FAQs
How do Sons Hair Loss Tablets work?
Testosterone is present in all men and is converted into dihydrotestosterone (DHT). DHT can cause hair follicles to shrink which leads to hair strands being cut off from the nutrients in your blood and eventually falling out of the scalp.
Our Hair Loss Tablets act as a shield, blocking testosterone from being transformed into DHT. It actively protects your scalp from the damage caused by DHT so that hair loss can be halted, and hair follicles can reach their growth potential again.
Are Hair Loss Tablets safe?
As with all medications, there is always a small risk of side effects. These medications are approved and licensed however by the licensing authority - MHRA, which means they are considered safe and effective for their intended use. The Hair Loss Tablets are well studied, having been available since the 1990s to treat hair loss and benign prostatic hypertrophy. The Hair Loss Tablets’ side effect profile is very favourable, with up to 4% of people reporting possible related side effects. These side effects tend to happen in the first six months of taking the medication and the vast majority resolve on cessation of the hair loss tablets.
