About Felix Health
Felix is a Canadian digital health platform trusted by over 1.5 million patients across Canada. Care is delivered entirely online: you complete an assessment, a Canadian-licensed practitioner reviews it and builds a treatment plan around your individual needs, and any prescribed treatment is delivered free to your door in discreet packaging.
For hair loss, Felix offers "clinically-proven hair loss solutions": you get a treatment plan complete with custom treatments for your specific needs, guided by Canadian-licensed practitioners, fully online with unlimited follow-ups, and free, discreet delivery to your door for all treatment options.
Felix frames this as treatment that gets to the root of hair loss — clinically-proven, practitioner-guided care fully online, with access to a range of options that can help stop hair loss and even regrow it, and free delivery to your door in discreet packaging for both prescription and non-prescription treatment.
Pattern hair loss is a good match for this model for two reasons. It is diagnosed visually and historically, which photographs handle adequately. And it is adherence-critical: a missed month is a real setback, so automatic delivery matters more here than in most categories.
Felix serves nine of the ten provinces. It does not currently serve Quebec, which is regulated separately through the Collège des médecins du Québec — Quebec residents should look at MyRocky instead.

Who It's For
A good fit if…
- • You have pattern hair loss and want to start first-line treatment
- • You value automatic delivery, because adherence is what drives results here
- • You want unlimited follow-ups rather than a single prescription
- • You want both prescription and non-prescription options on one plan
Look elsewhere if…
- • Your hair loss is patchy, circular, or accompanied by scalp inflammation or scarring — that needs in-person assessment
- • You are a woman who is or may become pregnant — finasteride is contraindicated
- • You live in Quebec
- • You are not prepared for ongoing treatment — gains reverse within about a year of stopping

Editorial Verdict
The comparison that decides this is not Felix against another clinic — it is prescription finasteride against over-the-counter minoxidil, and they are not substitutes. Minoxidil is topical and available without a prescription; finasteride is oral and is not. If you need the second, you need a prescriber, and that is the entire case for a platform here.
On that basis Felix wins against the shelf and ties against any other Canadian platform that can prescribe finasteride, because the molecule and the evidence are the same wherever the prescription comes from. What separates platforms is continuity — whether anyone follows up at three and six months, when the evidence says you find out if it is working.
Our call: use Felix if finasteride is part of the plan and you want the follow-up structured rather than self-managed. If minoxidil alone is the plan, a pharmacy is cheaper and no comparison is needed.
