possibly what happens 2 months after you stop minoxidil for a week and a half

[zzzzz]

I discontinued minoxidil from like July 15th-24th because of a surgery I had. This is how my hair has deteriorated over the last 5 weeks. The shed is as bad as my initial shed and still showing no signs of stopping yet. Possible other reasons are: discontinued/on and off use of RU since July 15th as well, possible initial shed due to dutasteride (It is possible my dutasteride results thread is purely minoxidil based results, as my shed and regrowth started happening 4-5 months after starting minoxidil, and this may actually be an initial dutasteride shed which started 5 months after beginning treatment) I think minoxidil is to blame for this though. Hairline still excellent though both sides of hairline are shown in pic. Lighting is replicated almost perfectly for the before/after pics.

I too discontinued min for 4 months bcoz of surgery i had in December 2013. My hair become very worst and my head look like Norwood 5 that time.Then again on min from april and improving very slowly. But i think finasteride only helping . i started finasteride on april 2014.

Man, sorry about this, I didn't think stopping minoxidil for only ten days would lead to such results =\

Good luck for your re-regrowth !
