btp So you didn't see any improvement until 10 months in? Wow, you have some incredible patience. Did you experience tremendous shedding in the first 2 months? Right now, my head is super itchy, much more than before I started Propecia, did you ever suffer from any itchy head? I am using...

help btp I, like you in the beginning, am experiencing extreme shedding. I am panicking like you might have. I am 29 years old and had been losing hair difusely (long term pattern - 5) over the past 6 - 8 years or so. Little by little I would think that my coverage was about 60% 8 weeks ago...
