No progress whatsoever. I ditched the topical finasteride and my shedding seems to have stabilized. Hair is still sh*t. Hoping the minoxidil will recover some of what i lost. But my hair is so thin and diffused now, that I might as well shave it all off. Waiting for topical androgen to arrive...

Please update. I've been on finasteride for 4 months and it has sped up my male pattern baldness significantly. All hair has gotten thinner... Top is see through now. And retrograde alopecia has started in my neck and around the ears...

Visit to my derm was pointless. Wasn't aware of the existence of topical finasteride, nor of the adverse workings of finasteride in general. Young dude, perhaps a few years older than me, had just graduated.. Told me to continue with minoxidil. To be honest, I'm at rock bottom at this stage. I can say for sure...

To be honest, I think I do have a problem, seeing and feeling how my hair quality had dropped since the finasteride. Anyways, I have an appointment with my derm coming up this week. Only thing is he doesn't know I started finasteride on my own..

Fair enough. I see your point that this is not an unbiased place. I only ended up here after looking for 'symptoms' I experienced when I suddenly realized my hair getting worse. Perhaps you are somewhat right about seeing some thinning in the picture from early November. I'd like to mention...

Thanks for your reply. I did notice the temple growing in a bit, but that was started by the minoxidil. Don't you think the hairs above the temples have gotten much thinner? Closer to the root, they basically show no pigment anymore.. What do you think of the texture/quality difference in the first...

I posted like two threads here (with pictures), feel free to check them out under my profile.

No spamming intended. Posting simply because I'd prefer to make the right decision at this stage. Agreed, no one can predict, but I hope to base my decision on other users their experiences and their potential updates. I'm simply trying to benefit from and contribute to information exchange...

Was having increased ejaculatory volume combined with a spike in libido, more than a week ago. At the same time, my hair was shedding very quickly and I realized how thin my hairs have become in just 4 months of using finasteride. Balls started feeling sore as well. So, I quit immediatelly and...

My hair got way worse after starting topical finasteride (Essengen-F). It thinned rapidly in just 4 month, all over the scalp.
