finasteride helps reduce hair loss and maintain healthy hair growth in men genetically predisposed to balding.
