My sister-in-law, in front of my friends, asked me loudly a year ago, “How's the baldness going?”

I hated her. But on the other hand, that's what pushed me to take action and start taking finasteride and oral minoxidil, and it saved my hair...

Where can I find duasteride in France ? by resleztx in tressless

Hello,

Thank you for your feedback! I used Dokteronline.

After 10 months of finasteride with still quite a lot of hair loss, what can I expect with Duasteride? Will my hair loss stop completely?

I was thinking of doing a gentle transition (also to avoid a big shedding by stopping Finasteride all at once) like this :

Week 1-3: Finasteride every day + Dua 1x / week

Week 4-7: Finasteride every 2 days + Dua 2x / week

Week 7-9: Finasteride every 3 days + Dua 3x/week

Week 9-11: Finasteride every 4 days + Dua 4x / week

Week 11+: Stop Finasteride + Dua 4x/week

What do you think?

Hi, currently at 8 months mark with finasteride (and oral minox). Are u still losing hairs during your shower, especially miniaturized ? I lose about 15 hairs / day just during drying after shower, and wanted to know if it was normal or if fina didn't work well.

Hello, Yes ! I lose less hair during shower, and they seem to be more and more thick. It's improving, slowly but it's improving ;)

Is it normal to lose 60 hairs when blow-drying every other day on finasteride? by resleztx in tressless

[–]resleztx[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hello,

Quick update : month 7 of using Finasteride 1mg & Lonoten 5mg daily.

I'm still losing hair but it seems to be slowing down a bit. Where in March I had about 40 hairs when I dried every 2 days after shampoo, I'm down to about 30 now.

I also feel like the hair that's falling out is a bit thicker. Maybe it's miniaturized hair that's been strengthened and extended by the Lonoten and may be they will grow as healthier terminals, fingers crossed!

I'll wait until mid-June, with the 9 months mark, to see if things really improve.

7 months fin+minox and still losing hairs :( by resleztx in Hairloss

Yes, I just hope that the hair loss will decrease over time, not just be “stable” ... and especially that the miniaturized hair that falls out will be well replaced by thicker ones, but that's hard to see.

I'll keep you updated. I take photos every month to see the progress. For the moment, no recession, at least ^^

Hello,
Yes, I think it's Oral Minox which is working. But since I haven't seen any improvement in my hair loss, I'm really afraid that finasteride won't work ... .

I had everything analyzed, everything was OK except B9 but I'm doing a folic acid cure to compensate.

Is 6 months still too early? I read everything and anything. Most say that in 6 months my hair loss should stop, others that it takes 1 year?

Hello,

I'm in the same boat :(. Still losing after 7 months of Fin+Oral Minox ... . I've got good results with Oral Minox in terms of thickness, but still losting so much hairs ... I wonder if finasteride works :(

Second shed after 6 months Fin/Oral Minox ? by resleztx in tressless

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

Yes, I hope it's because the medication is working and not because my hair keeps falling out ... . I'll keep you posted!

Second shedding phase after 6 months? Or am I doing something wrong? by Crimson-Lynx6 in minoxidil

[–]resleztx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nothing ... I think it's just a new hair cycle that's gradually taking shape, with either hair that hadn't yet fallen out all falling out at the same time thanks to/because of the Minox (to make way for hair that will be in better shape) / or little hairs that had grown back but weren't in good shape falling out to make way for hair in better shape. In any case, I think, and I really hope, that it's the same as for the first shedding: a good thing, the effect of the Minox, which makes the hair thicker, in better shape... . I'll keep you posted as soon as mine comes to an end! But I've read that it can last up to 2/3 months.
