Can a doctor prescribe Topical spironolactone?

[helpmyhair]

Since I don't currently have a credit card and may not get one until sometime in the summer, it is hard for me to order products online unless Paypal is accepted and since it isn't for pretty much every hair loss site, my question is...

Can a doctor prescribe you topical spironolactone if you ask for it in regards to hairloss? If so, is topical spironolactone readily available at local pharmacies? I live in toronto, so there are many big pharmacies around here.

Possibly, as I think it normally requires a prescription (But usually done over net) but I doubt many docs will know what it is.

Get a 'pay as you go' mastercard. That's what I do.

I'm not 100% sure, but I don't think a doctor is allowed to prescribe an "experimental" hairloss treatment.

As far as I know oral spironolactone is an approved medicine for women but not for men.

If you from US, go to account.com and you will be able to get visa or mastercard.
