One dose will not give you side effects, it's likely in your head. Same thing happened to me, spent the first night shivering and feeling terrified but it was all in my head. If finasteride gives you side effects it will typically come in 2-3 weeks into taking it, but even then it's rare or minor...

Thanks, the back of my head is fine, and so is the other side (mostly). How do I fix this? I'm already on finasteride for 5 months.

It's patchy: Is this a symptom of Androgenetic Alopecia?

Yes, use a knife. Cut it into half first, then cut the halves in half again.

My hair is similar to yours. I started 0.25mg finasteride over a month ago, abandon the 0.5mg. I was worried as well for sides and had the pills sitting there for a week before I took it, but so far nothing. Hair has gotten thicker for sure and definitely good results. I strongly recommend it. It seems...

finasteride and minoxodil could probably still help him, a year from now on those two he should see noticeable improvement, obviously not Norwood 1, but better than this.

I've been on 0.25mg for just over a month. Late 20s. I've noticed over the last week or two that the hair I already have has gotten much thicker and darker than I ever remember it (last few years), however the crown thinning is still there (hasn't gotten worse, about the same). Hoping for some...

To the average onlooker you would look fine. Stick with finasteride and don't worry about it.

Looks like early stages, monitor for the next few months and if you notice even slightly worse, get on finasteride.

Your hair looks perfectly fine, you are stressing over nothing.

Yeah minoxodil was your first mistake. A lot of people start with minoxidil, which doesn't get to the root of the problem, which is DHT attacking your follicles. People see hair regrowth on minoxidil and think problem solved, but eventually the follicles will die from the DHT if untreated and...

Your hair didn't magically go from full head to that in one day, I'm asking how long did it take not how long it's been like that.

How long from when you first started noticing loss did it take to get to this point?

Will finasteride help :(

My hairline is pretty solid, when I pull the hair back it is difficult to detect any horseshoe temple recession. It's just the density of my hair is oddly distributed. I'm not denying a problem and I've been taking finasteride to address it, but it's been hard monitoring, since I can't predict the...
