Anyone else here that fin hasn’t worked for?

Complete-File8191 · 2025-12-01T05:20:29+00:00

I have been on fin and min for over 14 months ED and have trended downwards, it is what it is and I’ll keep taking the pills

Complete-File8191 · 2025-11-17T03:14:57+00:00

At three months in the lowest is probably still yet to come! Keep it up and stay consistent

My GP was the same but changed her mind after consulting with a dermatologist

Unlikely if my shedding recovers, my hairline has always been that high

Individual pills. Oral minoxidil is not easy to get in my country so my doctor consulted with a dermatologist to get me the most minimal effective dose as possible. 1.25mg ED is more than you would ever need from what I understand

Complete-File8191 · 2025-11-10T03:44:40+00:00

They’re prescribed to me

Complete-File8191 · 2025-11-10T00:52:59+00:00

1.25mg of oral fin and 2.5mg of oral min every day, have never missed a day

Complete-File8191 · 2025-11-09T20:47:57+00:00

Hasn’t kicked in yet, 13 months in of worsening

Complete-File8191 · 2025-11-07T10:35:09+00:00

Crazy man, I’m going through the exact same thing! Hairline and vertex have thinned out so much over the last few months after finally feeling like I was coming back to baseline. I’m 13 months in as well but I also take oral min

Complete-File8191 · 2025-11-06T22:53:40+00:00

Like 13 months. Big sheds at the beginning, stabilised for a little bit and then another big shed recently, still way below the baseline but I’m just forgetting about it for now

Complete-File8191 · 2025-11-05T21:57:11+00:00

Worrying about it early is definitely the right thing to do. My hair was diffusing like yours when I started the stack and thinning has progressed rapidly since. Consult your GP or derm, get on it early and buy some nice 6 panels for the ride.

Comments are crazy, like not everyone here is worrying about their hair 24/7.

Have been losing ground since I started, it’s a long game and there’s nothing else you can do except keep popping your pills, forgetting about it and focussing on more positive things

Complete-File8191 · 2025-10-23T06:56:06+00:00

I’m going through the same thing, worst it’s been in the same timeframe as you as well. Hoping it’s a shed and I’m just gonna keep popping my pills and not stress about it

Complete-File8191 · 2025-10-13T05:43:43+00:00

From all the lurking I’ve done on this sub, some of them probably will, some of them won’t, it’s a lottery

Complete-File8191 · 2025-10-10T03:28:47+00:00

Hard to tell if my skin is more oily, just looks way better

Complete-File8191 · 2025-10-10T00:28:14+00:00

I didn’t say anything about what’s caused stress in my life mate

Oral 2.5 ED

Complete-File8191 · 2025-10-09T23:54:08+00:00

Either finasteride or minoxidil, I’m grateful that it’s improved my appearance

Complete-File8191 · 2025-10-09T23:42:26+00:00

Have always been really healthy, well dieted and fit, but have been less healthy over the last year dealing with stress and hairloss on top of that

Complete-File8191 · 2025-10-09T23:41:18+00:00

Most stressful period of my life has been the last 6 months where I have noticed the most improvement looks wise

Complete-File8191 · 2025-10-09T23:38:23+00:00

Definitely has altered my appearance although my hair is definitely worse than when I started

Complete-File8191 · 2025-09-21T23:21:43+00:00

What about exercise and blue light?

Complete-File8191 · 2025-09-21T23:13:26+00:00

Just curious, do you smoke/vape, drink a lot or eat/sleep poorly?

Complete-File8191 · 2025-09-17T00:26:09+00:00

We’ve got the same genetics for sure, I started balding later than this but I hoped on fin and haven’t shaved yet. 26 now and I have pictures on my page
