VERY IRRADIC SHEDDING, PLEASE GIVE ME FEEDBACK

[pmzito]

hey guys.

i been taking my proscar cut into 5ths since february 2005. recently i been looking at my pillow and it is coverred with hair. im like omg! i run my fingers through my hair even after a shower and more comes out.

everything i read said shedding happens at the 6 week period or 2 month period. according to me starting propecia/proscar in february it has been 6 months that I have been on the stuff every single day.


why is my shedding happening now? has anyone else had their shedding happen at a later date like this? it has been 2-3 weeks of this so far and im freaking out. any info you guys can give would be great.

the thing that worries me is i am at the 6 month point of treatment not the 2 month.

I have heard other people experience sheds several months into treatment too. Is this the first shed you experience?or you had an initial shed too?

Do not freak out; it is probably coming thicker and stronger.

omg, seriously my hair was never this thin before. when it is wet it looks like sh*t. even now my hair looks worse than when i started taking this stuff.


i sit here and shake hairs out that basically all over my chest. not like 5 or 6, im talking like 20+
