After 1 month on minoxidil I had not noticed any shedding on my right temple (the only place where the recession has occurred, sitting at about a norwood 1.5-2). Within the last week (So roughly 3 weeks after beginning finasteride 1mg daily) I have noticed intense shedding on the right temple. Now when applying the foam morning and evening, I could count at least 20 hairs falling each time.
It's a bit disconcerting seeing the whole area thin considerably, but I can only assume that this is a great sign that I might just get that nice juvenile hairline back.
I'll post some pictures in about a month or so, and put them side by side with some before photos. Who knows, maybe I'll be a success story of temple regrowth.
*ALSO* no side effects encountered thus far (touch wood). In fact, (and i'm sure it's not related to finasteride) my "wood" seems to be functioning better than ever.
