Male pattern baldness is a chronically progressive condition and what begins as minor hair thinning in one's early 20's can progress to typical male pattern baldness within a relatively short time. Prescription strength Minoxidil alone or along with systemic Propecia or Avodart can result in hair re-growth but works best and most dramatically in STOPPING further hair thinning.  Since hair grows very slowly, it takes approximately 3 months to start to notice the effectiveness of the drug treatment. 

If our physicians approve your medical evaluation, you will be issued a prescription for a customized, compounded Minoxidil formulation with 6 additional refills (with no further consultation fees). If Minoxidil is working for you, you can request a follow-up online medical consultation and if approved will be issued  a prescription refillable for up to 12  months.

Male pattern baldness is a life-long condition.  Regardless of the dramatic effects you may experience from prescription treatment, you must continue to use this medication regularly.  If you stop the treatment your genetic predisposition to baldness will result in eventual loss of the new hair re-growth and progression of further hair loss.

The initial consultation fee for the physician evaluation is only $49.95 plus processing if you are approved for treatment, otherwise it's free. If you find Minoxidil is working for you, yearly medical refill consultations are only  $75.00 plus processing for one year of refills.  Medical Wellness Center's Online Minoxidil Rx Consultation makes it easy for you to safely and effectively treat male pattern baldness from the convenience and privacy of your PC without  time-consuming and costly doctor visits.
