been on propecia 6 months shed at 3/4 months, then no more, realised when i went to hairdressers id thinned out a bit on top , 8 days ago got on the minoxidil 5% twice a day and nizoral, BANG!!! shedding for the last 5 days about thirty / fourty in shower, ten on pillow!! has anyone been through this, obviously i have to stay on it now and ride it out, but i cant help feeling i shouldnt have decided on minoxidil till a year on propecia! any one done the above and had the same experience????
....I know shedding is a good sign most of the time but i just want this shedding to stop!!!!
is there anything you can do to reduce this?

thanks guys - I've got some pics i took at the start of minoxidil 8 days ago, so im going to update every month
ill get them up soon

Got about the same sory as you but with a small twist... Used NISIM for about a year and ive recently started on minoxidil 5%. Bin on minoxidil for 1 week and i feel that the hairs around the hairline wich already was small had shredded like crazy. 1 year ago i chould not see the scalp there but now i clearely do. I know it is supposed to shread in start, but this early?

Do you got any pictures so we can see how much you shredded? "shedding a stupid amount" dont have to be so much as you tell it from your point of view...
