Shedding For Months After Stopping Finasteride Due To Sides

[john1245]

Hi guys I've been on rogaine for 9 months and had great regrowth it had regrown my full hairline but I've been shedding like crazy recently I was taking finasteride for a month in November and had to stop due to side I'm wondering is the shedding related to that or is it a second shed on rogaine ? Also I've added nizoral to my regimine could the shedding be down to that ? Please help

I was receding until rogaine then that has all regrown really but now I've just lost a lot of density recently can't help but feel it's the nizoral that thinned my hair out ?

dont use nizoral more than twice a week (especially 2 percent), it can definitely dry the f*** out of your hair making it feel WAYY less dense.

That's the thing I've only been using it twice a week the days I use it I shed so much more is there such a thing as a nizoral shed like rogaine ?

Nizoral can cause shedding but this shedding is likely due to the minoxidil or finasteride. The only way to find out is to ride it out unfortunately.

I'm going to try finasteride again after the summer to see what reaction I have this time, I seem to shed so much more on the days that I use nizoral, is a second shed on rogaine common ?

I would say so. Im shedding right now too but I'm not sure if it's a second minoxidil shed or a finasteride shed..
