Hi All, just an update thankfully I am now pretty much back to where I was before I took a break! I'm also back to dosage size of 1mg 4x a week

@20YearsOnFin I am curious why you said 2 years? is this from personal experience or just a random guess?

@Moz5x haha thanks buddy I will keep you posted!

@Moz5x Don't worry I think this new omicron strain will become the dominant one now.. and replace Delta... and from what I can see it is much milder than Alpha and Delta.. so hopefully the virus is petering out. For what it's worth I had 2 bad days (fevers, headaches, muscle ache etc) Keep your...

@20YearsOnFin thanks for the input and yes I was a good responder on finasteride, even only taking it 3-4 times a week. Hopefully it will come back.. And I really hope it wont take 2 years! lol....

and @Moz5x I agree.. I am open to it, the covid may well have had an effect.. when I went to have a haircut when I was shedding, and told my barber I was losing hair, the first thing he asked was if I'd had covid recently.. so I think it is happening to quite a lot of people who get covid

@Moz5x but the study you quoted referenced 92% of the research group were female.. do you think Covid related Telogen effluvium is really a thing in men? From what I am reading online it's something that tends to affect women mostly

I would actually prefer it be telogen affluvium triggered from the Covid infection.. as then I would be sure it was temporary!

Thanks for the response @infamousrodi So in your opinion I can get it back to where I was before the break?

Hi guys, I wanted to see if anyone ever had a similar situation or any suggestions.. I had been taking 1mg (3-4 times a week) until this summer, June, when I had a break from finasteride, I was abroad and forgot my finasteride. I stopped for about 4 weeks.. until beginning of July, then when I...
