    Suddenly thinning very fast whilst 11 years of finasteride and 12 years on min

    Yeah I'm pretty sure loss off morning wood is a very understated side of finasteride and it is definitely not healthy. For me it slowly crept up over they years to the point where they are now non existent. I am just hoping more significant sides don't creep in, hence why i will never consider...

    Suddenly thinning very fast whilst 11 years of finasteride and 12 years on min

    Over time on Finasteride my morning wood eventually disappeared and as @losingbattle88 has put it I do not want to risk more severe sides with Dutasteride. I can tolerate the mild sides with finasteride but I don't think its healthy nuking your DHT. finasteride & minoxidil gave me the years of perfect hair I...

    Have you been tracking your hair loss with photos? If it truly is a stark difference when comparing photos say from 1/2years ago with your current hair situation then maybe you are right and finasteride is no longer sufficient to fend off the natural progression of your hair loss. Maybe add...

    Suddenly thinning very fast whilst 11 years of finasteride and 12 years on min

    I've been on the same treatments for a similar duration as you, and for me, my hair was at its thickest around 2-3 years in. Unfortunately, since then, I’ve gone through periodic heavy sheds, and my hair has become noticeably thinner and receded a bit. Each time, it bounces back to a new...

    My 4-yearly visit to check on latest updates

    It’s been a while since I last logged into the forum, but it’s good to see we’re still only 5 years away from a cure. I was starting to worry we might’ve finally come to our senses and pushed it back to 10! On a serious note, I started treating my hair loss back in 2014 with finasteride and...

    are split finasteride pills safe to handle?

    Cutting and handling them should be avoided if your are trying to conceive/ Your partner is pregnant. In any other situation I think its fine.

    My 11 years on finasteride

    Thanks for sharing your story mate and sorry to hear about your accident, that must of been tough to deal with. Yes I wouldn't be surprised if finasteride has something to do with the symptoms you have been experiencing, after all being on an hormone altering medication for 11 years is likely...

    Worst hair out of all my friends!

    Your hair is fine mate, you've got temple recession but it doesn't look bad. Just start proper treatments and you'll hold onto that hair for the years to come. FYI you're not going to get very far rubbing castor oil everyday.

    Very Impressive Dermarolling And Minxodil Results - From Tressless

    So I have been micro needling for 3 years now, initially I experienced some regrowth but that tailed of pretty soon after starting. However, I do believe that it had played an important role in maintaining my hair/keeping it healthy, hence my reason for keeping it up. My routine had been...

    Finastride+Minoxidil worked for 1.5 years, but have reversed to baseline in last two weeks

    Your hair cycle tends to get synchronised when on treatments with all hairs shedding at the same time/ growing. I still have shedding phases and varying hair quality throughout the year. On the other hand 1.5years sounds about the time when minoxidil results tend to tail off. Same thing...

    1mg finasteride journey

    Looks fine, you're on treatments now so no need to take and post progress pictures everyday as there wont be any significant changes. Every 3-6months is when you should take and compare/post progress pictures.
