finasteride stopped working

[snafu]

I just noticed in the last 2-3 weeks that my hair loss has started again. I started on Finasteride once a day with 5% rogain twice a day about 5 months ago. At first I had the shedding that everyone talked about but when it finally stopped I had no hair loss at all. I used Nizoral for the scalp itch/flakes.
Now I have no itch/flakes on my scalp but in the shower and afterwards I noticed that I am losing my hair again. The Finasteride tablets are 1mg each, has my body somehow gotten used to the dosage ? What could have made this change ? And most important of all how can I stop the hair loss again ?

Relax. Your still on the 12 month "Does Propecia Work? Umbrella. Your probably shedding again. Keep using your treatments. All will be well.

I even go through shed phases 1.5 years after starting propecia. Now, with that said...it always looks worse to you...but others don't notice because the hairs are replaced with healthier hair that shouldn't be affected by DHT.

Thanks, I am of course going to keep on the treatment. I was just panicking that it might have stopped working somehow. Hopefully this will stop in the next few weeks.

Yes, I am in the exact same situation as you.

5 months on the "BIG THREE" and losing hair again.

Let's ride it out.
