Hi all,
I’ve been taking 1mg finasteride daily since October of 2021. Up until then I had been using topical minoxidil. I kept using a regiment of both until December 2022 when I stopped using minoxidil cause it seemed like the fin had effectively stabilized my hair loss.
However, since May I’ve entered a period of consistent shedding similar to the initial sheds I was undergoing pre-fin and min.
I know there’s typically cycles of shedding on finasteride but it’s coming up on four months now. Is this a normal length for a period of shedding or is the finasteride losing its effectiveness?
