Those of you who run and use Finesteride as well...

Just curious?I took some time off of my daily 1mg use of Fin for a couple of years. About 6 months later, I started to notice my hair getting a little thinner. I'm going to start using it again. I'm just curious how Fin has treated you guys in the past. I actually use 1.25mg ED (used to) as the tabs I get are 5mg?and I just break them into 4. How has it worked for you? Some say it helps thicken their hair, others say it just helps them keep what they have, I read a few guys say it stopped their receding scalp line from getting worst. Thoughts?

Guys,

Please go to the PSL subforum and view the sticky in health and wellness. Once in the sticky, scroll down to my Proprecia article.

I've used fin 1mg for over a year. My hair was receding and my hair was really thin in the front. On month 6 I noticed my hair was a thicker, by 1 year my hair came back almost completely. I recommend anyone to use it, don't believe on the side effects. Just don't take it for so long, take breaks like everything else. I also didn't have any side effects while on it.

I did a great deal of research, also got on to a forum and asked a lot of guys what works and what does not.

1) 1-1.25mg of fin ED
2) Nioxin shampoo kit...there are 3 bottles in the kit
3) Nioxin "booster"
4) Biotin vitamins
5) Minoxidil (add if above do not yield results wanted)

I have not yet started using these products again, but will do so after my next short run. Some have reported a drastic change in 3 months time....most say it takes up to 6 months. The Minoxidil should be the last resort and really only if you are having big issues....if you start using it, you need to continue to use it. I ordered a 3 month supply off of Amazon...a few companies make it, it's all the same shit so just get whatever brand is cheaper. They make a weaker woman's dose as well. The Nioxin has I think 6 different kinds of kits to pick from....depending on what your hair is like. If you still have hair and it's just thinning a bit and is not as full/thick, go with number ONE. Each number describes what kind of hair it should be used to be treated with. I got a lot of info from a this guy I work with at my local gym, he has hair like Fabio...and uses all the above minus the Minoxidil....

My doctor has had me on 5 mg. each day fortwo months to help a little prostate problem . I lost a lot of hair from chemo eight years ago. My hair has improved as far as quantity and appearance. Thank you for this thread. I now see a need to reduce amount periodically.

Finasteride being a 5 alpha reductase inhibitor reduces your T levels and thus (DHT) which is what causes you to loose you hair. You gain hair but loose your sex drive?
