Hair loss is treatable — earlier is better.
Provider-directed treatment for men and women, matched to what is actually happening. Hair loss is one of the few things people are told to simply accept. You do not have to — and the earlier a provider looks at it, the more there is to work with. The right treatment depends on the pattern, the cause, and your health history, which is exactly what a licensed provider evaluates before anything is prescribed.
What a provider may consider
Topical finasteride plus minoxidil. A compounded foam combining finasteride and minoxidil in one daily application. Finasteride reduces DHT, the hormone byproduct that miniaturizes follicles; minoxidil supports the growth phase. Compounded topicals are prepared by a licensed pharmacy.
Oral options. Oral finasteride, dutasteride, or low-dose minoxidil are established approaches a provider may consider depending on your pattern and goals.
Women's pattern hair loss. Female pattern hair loss is different from men's and is treated differently — often a compounded topical combining minoxidil with other actives, matched to the cause a provider identifies.
Find the cause first. Thyroid, iron, and hormones can all drive shedding. Our lab panels let a provider check what is underneath rather than treating blindly.
Safety
Finasteride can cause sexual side effects in some people and is not for use by women who are or may become pregnant. A licensed provider reviews your history and the risks before any treatment is prescribed, and you can stop at any time.
Common questions
Does it work for women too?
Yes — women's pattern hair loss is treated with its own protocols, not the men's approach. A provider matches treatment to the cause and your health history.
What are the side effects of finasteride?
Finasteride can cause sexual side effects in some people, and it must not be used by women who are or may become pregnant. Your provider reviews the risks with you before prescribing, and you can stop at any time.
How soon will I see a difference?
Hair treatment works gradually and individual results vary. A provider will set realistic expectations for your situation — we do not promise a timeline or a specific result.
Do I need insurance?
No. Medivive is self-pay with transparent, all-in pricing and no membership fee. Your exact price is shown before you start.
