Its been over 2 years now using proscar (1/5). I can say now that i am satisfied with my hair. Just went to the barber last week, and my hair is juste perfect. During those 2 years, i had some shed period that you have to ride. At the end it will pay though. Use minoxidil too.
Thanks Grabber, good to hear you got where you wanted. Been a week on finasteride and all o.k. for me and just started Spetral DNC yesterday.
Hoping to slow things down quickly but know it could take months to get better. Most of the loss is over the last 6 months...if I could regain half that I would be very happy.
I think my loss was pretty stable when I started finasteride and had noticeable improvement in the texture and thickness of my hair, including the "wreath", within 2 months of starting the drug and have been improving very quickly with never a sign of a shed. I'm now at the beginning of month 9 and things are looking wonderful.
