Per the studies, most people see results in 6 months and results get better over time 1-2yrs. For most people, Finasteride does not regrow A LOT of hair. It shines at growing some and maintaining the hair while everyone else goes bald who is not taking it.

3 months and it right away it kicked in. Stopped my intense hairfall. Noticeably thickening in the mirror and sunlight. minoxidil also helped a lot.

Almost 22 months in and still waiting for it to stop my hair loss.. Seems to have done more harm than good unfortunately. I think if it does work you should see a reduction of hair loss within 3 months and a complete stoppage by month 6 with maybe some minor regrowth/thickening by the one year mark. If you are still losing your hair at the same pace or faster by month 9 I think its clear that it won't work for you. There are other options though if you are brave enough, as it has been shown that anti androgens can succeed where DHT inhibitor fail. So far I'm on a double whammy and nothing good to report yet. How long have you been on finasteride?

Did you notice your hair seem to thin out before the success?

Finasteride should kick in very quickly in halting further loss and getting rid of things like itching(if you suffer from that) a year or more to see regrowth if any. Some people see regrowth quicker(6 months) but that's not the norm.
