    Well, not sure how much chance I have :(

    Ya you have to have at least 1 visit. Tell them you've been on finasteride for 8 months and want to try something stronger, my dermatologist said she normally doesn't prescribe dutasteride but since finasteride was ineffective she prescribed it and asked me to see her again in 3 months.

    I saw on another thread that you buy dutasteride for only 6$ for 30 pills? How many mg? That's what I need because my pills are costing 22$ a month which is ridiculous. Can you provide a link please?

    Well, not sure how much chance I have :(

    If you haven't seen anything in 8/9 months it is safe to assume it's ineffective, that's what my dermatologist said. If I were you I'd get on dutasteride asap, we don't have much time anyways. Even with dutasteride I'm not holding much hope, anything that inflames your scalp more is bad for regrowing hair so it...

    Well, not sure how much chance I have :(

    Was on 2.5 mg finasteride for about 8 months with nizoral for about 2-3 months. All I did was lose, I tried minoxidil but it irritates my scalp too much and causes too much inflammation. I ran out of finasteride and did nothing for about a month and a half. Currently been on dutasteride .5 mg for 1.5 months, still have...

    Generic name for dutasteride?

    What is cheap version of dutasteride called? Is it called dutasteride or does it go by another name?

    finasteride has failed, dutasteride option

    So I've been on finasteride for 7 1/2 months and I've only lost hair. I tried going back on minoxidil but it just inflamed my scalp more so I stopped. So what is an effective dosage to take and what are the odds of getting sides compared to finasteride? Are they same? Is it safe to assume that if you had no sides...

    For those that used dutasteride or RU, how long were you on finasteride before you switched?

    I thought dutasteride was just a stronger version of finasteride? Don't they do the same thing?

    For those that used dutasteride or RU, how long were you on finasteride before you switched?

    Been on finasteride for 6 1/2 months now, lost hair the entire time. I'm diffuse thinning all over, including my sides. I won't have anything left in 6 months if I continue down this path. When did you abandon finasteride and try more desperate measures? This sucks I was really hopeful this would work but it...

    6 1/2 months, when should I call it quits on finasteride and seek somethign more drastic?

    Like title says I'm at 6 1/2 months and have been shedding the entire time. At this rate if I go another 6 months their will be nothing left to save. What should I do?8O

    Should I listen to my derm's advice?

    All I know is I took minoxidil for 7 months and all I did was lose rapidly. Some people gain but apparently for the majority you need both. Currently almost at 6 1/2 months on finasteride and still losing. I had to stop minoxidil because it inflamed and irritated my scalp. If that happens you shouldn't...

    6 months, 8 days on finasteride

    TBH I think I might have just been imagining it, I'm still losing hair and when I checked again I didn't notice it. It was probably just my light peach fuzz over my whole face. Ughhhh this sucks :freak:

    Does minoxidil on its own make your hair worse

    Yes, it actually accelerated my hair loss.

    6 months, 8 days on finasteride

    Finally I think I might be beginning to see something. Started taking 1.25mg daily, bumped it to 2.5mg, and about 1-2 weeks ago started taking the full 5mg. Also I started using nizoral about a month ago as well. I tried using minoxidil again but it just inflamed and irritated my scalp so I...

    Last time with longish hair... :(

    I feel this is the last time I will have longish hair. Been about 3 months since I had a haircut and I need to get one. The last 2-3 years I've been growing it out because I knew eventually I would lose it and just wanted to feel it to try to keep memories of it and what it felt after it's gone...
