EDIT: *CHANGED PICTURES* I choose some bad photos to put on. I only used them to show I can still make my hair look alright with tons of hair products and good lighting. That is not actually what my hair looks like. All of these pics are without gel. Hopefully these are a better depiction of what my hair actually looks like. Also I suck at photo editing lol...don't know how to crop just to keep head in pic.
Alright so my experience on this drug has been absolute sh*t. I will not post any pictures that friends or family have taken so kind of limits what I can post, but still have some pretty good photos of my experience on finasteride. Honestly, has been very brutal. Loss wasn't apparent to anyone but myself when starting, and is extremely apparent now. I've been on it 3 years in combination with minoxidil. Never seen anyone post such sh*t results before, so enjoy. (Age 20-23).
Right when starting finasteride (area I circled is where there is a small patch of miniaturized hairs; they're kind of crooked and don't grow quite as long; still good density there nonetheless; these hairs I noticed are the reason I jumped on finasteride; no1 else could see them though because it was still very dense, hairs were just a different texture than the rest):

2-3 Months on treatments (no change):
View attachment 59134
5-6 months on treatments: Scalp inflammation and scarring caused huge patch of hair loss on hairline
View attachment 59135
9 months? on treatments: Hair starting to fill in on that patch (still good density elsewhere)View attachment 59136
1.25-1.5 years on treatments: Density getting worse; hairline getting worse
View attachment 59137
1.5 years on treatments (density is much worse; hair that fell off from inflammation and scarring is sh*t quality and didn't all grow back)
View attachment 59138
2 years on treatments (hairline hasn't receded much more but density getting bad and center hairline receding and thinning bad)
View attachment 59139
Nearly 3 years on treatments (density of hair when damp)
View attachment 59140
View attachment 59141
1-2 months ago (3 years on treatments): Density is bad especially in front. Hairline looks like sh*t in front; hairline further receded
