mensRxplus offering for Hair Growth
mensRxplus helps you find the lowest possible price on Finasteride, the only FDA approved oral medication for hair growth.
What causes thinning hair and male pattern balding?
Male Pattern Baldness:
- Most common type of hair loss in men
- Caused by genetics and hormonal changes
- Typically shows as receding hairline and thinning on crown
- Not a medical concern, but some men choose to treat it for self-esteem
How it happens:
- Hair follicles shrink over time
- Results in shorter, finer hair
- Eventually, no new hair grows
- Follicles remain alive, suggesting potential for regrowth
Treatment is optional and based on personal preference. There are options available for those who want to address hair loss.
How does Finasteride work to reverse hair loss?
Finasteride is the only FDA approved medication for Male Pattern Baldness:
- Effective for hormone-related hair loss (most common type)
- Not for balding due to other conditions (e.g., immune disorders, vitamin deficiencies)
How it works:
- Reduces conversion of testosterone to dihydrotestosterone (DHT)
- Too much DHT can damage and shrink hair follicles
- Finasteride blocks DHT production, allowing follicles to grow
Results:
- Minimum 3 months to see initial effects
- Recommended 12-month trial to determine effectiveness
Finasteride offers a targeted approach to combat hormone-related male pattern baldness by addressing the root cause of hair follicle damage.

Frequently Asked Questions
Yes. A prescription is needed for finasteride, which is the only FDA approved oral medication for hair growth. In the US a prescription can only be given by a board certified medical provider, which is why mensRxplus requires a telehealth visit to prescribe. This also ensures quality generic medication.
You can take both! Minoxidil is available in foams and shampoos in the US without a prescription and can be found in any US pharmacy, big box store, or on amazon (example Rogain 5% minoxidil foam, or the Kirkland brand found at Costco). There is no need for a prescription. Minoxidil also takes months to work. Minoxidil and Finasteride work differently, and can be synergistic to your hair growth.
