Hair loss for men can be a very distressing experience. However, hair loss does not necessarily have to be anything to worry about and can be temporary. Male pattern hair loss (MPHL) is the most common type of hair loss experienced by men. It is also called androgenetic alopecia. There are now online treatments available with some types of hair loss.

Hair loss and its treatment Sometimes, a person will lose hair because of illness, anxiety, stress, cancer, iron deficiency or weight loss. Some types of hair loss can run in the family. Whatever the reason, it can be upsetting. However, if it’s due to MPHL then you do not need to suffer in silence, and live with noticeable hair loss. (1, 6) Half of all men experience male-patterned baldness. The most common kind of hair loss in men starts around the age of thirty, with a receding hairline and hair thinning on the temples and crown. (6) You can now buy home hair loss medication online. Webmed Pharmacy is a registered online UK pharmacy where you can buy medication for men. Treatment is in the form of drugs called Finasteride or Propecia. Finasteride is the generic version of Propecia, but it is equally effective and much cheaper. The General Pharmaceutical Council regulates Webmed Pharmacy. (2, 3, 4) Finasteride is a very effective treatment for hair loss and it can prevent further hair loss and increase hair growth. It can take 3 to 6 months for the full effect to develop and it is important to continue taking the medication. If you stop taking hair loss medication, you are likely to lose the hair you have gained, within 9-12 months. (4, 5)
Some men who take the above drugs can experience side effects such as loss of sex drive, infertility, increased heart rate, a rash or swollen breasts. (2, 3, 4) In the UK, a prescription is needed to buy hair loss medication for men. Customers will need to fill out an online medical consultation questionnaire. This is then assessed by one of WebMD’s doctors, who will issue a prescription if there are no medical reasons not to. Should you then decide to buy your hair loss medication for men from Webmed Pharmacy, it will be delivered to your door or an agreed pick-up point, the next working day. You will be offered a 1-hour time slot and your medication will be packaged discreetly. Webmed Pharmacy also sells other types of hair loss treatments online including shampoos and conditioners specifically manufactured to help treat hair loss in men. These can be used in tandem with hair loss medication for men.
