trying to stuck this out with some hope of regrowth. the diffuse shedding has amplified and the quality of the hair being shed is thinner and shorter. should I keep going with the topical Finasteride? Only been losing hair for three years and I’m at about 20% density from baseline.

Thanks.

2-4 ml .5 topical Finasteride at night
5mg oral Minoxidil (2 years)
3 weeks Trinov (no hope)

i felt like my hair was worse / finas wasnt working for me a month or two after I started. Nowadays, I am about baseline but it feels like my hair is getting stronger for every month

been on finas for 5,42106034 months now

But you noticed something positive in the first few months? I’m just afraid I’m doing more harm than good 5 months in and I’m way way below baseline.

Honestly not really.. Like, my right temple seem'd pretty good the first month in, but then from nowhere it got fucked. And that's when I thought to myself, I'm probably not a responder, but it feels like i've slowly been improving since then

Reporting in.

Around the 4-5 month Mark I got INSANE shedding. Took months for the shedding to drop. Now I shed less than I did pre-finasteride.
