I would but my concern is that because I have been on finasteride for 20 years, then I could suffer a faster permanent shed. I have read mixed reports of people switching, working ok for 6 months and then thinning rapidly. Did you switch completely from finasteride to dutasteride?

Same brand I have been using for years. Stopped shedding last week to only a few hairs from the front. Then today back to massive sheds with hairs coming out each comb.

Super. Thanks again. I guess you are also dutasteride EOD too? I was thinking I will steadily increase dutasteride to EOD to see how that works and then maybe ease off the finasteride. But yes I am mindful that finasteride could still be working and the shedding could be something else. Will look into RU this weekend.

Thanks for replying. I started dutasteride 5 years ago due to some shedding at the time. Although of course it could just have been seasonal/temporary. Just started back up on Minoxidil and maybe I should give it longer this time. The RU option looks interesting in place of minoxidil but need to do...

Hi. Long time user of finasteride for nearly 20 years. Very gradual receding of hair at the temples over those years. Probably a N2 and now at 48 I have started shedding over the past few weeks: probably around 30-40 hairs a day from the front of my head (although it does coincide with warmer weather)...
