Hi longtime lurker first time poster...

[EpidermisShowing]

Hi wondering if anyone could give me some advice,

Been taking Propecia for 6 months, first couple of months didn't notice anything then had shed at 4 months which lasts probably 1 month, then about 3 weeks ago i started noticing some thickening up and i stopped shedding. However this last week i have been shedding again and i seem to have taken a few steps back. The hair i seem to be losing is shorter hair which would imply to me the hair that had grown as have had not had it cut in a while. Funnily enough i have some regrowth on my temples, nothing to get excited about but its there is lots of little hairs (shame i was takin if for my vertex )

No freakin out or claiming it doesn't work, masturbation made my cats hair fall out, brain fog etc...

Just wondering if anyone has had similar experiences and is this a sign that it is working or otherwise i'll be buzzing it a lot sooner than i thought.


Thanks in advance for anyone that takes time to comment

It's just a shed and is something you are going to have to get used to. By the sounds of it though, it looks as if you are a responder. I've been on it for 2 1/2 years and still get into phases where I look better or worse than other times although overall I have improved.

Thanks for replying, can i ask in your case did it get worse before it got better.


Thanks again

You should keep at it for a year, don't count hairs, it will drive you insane.

Glad the cat is OK

Yeah it got worse. Like I said, I went through phases, so in the beginning sometimes I looked worse and sometimes I looked like nothing was happening.

When you have heavy shedding, can't you just cut your hair short ? That's what I been thinking..
