I also just found out I have CVG. It's nice knowing I'm not alone here. I have a question that I'm hoping someone might be able to answer.
In addition to CVG m hair is thinning from mpb and I am concerned that my CVG will become more apparent. I am considering jumping on Finasteride to slow the progression. However, I have read that CVG can sometimes be a result of hormonal issues. Do you know if Finasteride could potentially make CVG worse or exacerbate it? I am wondering if you know if this ever happens, as I imagine Finasteride could potentially effect hormonal levels? Before I jump on treatment I would want to make sure this is not a possibility, as I have heard CVG can be progressive. Also, do you know how common it is for CVG to progress? Any help would be greatly appreciated. @Spanker Do you have thoughts on this by chance?
Is this CVG?
