great results, glad you didn't make the same mistake i did and used minoxidil along with it and just stuck to finasteride. You should definitely see even more improvement in the next 6 months.

Minoxidil thinned my crown and made it worse. Now any hairs i actually did grow are dependent...need to wait 6 months or so to return to baseline after stopping and even then it may never return to the state it was before i started. If i knew back then what i know about minoxidil now i would never have touched it and instead just used finasteride and nizoral for a year. Anyway, didn't mean to hijack your thread, if you are seeing such result so early you are a good response so expect even better results in the coming months.

i was on it for 3/4 months, i stopped because of side effects(bloated looking face) and because it was thinning the areas i was applying it too. Im not the first person to have this happen to them, i have been reading about it constantly these past few weeks. I agree with you about finasteride though, read alot of scare stories about it but i haven't had any side effects from it.

Damn that sucks man, i actually ordered minoxidil and was gona use it soon, i think i'll start on a small section first to see how it goes and then apply in sections if the results are good.

I would personally just give finasteride a solid year first and then start thinking about adding minoxidil later on if needed. Oops sorry, i was mistaking you for the OP lol

You are a quick responder and you should definitely see more improvements over the next 6 months, people see improvements even after the first year mark with finasteride.
