Understanding Male Hair Loss
Most men experience some degree of hair loss as they age. The most common cause is male pattern baldness, also known as androgenetic alopecia. It usually starts with a receding hairline or thinning at the crown and can progress gradually over time.
Hair loss can also be caused by stress, medical conditions, or certain treatments, but rest assured, many options are available to help manage it.
NHS-Approved Hair Loss Remedies for Men
We only recommend safe and evidence-based hair loss treatment for men. From many, two main options are available and approved by the NHS:
1. Minoxidil (Regaine®)
A topical treatment you apply directly to your scalp. It helps to slow hair loss and may promote regrowth.
2. Finasteride (Propecia®)
A private prescription tablet that can prevent further hair loss and may help regrow hair. It works best when taken continuously and over time.
Our pharmacists can explain how these options work, what to expect, and how to get started.
