    finasteride and brain fog - a frequent issue?

    So, you say it doeas make sense to take some preg as a supplement while on finasteride? I've googled through a couple of pages, they do mention hair loss as a side effect from prolonged preg use. Personally, it would be great to take some low dose of preg to inhibit all that allopregnonolone-related...

    Ten Year Finasteride Study..

    Sounds interesting. Could you, or anybody else with some degree of "neurological" knowledge, tell if it could be possible to offset the finasteride-related neurological damage by some other medicine, let's say nootropic ones? I mean, I wonder if there is already such a treatment somewhere on the market...

    Re: 20 yrs old, could this be thinning?? need advice (pcs) Ok guys, recently I had my hair cut, and I'm getting more nervous about this issue. I have to go to a dermatologist as yet (just booked an appointment), and I can say that I'm getting a diffuse thinning all over my head, which I haven't...

    Propecia's devastating effect on neurohormones

    Hi guys, just had a look through this topic, and since this seems to be a very serious (and potent) risk for any finasteride user, I started to wonder about a couple of things (I think nobody has asked about that yet, if so, sorry for spamming): - Does this neurological degradation get worse with...

    [Please help] Miniaturised hair coming out all over the top

    Hello everyone. I've set up a couple of newbie question-topics earlier, but it seems like I might have more serious issue with baldness than I've thought. Anyway, the problem is as follows: I still have head full of hair, just some loss in the temples (NW2). I have some bigger shedding, but most...

    finasteride and brain fog - a frequent issue?

    Hi everyone, this is a question to all of you who are/have been on finasteride. The sexual side effects of finasteride are well known, but I've recently read about the other thing - the brain fog. There are some complains about the mental side effects, worse perception, deteriorated memory etc. Therefore I'd...

    [newbie question]losing ~100 hair in a shower, is it normal?

    Thanks for your reply. I've posted some pics in my thread (viewtopic.php?f=28&t=70933), almost no family history (just one of my dad's brothers is going NW4 in his 50s, dad is 55 right now and NW2, much like me). I do have some light hair in the frontline, don't know if it indicates an ongoing...

    [newbie question]losing ~100 hair in a shower, is it normal?

    I've set up a separate topic, as I could not find relevant info elsewhere in this forum. I wash my hair twice a week (with Nizoral), don't do much styling, and when I put my hand in the hair, I get usually a single (or two) hair with each stroke (so possibly no increased shedding). But I did a...

    Re: 20 yrs old, could this be thinning?? need advice (pcs) Thanks mate:) I don't have any massive shedding, but the majority of hair fallout comes from the frontal line, as if the temples were slowly creeping up... For now, I would like to thicken up the frontal area, but preferably with...

    rgbnm's story

    Hello everyone:) I'm from Poland, and I'm 20 years old. I never paid too much attention to my hair (or hairstyle), but recently got a bit worried - I think the hair density is going down, over the whole of the top of my head. Besides, my temples have been slowly creeping up for a couple of...

    Excessive hair fallout when pulling it out - pathology/norm?

    Hello to everyone :) I'm 20 years old, possibly starting to have same problems with hairloss. Here's the thing that got me noticed: I've read about the so-called pull test, where you pick a bunch of hair (40-60), and pull them out slowly but firmly, and after several times judge the result...
