    14 months ish on finasteride update

    Welp. Crown loss has started. I never experienced finasteride sides, nor did I ever shed, nor do I really notice shedding hairs but my crown is thinner and starting to be noticeable. Guys I know hair loss is relative and to some of you this might anger you because you'll be like "I am so much worse...

    How long into finasteride have you noticed ups and downs?

    I've been on fine for about 14 months now. No side effects to speak of, I never had them. I come from a strong family background or hairloss (except for my dad who is 55 and a nw1.1). What started as temple recession has apparently morphed into some noticeable thinning in the crown too...

    What norwood is this balding?

    My hairline is very very similar. I also have similar straight hair. Curly headed men seem to have a leg up on covering temples whereas mine (and it looks like yours as well) hair grows straight forward. It's hard to sweep to one side without exposing the other temple worse. With all of...

    Add dutasteride to finasteride regimine, switch, Or wait another year?

    On finasteride for 1 year

    So is there any correlation in susceptibility to sides on finasteride vs dutasteride? I haven't had any sides to date really to speak of on finasteride. (Buying generic at Costco, so it's legit)

    On finasteride for 1 year

    I just hit my 1 year mark on finasteride, with no noticeable improvement, and potential slightly increased hairline recession. I am a nw2. I will work on getting pictures up tomorrow (after I get a haircut for apples to apples comparison to original pics) My question is should I consider dutasteride...

    Ginger scalp care by The Body shop is a PO shampoo. It's also awesome and affordable as a daily use. I love it

    If you're an American, there is NO reason you should be buying finasteride online...

    Ive been on it for 8 months. Not much (if any results) but Im a full crown of hair, fighting a nw2 hairline kind of guy. So Im realistic that I may never "see" results... and in fact not seeing anything (get worse) may be results themselves. Moms side of hair = all men BALD as **** by 40...

    finasteride is a wonder drug

    have you had regrowth in your temple areas as well? Ive been on finasteride for 8 months, no crown loss that I can tell, but Ive got a nw2 on a high forehead and it looks fugly. finasteride hasnt helped temples the least bit.

    If you're an American, there is NO reason you should be buying finasteride online...

    walmart, walgreens, cvs etc are all alot more. I too fill at costco and for some bizarre reason its like 30% the price of everyone else. I get 90 day supply 1mg for around 30 bucks. Not even worth trying to cut them for that. Costco is the only way to go
