It's not just you
The sooner you start, the more you keep.
Officially known as androgenetic alopecia, male-pattern hair loss is the most common type. Hormonal, hereditary and progressive, you'll continue to lose hair if left untreated. Take action and it can be slowed, halted or (in some cases) partially reversed.

Treatment
One evidence-led option, reviewed against your assessment and prescribed only when a clinician decides it's right for you.
Finasteride
1 mg daily · the standard prescription
Finasteride treats male-pattern hair loss by reducing the hormone dihydrotestosterone (DHT) that causes the follicles to thin. Taken daily, it slows or halts further loss, and (in some cases) encourages new growth.
- Targets the hormone DHT, which drives male-pattern hair loss
- 1 mg daily tablet, taken consistently
- You should start to see change around 3–6 months

The science
How Finasteride protects your hair.
Male-pattern hair loss is caused by a hormone, not bad luck. Here's how.
What to expect
Real change takes time.
Be consistent, stick with it and here's what the first year looks like.
Getting started
You take your daily tablet and the routine settles in. There's nothing to see yet, but this stage is all about consistency, which is the single biggest predictor of results.
How hair-loss treatment works
Patience, and staying the course.
Starting a course of hair-loss treatment is a commitment. You'll be guided by your clinician. Consistency and patience do the rest.
Timing
Starting early gives the medication the best conditions to work. If you're further down the line, it will still do its job. There's just more ground to cover.
Consistency
Finasteride is a daily medication. Using the prescribed dose every day will give you the best outcome. The men who see the most benefit are those who build it into their routine.
Patience
The medication gets to work before you'll notice it. Visible change typically happens around 3–6 months. That's not a long time for a medication that can hold onto years of hair.

He didn't wait. Curate prescribed.
I kept telling myself it wasn't that bad. The assessment was straightforward, the plan was clear, and so far I'm glad I started. Wish I'd done it sooner.
Daniel R.
No nonsense, no miracle promises. They were upfront that real change takes a few months. The honesty is what sold me.
Marcus L.
A real clinician actually reviewed everything and explained the side effects properly rather than glossing over them. Felt like proper care.

Advice & guides
Knowledge that keeps you going.
Hair Loss
Does testosterone cause hair loss?
The idea that high testosterone means baldness is a myth. Male pattern hair loss comes from how sensitive your follicles are to a hormone called DHT, not from how much testosterone you have.
Hair Loss
What causes hair loss in women?
Female hair loss has a different cause list from men's: pattern thinning, telogen effluvium, iron and thyroid problems, hormones and haircare damage. How to tell them apart.
Hair Loss
How long does finasteride take to work?
Finasteride lowers the hormone driving hair loss within days, but visible results run on hair's slow cycle: stabilisation by month six, the full verdict at a year or more.

Does it actually work?
For most eligible men, yes, but it protects existing hair more reliably than it regrows lost hair, and results take three to six months. A clinician will tell you what's realistic for your stage of hair loss.
What about side effects?
Most men tolerate finasteride well. A small number report sexual side effects, which are usually reversible on stopping (SmPC). Your clinician reviews your history and explains the risks before prescribing, and you can raise anything any time.
How long until I see results?
Typically three to six months of consistent use, sometimes longer. You may notice some shedding early on as the cycle resets. That's normal, and your clinician will guide you through it.
What happens if I stop?
The hair these treatments protect will gradually return to its previous course over the following months. That's why we treat it as an ongoing plan, and your clinician will advise on stopping safely.
Is the medication genuine?
Yes. All treatment is genuine, regulated medication dispensed by a GPhC-registered pharmacy. Eligibility and suitability are decided by a UK-registered clinician.
