Has anyone else got any opinions or experience on this? (shameless bump!)

That’s the issue though... if it takes 20 days to leave your system and a year to conceive then that’s possibly my hair gone. If it were say a couple of days it could be managed. As for the ‘pussy’ comment, I’m after some sort of evidence that the risk is in the millions to one but can’t find...

15 year plus finasteride user here and (touch wood) I’m a success story so far. Me and the wife want to start a family in the next year or two and I note the warning on the medication to consult a doctor if you want to start a family. I’m hoping the collective minds of this forum can put our minds at...

Mine were for a stomach complaint so unavoidable. I was on 40mg for about two months. Losing 50 hairs from the top of my head whenever I wash, 10 times the usual number :(

Hi gents. Been on finasteride and min for 16 years with great of success (probably 1cm of recession at the temples). However I was on 40mg of prednisolone steroids for two months late last year, and I've just started a shed now. This was for a stomach issue, and different to anabolic. I get...

I'm a long term Inhousepharmacy user and touch would I've retained 95% of my hair since starting on it in 2001. As often though they're out of my `trusted` brands. Has anyone tried their Finpro? It's a fraction of the cost of the Proscar so I`m slightly nervous about it....

Sorry mate, forgive my ignorance here but Proscar and Fincar are both the same thing ie Finasteride. I don't read this forum enough to know if there are any horror stories from moving from one to the other.

Gents Hopefully I'm a good news story on here in that I've been taking Proscar (and minoxidil, although I'm suspicious about what benefits that has) for 15 years and I've basically maintained my hairline during that time. My problem now is that I don't have a prescription and, given that...

Generally during my time on finasteride and minodoxil I have lost 5 hairs in the sink when I wash my hair every 3rd day. I know everyone talks about the replacement ratio being the important thing but I was really happy with that. I had a shed at 2.5 years (losing about 25 hairs when I wash every...

Anyone else :( .....

I hope you're right mate- it's just worrying as no-one ever really seems to mention getting these 2/4/6 yr sheds.

Just lots of people mention their first one but not many mention having ones after that.....

Can any other long-term users explain when their sheds came :(

You're right but I was just trying to wind him up. Football over here is very tribal and people have strong feelings about various clubs. If I'm right in thinking that he's a Hull fan, they have a large violent element, and they're about the 40th best team in a small country.
