Success?!

[Jaz]

I first started noticing I was losing my hair when I was about 21, its been a very slow process from then until I was 25 when my temples were really starting to show. It was only then I decided to do something about it.

I started on Finpecia back in November taking 1mg daily, however 1 month in and I was experiencing some heavy side effects (mainly anxiety) so came off it then re-started on .5mg a day in January. Suffice to say the sides are no more!

Well, its been about 4 months into my current regime and I've experienced some good results. The single most noticable result is that the overall condition of my hair has improved - I no longer need to wash my hair everyday to get it looking half decent. I'm under no illusion about re-growth, all I'm aiming to do is maintain my existing hair which I think is about all the majority of us can hope for, anything else is a bonus.

Success? I'll let you be the judges!

I truly believe finasteride makes hair healthier.

Thanks!

I did go through a brief shed at the very start, I noticed I'd lost more around the temple area. That lasted about a month I think.

wah...thats a good improvement....can tell me more your regimen? maybe the details

Nizoral twice a week rotated with Revivogen 3-4 times a week, .5mg of finasteride a day, glass of Emerald Balance daily (taken mainly for health purposes than for hair). Other than that I have a pretty healthy diet, lots of fresh fruit & veg.

thankz jaz ! anyway im going thru a shed right Norwood. currently 2 months plus on proscar 1.25. so demoralized Norwood. my temples seem to fade like yours. bt i hope there is improvement to be seen.

when did u experience your first shed ? 3 or 4 weeks after treatment ?
thanks much

The first shed was very early on back in November maybe 3 weeks into taking 1mg finasteride daily. It didn't seem to last very long, but then again I came off finasteride not long after because of the side effects I was getting.

Stick with it through the shedding mate, what else does your regime consist of?
