Description
While hair loss is an extremely common issue, cultures across the world still associate it with aging and look upon it as a problem to be solved.1 Fortunately for men and women dealing with hair loss, treatments have come a long way in the past few decades, and accessing those treatments is easier than ever.
Hims has been a pioneer in expanding that access via telemedicine, initially offering oral finasteride and topical minoxidil but eventually expanding to a range of prescription and non-prescription interventions that boast significant scientific support.
Hims also offers numerous other products and services, including erectile dysfunction treatment, skin care, and even some mental health support. Our team has been reporting on Hims for years, and this review aims to spotlight the company’s hair loss offerings and compare them to your other options.
