Hi all,

Just a few results from my 9 months on dutasteride. All in all, very positive, although I still scare the hell out of myself every now and then. Really, I wish I knew why this bothered me so much. Every time I think I'm losing hair, my self-confidence deserts me. Rather than messing around with hair loss cures I'd much rather just be one of those guys who loses hair, accepts it, and just gets on with life.

Anyway, I'm not so...I was on finasteride for about 2-3 years before it started to fade a bit, added Folligen & Lysine for about 4 years which worked very, very well - grew back a lot of hair - before it too started to fade off a bit last year. Now on dutasteride for about 9 months which has thickened up the front a lot, and is working on the back too. I am currently freaking out about the fact that it looks a little thinner at the back, but am fairly sure that its my last haircut that is doing it. Will no doubt be posting again soon if not.

I am thinking seriously about just shaving my head. I am honestly sick and tired of worrying about this thing and the effect is has on me, I do often wonder if it might be easier to shave my head whilst I have the choice, and just get used to the shape of my face with very little hair! Any opinions on this? Do you worry less about losing hair when you head is shaved?

Anyway, in this post at least things are positive. Bye for now guys.

you can also find some stories about talking dutas at this site.

most of them were positive like:
At the 17 month mark I've had improved the overall thickness of my hair. I would say it's improved by 25%-50%. When I say my thickness has improved, I'm speaking about areas where I already have hair.

take a look!

I've been on dutas for about 11 months now and its increased my thickness/density loads. check out my pics for more info http://www.hairlosstalk.com/discussions ... hp?t=28295.

About 3 months ago added dr lee's minoxidil+retin A once a day and MSM and my crown has filled in no end. Give dutas a chnace and maybe u wont have to shave your head, but bear in mind it might take 12 months to see significant improvement

oh the pics are after 9 months and only just after I started minoxidil so theses results are really just dutas results, my hair looks even better after starting minoxidil. If yer not using minoxidil already i'd recommend u get on it for maximum improvement

You are using Dr. Reddy's Dutas right? Are you using it every day or every other day?

Thanks
