You're in Canada...do you have vitamin D deficiency? When I lived in Seattle, I had vitamin D deficiency and my beard was more patchy and less full along with my hair. Also, the stress of all this can cause patchiness and less hair growth. finasteride doesn't hurt your hairline or beard dude...you're letting all this anxiety play tricks on your brain. Have you tried 5% minoxidil twice/day along with finasteride?
[/QUOTE]Mate,
Your hairline is exactly the same as mine and I did the same. No joke, finasteride did f*ck all for me and during this time my hairline significantly worsened!
I am on dutasteride now however even on this there is absolutely nothing promising coming through...i am very, very close to having to do something drastic to cover it up because its only just acceptable. I think the next logical thing for me (and probably you) would be to look at RU?

Finn raises testosterone.. because of this I think for some men it destroys the hairline FASTER.. perhaps my hairline was going to go back.. but over time.. over years.. nobody in my family has a hairline like mine.. my grand father has better hair then me.. and my father.. explain that to me. I think finasteride just accelerated would was bound to happen but at least I would of had my damn hairline while I was young.. the amount of depression this gives me has become unbearable. I was also just starting to finally develop a beard when I started this.. and hear I am with a still patchy beard.. when my whole family can grow thick ones.. Finn deff has been known to slow beard growth.. theres not a lot of research when it comes to development.. but I believe to that finasteride can affect your development when youre still young like I am.. nothing worse then balding and a patchy beard.. at least with a thick beard I would feel more confident shaving. Heres pictures of me currently..
