You and I are in the same boat; we both caught our hair loss early. Stay on the drug if you aren't have sides. You'll thank yourself later.

I've been on finasteride for over 5 years. Currently in the best shape of my life; I was able to drop 30 lbs and start putting on some muscle mass over the last couple of months while being on the drug. Like others have said, really make sure you are watching what you eat (e.g., keep a food...

Hello, first time posting on here in a long time. Backstory about me: I had very early hair loss and hopped on 1.25 mg of finasteride right away over 5 years ago. Since then, my hair has more or less stayed the same with some thickening. Recently, I have started to get into lifting weights...

Hair looks great. I would drop minoxidil as you don't really have anything to regrow.

Great results, I hope I can maintain as long as you.

Based on those pictures I don't see any signs of thinning, you look like you just have fine hair (same as mine). How does your hair line look?

If you would have just posted the first picture I would say you were fine but the second picture shows the start of some thinning.

You're like a Norwood 2. Give finasteride a shot first; it's easier to get and a lot cheaper.

I wonder this too, most dudes who have "success" on RU seem to be on either finasteride or dutasteride as well. Could have very well have been rubbing baking soda on his head for the last decade.

I cut 5 mg pills into 4ths so 1.25 mg. If I lost ground I think I would add in minoxidil and if I was still losing I would switch to dutasteride and start planning a hair transplant. I don't think I would ever dabble with the experimentals (e.g., RU, CB, etc.) as the research on humans is questionable...

There is a fair amount of hair loss in my family and I was losing crazy amounts of hair.

There are post on here and other forums where dudes who maintained for well over 8+ years. I'm going on 4 years myself and my hair has maintained.

I used to lurk this thread when I first started posting here, glad to see that your hair has held up well after all of these years! I'm not doubting that you have hair loss, but I think you definitely thought it was "worse" than it really was. I was/am the same way.
