I took finasteride for about 8 months with no results and my hair got much worse. I have been on dutasteride for about a month along with rogaine and things seem to be getting better. BTW I am on .5 mg of dutasteride daily and applying rogaine foam twice a day.

Re: breadnbutter story (pics) I would say get on meds asap. I cannot believe you lost that much hair in a 3 year span. I would also recommend seeing a doctor because that is very aggressive hair loss. A transplant may be your only route also since you have lost so much hair. I would also...

From what I have heard other board members say a week should be fine.

Well I know a lot of people like to come on here and vent, and I never have, but I thought I should talk to someone about this issue. Well as the subject title reads I have been getting high again. I used to do drugs about six years ago and it ended me up in jail and rehab for about a year of...

I like the last response :hump:

Well I have been on propecia for almost 6 months. When I first started I had minor thinning in the crown area. Now I am completely diffused in a norwood 6 or 7 pattern. I have been shedding mostly thin hairs, but it seems like my whole head has thinned. Prior to starting propecia my frontal...

Re: Irishpride86's Story - (22 / Propecia 4 mounth update PICS!) Your hair looks a lot better. So you think getting off finasteride made it better? How is the thyroid thing? How long did it take for you to see results after quitting?

Re: Irishpride86's Story - (22 / Propecia 4 mounth update PICS!) Well I am afraid only time will tell for you. If in fact you do not have male pattern baldness and your hair loss is a result of your thyroid then meds for that should help, but make sure you ask for doctor for a med that doesnt cause hair loss...

Re: Irishpride86's Story - (22 / Propecia 4 mounth update PICS!) maybe the thyroid issue was your problem, and if so you should get on meds for that. what did you doctor say?
