Was messing about with a webcam i have, turns out it takes very close up pics.

Ordered my first batch of finasteride in March 2015, Finax branded 1mg tablets taking 1/4 a day, so .25mg per day. Continued this until switching to Finast branded 5mg tablets, taking 1.25mg a day from October onwards to present.
I was using Kirkland liquid minoxidil most of last year but developed SEVERE scalp itch. I thought it was just a side of balding so i carried on until it got unbearable. Literally itched like mad, eating spicy food made it worse. Bought Kirkland foam and used for a month around November, realised it got rid of the itching. So from around Jan this year i switched to Foligan minoxidil 5% foam and have used that since.

This is what my crown looks like under a very close lens with the webcams 6 LED lights on it:

I don't see ANY new sprouting hairs at all which is a bit disheartening. For reference here is a pic with the lights on zoomed out, and one under natural light

Thoughts? I'm 25 and started losing it at 18, i've maintained since i started finasteride but looks like regrowth is off the cards

you're not going to see them. They start off so thin, the light goes right through them. I have taken several pics like this and haven't seen anything and according to that, and the way im shedding, I should have been bald 2 years ago...

Temples have clear peach fuzz in areas but dont think they've filled in really
