Benefits

What Minoxidil (oral) can do for you.

  • Higher response rate

    Low-dose oral consistently produces meaningfully better hair-count outcomes than topical 5% in head-to-head trials.

  • Once-daily simplicity

    Single small tablet daily; better adherence than twice-daily topical.

  • Stacks with finasteride

    Combination with finasteride is the standard for serious androgenetic alopecia.

How it works

From consult to follow-up.

  1. Initial consultation

    A board-certified physician reviews your symptoms, history, and goals. At many participating clinics the first visit is complimentary.

  2. Baseline labs

    Bloodwork tailored to the protocol. Results come back in days, not weeks. We don't prescribe before we have your numbers.

  3. Personalized protocol

    Your physician calibrates your dose based on your labs and your goals — not a template. Adjustments happen as your data evolves.

  4. Ongoing follow-up

    Recheck visits at six and twelve weeks, then quarterly. Real follow-up, structured into the plan.

Duration
~5 seconds — once-daily oral tablet
Results timeline
Visible thickening typically observed by 3–6 months; full effect by 12 months

Designed around your schedule

  • Consults are short

    Initial visits are typically 45–60 minutes. Many participating clinics waive the fee for new patients.

  • Telehealth follow-ups

    Where state regulations allow, follow-up visits are conducted via telehealth — no extra drive time.

  • Medication shipped

    Prescriptions ship directly from a 503B-licensed pharmacy. No standing in line.

  • Quarterly check-ins

    Structured follow-up at six and twelve weeks, then quarterly. Real medicine, not a one-and-done.

    Clean office, professional staff, and Shawn McGee, NP clearly knows the space. Took about a week to feel the impact of the protocol but I'm tracking everything they asked me to. Worth the drive.

    Solid provider, good bedside manner, and clearly cares about getting the protocol right. Appointment availability could be better but the care quality makes up for it.

    A friend recommended Ascend Modern Wellness after I'd been struggling with low energy for two years. I finally have an actual diagnosis backed by labs, not just guesses. Game-changing.

    Shawn McGee, NP is the real deal. Cared more about my long-term health than my next appointment. Explained the science behind every recommendation. Best men's health doc I've worked with.

    Honest, evidence-based care. Shawn McGee, NP doesn't just hand you a prescription and send you out — there's a real treatment plan with checkpoints. That matters.
