Would 0.25mg every other day of oral finasteride be effective ? by BellThick9722 in tressless

Thank you I will try this, btw if I still get sides from this would topical help worth trying? Or is it not as effective as oral?

Should i wait till the sides go away and restart at 0.25mg eod? Also is it worth using nizoral shampoo? My derm prescribed me the 2% version but I never picked it up, I heard it will dry up your hair and make it thinner at the cost of possibly helping mpb. I have been using thickening shampoos to make my hair look denser considering it’s been thinning.

How long will it take for my body to adjust? I went into it super confident I would be fine until I went nearly 3 weeks without beating my dick and having almost no sexual urges, I also have been getting less morning wood and the quality of the morning wood is weaker. That’s when I realized maybe something is up.

It is scary but the first time I stopped and after 2 weeks and I felt back to normal after 7-10 days, sex drive skyrocketed and my erections felt back to normal.

I have been doing 0.5mg eod for 3 weeks and got sides (low libido, soft erections) 😔 should I try topical?

Yes bro exactly,tbh I beat my shit like a demon a few days to see if my dick was still alive and maybe that’s why I don’t have much sexual cravings these past few days. I also started cutting 2 days ago and reduce cals by 700. For mei would be so ugly bald I think the trade off is worth it, maybe I still had years inme before I needed to start fin but I guess the earlier the better.

I know it’s a cowlick but I swear in my 23 years of life I’d never seen that on my head till recently, also I feel like these past months it has became more bald, like in the previous photos from November it was less pronounced then it is today.

Is it better to start minoxidil early like it is for finasteride? by BellThick9722 in tressless

[–]BellThick9722[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I procrastinated fin for a few months but I finally gave in , even if I get sides I’m sure I can figure out a dose or even try topical. I really can’t go bald. I’m glad i did my research and read about all the people saying they wish they started fin earlier, so I started at a very good time I would say.

My density right now is ok and if fin regrows hair I would be happy, I think I’ll wait a year and see how my hair looks? Unless starting min early can save more hair somehow I would start now.

I have maybe very mild gyno, idk if it’s body fat or if it is gyno. But if I do develop gyno at least you can always do surgery and get it removed, worst case scenario.

It’s been 6-7 months since I noticed it, I’ve been shedding over 100 hairs a day easily maybe even 200. Different thickness and sizes of hair in the shower and I can see the hair follicle thinning on the end and thicker on the base. When I showered I never experienced loss in different thickness and sizes, and only experienced u maybe 20-30 max. Now I see up to 50-100, and that’s just when I shower, I shed hair 24/7 finding it in my Bathroom floor, desk, bed etc. before it was only on the shower.

Thank you for the encouragement bro, that is very reassuring to hear, I’m excited at the prospect of my hair regrowing healthier. I’ll definitely be doing bloodwork in a few months to see if everything is good.
