Frequently asked questions
How does the medical review work?
After the health questionnaire, a licensed doctor reviews your information on your hair situation, pre-existing conditions and medications.
- If a therapy is suitable, a prescription is issued
- If there are any questions, the doctor gets in touch with you
- If a therapy is not suitable, you receive a response with the reason
The decision is always made by a person with a medical licence. A prescription is never guaranteed. The review is not a one-time step: it is repeated before each further delivery, so that your therapy remains regularly reviewed by a doctor.
What side effects are possible?
Side effects are possible and depend on the active ingredient and the dosage form. A brief overview:
- Topically applied minoxidil can irritate the scalp, for example with itching, redness or dryness.
- Orally taken active ingredients act throughout the body and can have systemic side effects, for example sexual dysfunction with finasteride.
Which side effects are relevant to your therapy is listed in the package leaflet of the respective medicine. Before a prescription is issued, the doctor checks your information for contraindications. If symptoms occur, discuss them early with your doctor so that the therapy can be adjusted.
How quickly will I see results?
Hair grows slowly, so a therapy takes patience. The first visible changes usually appear after three to six months, and the fuller result often only after about twelve months.
How pronounced the change is varies from person to person and also depends on the starting point. A little patience is important, because a reliable picture only emerges over this period.
What is a follow-up prescription?
A follow-up prescription is the renewed medical approval for your resupply. So that your therapy continues without interruption, the doctor checks again before each further delivery whether the treatment remains suitable for you.
We remind you in good time, so you don't have to keep track of the deadlines yourself. For the follow-up prescription too: the medical review decides, and continuation is not automatically guaranteed.
What happens if the doctor cannot treat me?
If a therapy is not medically suitable, no prescription is issued and you are not charged anything.
You receive a response with the next steps. Depending on the situation, this may be a pointer to an in-person assessment or another route. That way you know where you stand, even if online therapy is not the right choice in your case.
