1st: How many ppl really have succes with finasteride? Because i think thousans are under treatment and active here on this forum but only a few succes stories that ive read.

2nd: All of those who started finasteride faced this shedding before starting to see some results?

3rd: Is that true that finasteride could help with seb dermatits?(this is what my derm said).

Thanks in advance ... i created this topic becoz i wanna know how many chances i have to see some real results with finasteride..

Your derm said finasteride can help with seb derm? I think I have seb derm and I suspect propecia would help but im afraid to try it and most doctors say dht is not linked at all to itchy scalps or seb derm .

Do you really think you can find "thousands" of active posters here? Try counting them and get back to me if you get above 100-150 or so, of regular, active posters(meaning more than a few posts here and there) You need to realize that most people that are on treatments especially those that are responding nicely, probably don't even know this site exists.

I never had a shed that I noticed. Great results.

I don't know, but I think there are posters here with that condition.

i must say, finasteride did seem to be auccessful, yet I have stopped taking it due to side affects. My main issues being gyno which i noticed the onset of, and fertility issues which may arise.

I do beleive i was a great responder....

Now im only 17 ... and i MUST hope that my hair will grow as it was before taking accutane.

Till then i have to find a treatment for my seb derm.
