6 month 22 day update

Sheds: I know that's what everyone wants to know about, but I don't keep track. Overall my hairloss is only a little worse than it was before treatment.

Side Effects: I had the typical see saw effect on libido and other sexual matters, but only in the first month and never disruptively.

Comments: Currently I've noticed more fall out because of a worsening of my dermatitis on my scalp, especially at the temples just behind the hairline. This is probably just due to the New England winter, as it's effecting my entire scalp (back and sides too). The worse it itches, the more hair I comb/shampoo out. My goal is maintenance, so I'm not upset that I haven't regrown any hair. Perhaps at the 12 month mark I will have. I haven't been updating because the process is so slow, and I don't keep track as closely as some of you guys. If I paid that much attention to my shitty hair I'd go crazy.... seriously. I posted this to let people who browse and are considering treating to hair loss to see another case of finasteride not causing any sexual or noticible shedding problems.

Also, thanks to all on the board who have help me out in the past.

Nice feedback, I went through a "fall shed" in November, and I've been considering starting on finasteride (prob .5mg to start) to keep the hair I have now. Slight receeding on the temples, not bad at all, just don't want it to get worse. Some have asked why .5 mg,.....just because I'd like to ease into it and see the side effects and maybe up to 1 mg after 6 months or so if necessary.

Thanks Again....
