I've been on finasteride and minoxidil for just about a year and a half and have had GREAT success. The last few months I'm going through a pretty big shed as well. So far it doesn't seem to be noticeable and I've gone through sheds before so I'm just waiting it out. Also apparently lots of...

I’ve been on finasteride for a year and 4 months and had really great results. I’d say I noticed it was maybe was working about 8 months in and then very notable a year in. Also every 4 months I had a massive shed where I thought I was losing my hair worse then ever. You have a long way to go...

Well maybe for a while my semen was watery... And my scalp itched from time to time but not anymore. Thats about it. I have had no other issue. So Before I started taking Finasteride I couldn't really grow my hair too long because it grew all un even especially on top. And as you can see in the...

Maybe 8 months in. I took pictures every month. You need to take photos to notice results.

No, I am a bit mixed. All european mostly Italian.

Yes! a few times. Once when I first start, again 4 months later, and again 5 months after that. Each time I thought I was losing all my hair. I would shake my hands though my hair and hundreds of hairs would fall out (I did this once over my desk and counted them). Also I thought my hair looked...

No real side effects. I did go through multiple shedding phases but I thinks that's all part of the process. The first 2 photos are from the month I started. The last 3 photos are at one year.

So I have been on finasteride and minoxidil for a little over a year. In that time I've had significant improvements. I'm incredibly happy with my results. Having said that I'm curious if the progress will continue. My hair is a lot thicker than it was and even other ppl have noticed and told...

I've been on Finasteride and minoxidil for about a year and have been pretty satisfied with the results. I've had a few shedding periods but overall the pictures from the top of my head all seem to have improved. So I decided to try and grow my hair out long and noticed that my hair on top of...

I did both but ended up settling on the foam because it was just easier to manage. I believe with the liquid its half what fills into the dropper. I put it all over the top but made a point to massage the problem areas. I prefer the foam because it doesnt leave me with a greasy head.

I think any regimen takes time. On the package for minoxidil it says 3 months. I didnt notice anything for almost 10. I know that's stressful to hear but you really have to just be patient and stick it out. Take pictures and wait. I kept my hair pretty short through most of it. And didn't really...

Yes. I've been on both for about a year.

When my sheds were bad I buzzed my head and kept it very short for a while. My plan was to give it a year and see what happened. As of right now which is about a year in, I'm better off than I was when I started. My crown was very thin no matter which way I combed it and my hairline looked was...

I think its because your poll question is worded a bit weird with the answer options. But I will say I had a bad shed and recovered and had good results. I'm also on finasteride. It took about 10 months to see results.

I started taking finasteride and minoxidil at the same time so I cant tell which made my shed worse and my hair better. But I guess the theory is that the cause of the shed is you are kinda jump starting your hair cycle and will get fuller hairs. I am sure there is a better way to explain that...
