im a serious diffuse thinnier and am contemplating jumping on duta and totally skipping the finasteride, i need something agressive

i skipped finasteride and jumped onto dutasteride.

i been on ********* for 10 months, and my hairloss progressed so much, that i decided to jump onto dutasteride.

when did you get on dutasteride??

put a date in your regimine thing.

I started on early on mid-october onwards.

One month is far too soon for anyone to provide an insight into whether a drug like dutasteride is working for them.

I have some dutasteride (I'm a woman). I took it for two weeks, then spoke via email to Dr. Redmond in NY who told me that in women it needs to be given with other meds.

I'm sure I will need some type of estrogen and progesterone with it.

I have an appt with the Doctor in one week, and I want to see what he can tell me about avoiding a big shed, as my hair is 2.5 feet long and it took 20 years to grow. I could not recover from a major shed like a guy whose hair is short could.

That's why I'm not using it (yet).
 

not me!

I feel that the one year mark (which I just recently passed) is when you actually start seeing the most benefit.

Why does it differ from finasteride in that way? I thought they did the same thing, and with finasteride people have seen results sooner than a year into treatment.

Notme!

That's interesting. Can you say that your results with dutasteride didn't kick in until the 1 year mark? Also, did things get worse before they got better? I thinned out quite a bit around the hairline with dutasteride after 5 months but thought it was just a shed. I rode it out until month 8 but couldn't take it anymore and dropped it.
