For the first time in 5 years I feel good about my hair. I've been on finasteride for 5 months now and It's definitely doing its job. I had quite an intense shedding phase and I thought about quitting a few times, but I'm glad I didn't. I was consistent with my regimen, I didn't miss a single day of finasteride (1.25mg/day) and minoxidil (1ml/day at night).
After about 4 months of shedding I had already lost a fair amount of density but at that point the shedding started to decrease. It has stopped now.
At the same time a lot of terminal hairs started to come in. They're still there and are blending in with the rest of my hair. I can already see the second wave of regrowth. A lot of new vellus hairs and some new terminal hairs!
Before. This was at the worst point, during the shed I believe.
When I wake up my hair looks something like this.
I'm so excited for the next few months! My hair already feels so much healthier and it's looking better everyday.
