Hey all, ive seen the same pattern time and time again with finasteride, if it works people will see a visual improvement within 3 - 6 months or notice that their hair loss has stopped.
Im almost 10 months in and my hair loss has only progressed faster since being on treatments, im pretty close to a norwood 3 now and probably only have about a months worth of finasteride left, i dont want to keep buying it since i have seen absolutely no benefit from taking it. Has anyone on finasteride experienced the same and stuck it out to eventually find their hairloss has stopped?
I guess im hoping that if i stop my hair will revert to pretreatment, which was a very gradual recession instead of rapid visual changes every month :(

For what its worth im also on loniten, mildly shedding but nothing bad. Still no regrowth though. What do I do guys? im stuck between a rock and a hard place right now!

I would keep on finasteride and add in either RU nightly of dutasteride a couple times a week.

RU sounds like a good idea, dutasteride not so much. Wouldn't it just have the same effect finasteride is having only worse? I'd rather not be NW3 by the end of the year but it looks like thst may be a reality unfortunately.
