Hello all,
So I am 19 y/o VERY agressive male pattern baldness. My hairline is a solid NW2, but the heavy damage is the rest of my head. I am thinning in nw6 pattern, especially in my crown/vertex. I am at the point where anyone can see my scalp from a few feet away. My father was nw6 at age 23 and I am on the same path.
So this leads me to finasteride which I started 3 weeks ago. Also started nizoral today (I wanted to start a year ago, but the Doctor told me I am not developed enough).I am getting very weird sides.
-very slight gyno, right breast
-acne, breaking out like crazy
-Weirdest of all, a TON of wet dreams. Seriously, a ridiculous amount. I used to have wet dreams once a year, now I am having them every 2-3 days. Not only that, but my ejaculation increased like crazy.
-Heavy heavy shed. Hairs are falling out everywhere, just more added stress...
So my questions are this. One, has anyone experienced similar sides?
and 2, more importantly, will finasteride even have an effect on me? Given my extremely aggressive male pattern baldness, should I get off finasteride and jump straight into dutasteride? I cannot afford to wait a full year on finasteride to see if its working, at this rate, there will be barely any hair left.
Cheers
