I'll try to keep it short..First noticed hair loss at the age of 22 when a friend mentioned it. I'm now glad that he did or I may have gone on a lot longer without doing anything about it.
Started taking Propecia with Nizoral a few months later in April 2003. After about 2 months or so, I started shedding heavily - I would notice at least 15 hairs in my hands every time I showered. This went on for about 2 months. At around month 5, my shedding decreased but did not stop. I am now almost through with 10 months on Propecia. My hair has gotten noticibly worse since I started taking it. It has thinned all over and my scalp is slightly visible in the light. However I am encouraged that my hair loss seems to be slowing down considerably..I'm hoping I'm just a slow responder. Now I'm noticing only 5 or 6 hairs in my hands each time I shampoo.
I would appreciate any advice or experiences from slow responders to Propecia. I'm hoping my hair will grow back to what it was when I first started taking it. It seems like it is working but still I have grown NO new hair and the hair that I lost while ON Propecia still hasn't grown back.
