    20 Year old Finasteride story - finally biting the bullet. [Progress Thread]

    Been on just finasteride for a year since downgrading from dutasteride. I've now been on finasteride for a total of 7+ years. As you can see the results are almost the same. My hair density is about the same as 7 years ago which is fantastic really. I should be fully bald by now. As such if people are browsing...

    Update. Been on finasteride/dutasteride for 6 years now. I switched from finasteride to dutasteride maybe 2-3 years ago. It's achieved its purpose of allowing me to maintain a hairstyle. My hairloss doesn't really look any worse than when I started at age 20. I'd 100% be fully bald by now had I not...

    Ok so just a little update, not putting an image on the front page because there's not a significant difference It's been 8 months so far. It seems I havn't really receded any further as far as I am aware which is great, the receding itch is still very minimal compared to before I started...

    21 y/o need some help

    Hey man, I'm currently more receded than you - about a norwood 3 at 20 years old. I started finasteride 7 months ago and since then the dreadful itch where my receding hairline is has subsided by about 90%. Before starting finasteride I would be constantly thinking about the itch as it was a...

    Strange experience with the Doctor in the UK

    When I was 18 I went to the local GP to try and get finasteride prescribed, he was extremely cold and pretty much shouted me out of the room for asking for drugs to try and solve an 'aesthetic issue' as balding doesn't provide any medical negatives. I pretty much spent 2 years convincing myself...

    month 5 up - it looks slightly better but honestly it could just be angling and whether there is any product in my hair with that being said - the itch has all but gone and my hairline doesn't itch anymore so it's definitely doing something Some peach fuzz is started to grow but right now it's...

    Approaching month 3 so added a pic, considering adding minoxidil soon to see if thatll help a bit. Theres an extremely small difference but its neglible really, it's not cosmetically significant. I'm hoping to regrow enough so that my recession isnt painfully obvious when It's styled

    2 weeks in - feeling some definite aches in my left and right pecs, when I lift my arms up and feel around the nipple I can feel a smallish lump at the very top of the areola.. kinda cylindrical in shape does this mean Im gunna grow man-tits? Should I stop? Should I ride it out?
