Dam, i'm 20, and hair is a major part of my appearance....So, after being unable to find a dermotologist and hair shedding picking up incredibly quickly (probably 200-250 hairfall a day) I've decided to go order finasteride. I want to go to a derm but because my dad still has to renew his insurance (he's a snail, it'll take months) i'm going to order finasteride.I've mapped my hair for minaturization and all of my frontal hair is frail and falls off with the slightest tug... My temples are receding, that's for certain, called out by mom even, My back hair got thinner too, i'm thinking it might be DPA... I've done researches and since 96% of hairloss is male pattern baldness, (and because my hairline corners/temples are receding) I think i'll go to the derm after finasteride. My dad's bald and my mom's family is full of baldies, so I'll take finasteride, If i hit the genetic lottery and i don't have male pattern baldness, i'll stop it. I'm thinking of 0.5mg for three months, and 1mg after.

Your opinions please!
my pic is here, and my other pics are in the first thread i posted.

Take the half dosage for however long. Meaning .5 mg. Finasteride has been safe for me so far. Good luck.

how long have you been taking it? and does this look like male pattern baldness?

To be honest, it doesn't look so, but you will know your hair the best... if anything the temples are just now beginning to miniaturize so it's Very early, which means if you start treatment now, you will most likely regain everything.

hmm thanks, i think the reason why it doesnt look too bad is because my camera is awful, but thankss! i noticed I'm growing hair back in my hairline area, not sure if its becauSe of minoxidil or because of Telogen Effluvium
