Shedding on finasteride questions

jimbran · Mar 4, 2016

Hi,

I am curious into how much (on average for most users) finasteride can shed your hair.

Especially those with long/thick hair. Is it common for finasteride to shed these hairs and decrease its overall density?
Does a finasteride shed 'target' specific areas on the scalp?

I'd appreciate any answers with this. Thanks.

Depends your pattern of thinning. Usually shed miniaturized hairs or hairs in the beginning phase. So if your a diffused thinner you might shed more apposed to someone with just thinning on the crown. Really depends on your pattern and how far your hairloss has progressed.
