How it works



What causes hair loss?
The primary cause of male-pattern baldness is believed to be genetic and related to hormones, specifically the hormone dihydrotestosterone (DHT). In individuals with a genetic predisposition to this condition, hair follicles in certain areas of the scalp become sensitive to the effects of DHT. Over time, exposure to DHT causes these follicles to shrink and produce thinner and shorter hair until they eventually stop producing hair altogether.

Frequently asked questions
What is Finasteride?
Finasteride 1mg is an oral tablet, prescription medicine that is FDA approved to treat male pattern baldness. At a higher strength of 5mg, Finasteride is FDA approved to treat BPH (Benign prostatic hyperplasia).
How does Finasteride work?
Finasteride lowers levels of DHT, the hormone that causes hair follicles to shrink. By blocking DHT, it helps preserve the hair you have and encourages thicker, healthier regrowth. MyFastRx makes it simple to get started with a licensed provider consultation online and treatment delivered directly to you.
What can I expect with Finasteride treatment?
Most men notice less shedding within 3–6 months, with fuller results after consistent daily use for 6–12 months. The key is staying consistent — and MyFastRx makes that easy by ensuring your medication arrives on time, every time, in discreet packaging.
How should I take Finasteride?
Take one 1 mg tablet by mouth once daily, with or without food. To keep it simple, MyFastRx provides clear instructions with your prescription and makes refills stress-free so you never miss a dose.
What are the possible side effects of Finasteride?
Finasteride is well tolerated by most men. Rare side effects may include lower sex drive or difficulty with erections, but these affect only a small percentage of users and often improve with continued use or after stopping. Our licensed providers will guide you every step of the way to ensure Finasteride is safe for you.
What are the possible side effects of Topical Finasteride?
It is important that women of child-bearing age do not take or handle Finasteride as it may cause birth defects. The most common side effects of Topical Finasteride typically occur on the scalp and may
include:
- Scalp Pruritus
- Burning Sensation
- Irritation
- Contact Dermatitis
- Erythema (redness on the skin)
What should I do if I miss a dose of Finasteride?
Simply take your next dose at the regular time — don’t double up. Missing an occasional pill won’t hurt your results if you stay consistent overall. With MyFastRx’s automatic refills and timely deliveries, it’s easy to stay on track
How should I store Finasteride?
Keep this medication in the original container that you received it in, tightly closed, and out of reach of children. Store it at room temperature and away from excess heat and moisture (not in the bathroom).
What is Minoxidil?
What are the possible side effects of Oral Minoxidil?

Can I use Finasteride and Minoxidil together?
Yes — in fact, many men see the best results by combining the two. Finasteride works to stop hair loss at the source, while Minoxidil stimulates new growth.
