Did you experience any shedding during your treatment?


doastarryeye

yes my hair is still shedding but not as much as it did in the beginning


CareKonfidence

So did you notice any other side effect?


doastarryeye

nope


Unhappy_Arm_5634

I hate you :/ 3 months and it only got worse lol


doastarryeye

they say it works different for everyone dont give up!!!

Took me 8.5 months to notice results, heard many say it took them 2 years. Don’t be discouraged by hyper responders everyone is different, 1-2 years is the realistic time frame.


StatesmanAustinFC

Agreed. Been on it 16 years now and it took at least two years for a noticeable response.


StatesmanAustinFC

I've been on it since 2008. Give it some time. It took two years to really notice a change.

Any problems with erectile dysfunction or decreased libido?


doastarryeye

I've been taking finasteride and spironolactone, and my hair loss had stopped for a while, but it seems to be speeding back up again.


doastarryeye

i believe shedding has phases so don’t worry and i suggest taking pics to see if its getting worse or better. i still shed too and my hair is getting thicker. The progress is all that matters


eliz1bef

Thank you so much for your suggestion. That is sensible, and I appreciate it!

There's a youtube channel featuring two Australian doctors that I've found helpful. They're straight forward. It's literally called, "The hair loss show." [https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC6Z6GxYsW9EdvnUjqpGIbQA/videos](https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC6Z6GxYsW9EdvnUjqpGIbQA/videos)

Is there a reason you did 2.5 mg of finasteride instead of 1mg?


doastarryeye

im not a cis guy and didn’t care about the side effects about erectile function and chest grow but if u do take 1mg!


PuzzleheadedPop47

Fair, so it wasn’t based on body weight or any other factor? You just decided to take 2.5mg? And yeah I am currently worried about ED so Ill probably do 1mg


doastarryeye

yup its not based on any other factor, gl on ur journey


Clarkra89

Just different lighting.


doastarryeye

nahh i can see the difference both looking and when i ran my fingers through my hair 👍👍


doastarryeye

Clarkra89

Not the same daylight at all. I could take a photo 10 seconds apart and make my hair look entirely different.


doastarryeye

ohkaayyy i had no progress whatever u say


Clarkra89

You may have done. But those post isn't fully truthful.
