Yeah I'm not so fussed with the regrouping anymore u just want to keep what I have. My hairline wasn't impacted when finasteride stopped working was only the crown. It feels a bit thicker now than it did in January at least. I'm going to start using a microneedle pen soon instead of the roller.

Yeah Dutasteride with minoxidil foam and microneedling every 2 weeks with a 1.5mm. Last week I noticed I'm now not losing hair when showering. I was losing loads for the past year but noticed a total stop this past month. Hopefully I can maintain now.

A week so far on the new regime and no sides to report. I'm ready for the inevitable shedding phase so won't worry too much about that. Some pics to show the current level of hair loss especially on crown

Yes was always on generic finasteride, it changed several times during orders between 3 or 4 brands. My hairline is still responding well its the crown where I started to lose more hairs in the last month or 2 so decided to give Dutasteride a shot. My hairs so much better now that what it was...

This is true. I'm happy I got a good few years out of finasteride and my hair loss now is no where near as bad as it was before I started all this. I am in my mid 30s though so always to be expected.

Update Decided to stop taking Finasteride as starting to lose hair again and today started 0.5mg of Dutasteride. Have a 6 month supply so will see how I go with that. Will add that to minoxidil and dermaroling to see how things progress.

Some recent ones, haircuts a DIY so hairs a bit funked up

So you know for a fact things will change for people who have experienced no side effects for years? Please show the facts of that statement

Very sad for the OP but millions upon millions of people take Finasteride and have done for many years and don’t have so much as an itch to report back. As with any medication in the world there are going to be a very very small pocket of people who react badly to it that’s just the way it is...

How is the oral one for you? Is this one you make yourself or do you purchase it from somewhere?

Kirkland foam, get it fairly cheap 3 month supply £28 online. The solution is cheaper but I like the convenience of the foam

Not really got much to report, some gradual loss on crown but nothing major. Still on same routine and this is just after applying foam. Not really going to pursue the transplant for now due to my current style (fade wouldn’t work too well with any procedure). Will continue for the time being...

Started to use a dermaroller on 0.5 to start 2-3 times a week to fit into regime so will see if that makes any gains. Just got a cheap one off eBay with some Surgical spirit to clean it after use. How long do these rollers last?

Thanks, I’m really happy although I think it’s reached the stage where it will only lessen as time goes on but for now I’m glad I started this. I’ve never tried the Derma rolling thing as in not sure of the benefits and I already spend enough time on my hair as it is! Maybe if I done some more...
