hims Review

hims is a company that wholeheartedly embraces men and their personal health and wellness, and encourages them to come to terms with personal health issues that are hard to talk about, like hair loss and erectile dysfunction.

The Gist

hims is a company that’s completely dedicated to men and their personal health and wellness. They welcome conversation related to hard-to-talk-about topics, which have for the most part been closeted – like hair loss, sex, and acne. They embrace the idea that men should want to take care of themselves, feel comfortable about talking about it, and take the necessary steps to fix it. Choose what area you need help in, and hims will provide a comprehensive solution for it. Fill out a quick, simple assessment and a hims doctor will reach out with a recommended treatment plan within minutes. The hair loss treatments they prescribe are safe, effective, and FDA approved. The products are developed by medical professionals and experts and are proven to be effective in preventing hair loss and promoting hair regrowth. Whether it be gummies, vitamins, topical solutions or shampoo, hims has got you (and your hair loss) covered.
