Has Anyone Recovered From A Reflex-hyperandrogenicity From Finasteride At All?

So, basically the only way to know is by doing bloodwork? If hormone levels not significantly different from before, then its likely increased sensitivity?

Not exactly, even if the levels were much lower if your AR sensitivity went up that'd be RHA. You can't test for it.

It's not Telogen Effluvium, it's when your androgen receptors over compensate for the lack of a certain hormone by getting more sensitive. In the follicle AR receptors case, it would mean less DHT/T does more damage, if it existed.

If this is the case, could increasing dht/test actually help?

So, did anyone recover/stabilize by quitting finasteride and staying on minoxidil and dermarolling only? How long before that happened?

Hey. How are you doing now its been 7 months. Has your shedding stabilized?
