I shed diffusely for years before deciding on finasteride. Within the first two days, I completely stopped shedding, and haven't shed since. In fact, I've never had a significant shed since starting on either finasteride or minoxidil.
Perhaps I'm the exception, more than the rule. But people like me definitely do exist.

Everyone does. I believe they say the average person loses 100 hairs a day.
i shed about 6 months after starting treatment. i started finasteride back in feb 2005. i been on it a year and a half. recently i started a 2nd shed. my hair looks good before, now it looks like sh*t. i did go out of town and lost my medicine and was finasteride free for 5 days. kinda sucks. had the rogaine but didnt have the finasteride.
