| Frage | Kernpunkt |
|---|---|
| What is it for? | Finasteride 1 mg is authorised for early androgenetic alopecia in men; it is not a general treatment for every type of hair loss. |
| When might change be noticed? | Stabilisation may take three to six months. Progress should be judged over months, not days. |
| Does benefit continue after stopping? | The benefit generally recedes after treatment is stopped, so ongoing treatment and review may be needed. |
| What must be discussed? | Mood changes, sexual adverse effects, fertility concerns, other medicines and any uncertainty about the diagnosis. |
