TS, I had the same problems with shedding on finasteride as you. you might want to lower your dosage of finasteride or switch to dutasteride.

I have the exact same sides as you - rapid heartbeat, dark cirkles, worse sleep experience. wakes me up in the middle of the night to take a leak (tested it several times, definitely minoxidil). I had some results but the sides made me quit the drug. I was thinking about trying another brand, I had...

Hello fellow hair loss fighters! My last experience with dutasteride was a bad one (wrong dosage = lots of shedding) and I was wondering if anyone can help me out finding the following info: How long does it take to get dutasteride out of your system? (seems to be months as I can see, but...

I think I am 2 with a small but visible gap on the vertex. I've just touched the scalp (forehead part) and saw some oil on my fingers. I dont think that my hair is oily but it surely looks worse with my scalp skin like that. No pimples. Three weeks without finasteride - less and less shedding, almost...

it's an old post - my hair got better first (as I thought), then worse (due to shedding), then better again (I guess it recovered), then worse again (shedding since I have started taking finasteride second time). I have started new thread on topic of early shedding and oily scalp specifically

Hi guys! I've decided to start a new thread on this specific topic as I couldn't find enough info (all of the posts I have found were really old) about others experience on early shedding and oily scalp on finasteride. So here is my story: First time I started using finasteride was in December 2015. I...

I've been using minoxidil for almost six months and there was always no or little shedding. I have added finasteride again for three weeks this July and experienced massive shedding and thinning on the second-third week. I have experiences testicular and nipple pain in first ten days or so. I have...

I've been using minoxidil for almost six months and there was always no or little shedding. I have added finasteride for three weeks this July and experienced massive shedding and thinning on the second week. I have stopped finasteride and the shedding seemed to slow down. But it is still far more than it used...

Whats up guys, I'd like to share un update on my experience with finasteride and hairloss overall. So I did finasteride for 3-4 months and had to stop it due to side effects I have started noticing like - fewer and more fluid semen, decrease in libido and emotional instability. I did not experience any...

Thanks for the replies guys! nate30, did you try it by yourself? I think that is an interesting approach, I will take a try tomorrow and let you know how it works - - - Updated - - - rogerackroyd, do you mean you use minoxidil orally? or have you switched to other medications like finasteride?

Hello, guys! Been here with you for quite a while. I have been on finasteride for several month, didnt see much results and decided to facilitate it with one time per day application of Rogaine foam (in the evening). Also I am using Lipogaine shampoo a couple every week. I think this regimen made my...

So there are a lot of guys who have experienced excessive shedding after starting finasteride (me too). Is there anyone who has overcome this period and has grown his hair back? Is it sync like with minoxidil or is it a bad sign?
