finpecia for a week

[djthomas85]

hi guys ive been on finpecia a week and can safely say that i can see a bit more of a my scalp than before (thinner).

i really dont like wat im seeing, but i know people say that this could be a shed, but even still i dont like what im seeing , im really considering upping the dosage to 2mg of finpecia a day, is there any doubts?!

is this a good sign that its working??

need advice here bigtime

any opinions or thoughts would be much appreciated

thanks

Dave

one week is still too early for a (finasteride) shed.

o dear then!

i did also start rogaine foam like 3 weeks ago?!

could that be the shed then?

Yes, sounds much more like a minoxidil shed to me. So, relax and stick with your treatments! 3 weeks is nothing.

Dj I am almost 100% sure that it is a minoxidil shed. I started minoxidil when I noticed mine right temple going north and after 3 weeks bam shed! I got scared because I started seeing my scalp. My left temple started going nort and it happened only during a week or 2. I got scared. jumped on propecia added apple poly and sweared to never use minoxidil again. I am at 3-4 month of a treatment and I am getting my hair back! My left temple is like it was before my right is impoving and vertex is thickening up.
Good luck bro

i would say i had a shed approx 1-2 months into using propecia...it must have been a shed since i was loosing far more hair than i normally would have. currently my hair loss has almost completely stopped (month 7) and i would have to say thinkened...for now at least.

would like to say i have noticed some hairs around my temples but this could be further miniturisation, could be new hair though...who knows. my crown hasn't gotten any worse since month 2 and i thought i felt some tiny prickly hairs the other day though, its impossible to see your own crown though and i'm not going to get anybody else to have a butchers.
