Finasteride is primarily used to treat male pattern hair loss (androgenetic alopecia). For hair loss, it helps reduce the hormone DHT, which causes hair follicles to shrink.

Finasteride usually takes 3 to 6 months to show visible improvement in hair growth. In some cases, people may experience temporary shedding at the start, which is normal and indicates that the hair growth cycle is being reset.
