I just reached my second month (started April 22nd. Every day dosage, dosed back at the end of May to 2x/week. Anyway, I’ve noticed my temples getting worse, going upward, toward the top a little. When I run my hands through my hair, no hairs come out, besides the thin meh looking ones, and even then those are few and far between. Maybe 1-2 hairs every 3 sift throughs. It’s definitely a shed because my temples had more hair. Definitely. But as far as I can tell I’m only losing the douchebag hairs.

No signs of regrowth yet. But since it happens in phases, the hair regrowth should come after the loss, correct?

I hear it can be a good shed if you’re only really losing the idiot hairs, but clarification would ease my ever-living anxiety:)

In same boat but using finasteride. It feels like my left temple just keeps getting worse. The thinning area where I started is even thinner. I'm worried that finasteride won't do sh*t and I'm in that 10% non responder group.
