    Going from minoxidil to finasteride. More shedding?

    For the past 6 months I've been taking minoxidil foam (Kirkland brand) once a day. I was experiencing side effects like baggy eyes, dark circles, etc but didn't know why. Now that I know why, I've been thinking of switching to finasteride. My question is: Will the hair I lost due to the shed from starting...

    DO you plan on going back to minoxidil or staying with finasteride? As I understand it quitting minoxidil like that will cause a shed. My mother showed me THIS article today. Anyone have thoughts on it?

    Sorry I've been AFK for awhile. Tomorrow I'm getting a haircut and I'll post pics. I'm actually thinking I may give Propecia a try for a few months and see how it effects me (side-effects wise). If the side effects aren't that bad I'll keep it going as long as I can. I looked up a price for a...

    For most of my life I believed I was safe from male pattern baldness as my dad still had his hair up until his mid 50s, and its just starting to become noticeable. Me being only 27 I didn't believe I had anything to worry about, until about 4 months ago when I stepped out of the shower and looked in the mirror...
