Even if If is actually Finasteride, they have still found a way to provide a medical therapy (Fin & Minoxidil) at a much higher cost than getting it through your physician. Minoxidil 5% can be purchased on Amazon for $30-$35 dollars for a 6 month supply. Finasteride is the same way... mine is the generic brand and I get it through Costco. A year supply is $87 dollars.
Hims charges per month for 30 day supply or Fin. 2oz bottle of Minoxidil. Vitamin (biotin) and a DHT shampoo that they have no information on how it stops/blocks/reduces DHT.... from my understanding it’s just a volume shampoo to make your hair appear thicker.
To the average Joe who doesn’t know much about what works and doesn’t work when it comes to hairloss, it’s just a over priced product, marketed for the uneducated consumers.
You can buy 10000 mcg Biotin at Walmart for $5.94. Hims Biotin is 5000 mcg and they are selling it for $14 dollars per bottle... rip off. There is nothing wrong with taking biotin but people need to understand that realistically, it will be of enough benefit to see actually results or regrowth for someone with a genetic pattern.
Bill, I agree, I hope all medications are legit and it would be nice for the company to offer more information to clarify.
