Hey guys!
I took finasteride for 2 weeks 0.25 but i couldn't stay on it because of the sides that kicked in immediately. Belive it or not after just 2 pills I had a huge shed like crazy around 400 hairs per day till now, approximately 3 weeks after i started to take it for the first time. My normal shed rate before the drug 50 to 100. So I am worried alot about the hairs falling. Will it slow down to my normal shed ratio or did it destroyed my hair follicels/receptors permanently?
I am Norwood 2 at 25 years old and have thick blondish hairs with alot of density but after the pills I lost about half of it, just right on top of the head begging at the tempels. I didn't quit because of the shed more for the chest pain, heat feeling, unrested sleep, bloated face, soft body and genital pain. At least I tried it. But health comes first guys.
What are your opinions on my still ongoing shed? Wish everyone the best for your hair and well being! Sam

You're hairs do not fall out that quick, whatever shedding you are experiencing was triggered months before your use of Finasteride. Learn how the hair cycles work and figure out any health changes, stress, medications taken two to three months ago. Did you by change use any hair chemicals like straighteners or dyes?

exactly.. After a trigger, a hair takes at least 2-3 months to fall out. it's a process. read about it.

@ForeverLacey - do you think hair dye can cause immediate hair loss?? breakage or something?

I kept a daily record when starting finasteride 0.04mg. On day 7 i began to shed 100+ hairs (one combing), all of these showed miniaturization and where mostly really whispy zombie hairs. Prior to this i only got 10-20 hairs after a combing. After day 28 the increased shed of damaged hairs returned to normal. I always thought this was due finasteride, did not really change anything else.

@shulk sounds interesting and hopefully i will experience the same. How did you manage to dose in such a little amount? I couldn't get the pills any smaller.
And no way i did something different 3 months ago to experience such a huge shed. It's real! My theory is that my receptors immediately up regulated themselves. Had tingling in my quadriceps, tip of penis and top of head. I didn't experience any loss in erection. The complete opposite rock hard and way more horny. Sperm volume stayed the same though.
