I was shedding before finasteride, I believe the shedding increased for awhile after getting on but has settled back down. I still see hair on my pillow and towel when drying it after showering. Should I move up the dose? I started at 0.25 because I was worried about sides, i'm now at 6 months but still shedding

Considering 0.25 reduces almost as much dht as 1mg i think its safe to presume you wont get sides if you increase the dosage, however i dont think it would make a difference if you are still shedding. Im almost 9 months in and my thinning is continuing rapidly.

uh boy. Do some people just start shedding and not stop until they're horse shoe bald? I thought that shed terminal hair was supposed to grow back. albeit weaker

Thanks for the reply

You need to increase the dose to 1 mg or 1.25 mg if you are cutting up 5 mg pills. I wouldn't evaluate the success or failure based on 0.25
