Hi guys, I have been searching this site for a long time reading up on treatments and success/failure stories and I kind of have one of my own weird situation. I have been using Kirkland 5% Minoxidil since December 2015 and had great success, like I literally went from a visible scalp with diffuse thinning to getting back ALL of my hair on my head to the point where I forgot I was balding! But from 7-8 months into the treatment I could see some thinning again, I used to religiously apply it twice a day but once my hair was back i would tend to miss one or two morning applications or tend to apply my morning application later in the day which could be the contributor to the thinning. Long story short, I buzzed my hair in November 2016 hoping to grow it back stronger but my hair has gone to sh*t now and is below baseline prior to beginning minoxidil. I am now on Propecia 1mg daily and am currently at the 2 month mark, I wanted to know if due to the success of gaining all my hair from minoxidil and then losing the majority, would I have possibly have the same result on Propecia and gain the same hair? I am still using the minoxidil too...

I have not taken either of these drugs but all people say finasteride needs time because it slowly increases the thickness of your existing hair and may show some additional results. Are you having no side effects?
