It's been 4 and half months I'm on Finasteride and my hair are shedding all over the scalp. Shedding started in the second month and now I see bunch of hair whenever I touch them. More than Half of the hair that shed are from sides and back.

 

I don;t know what is going on!! I'm thinning in the permanent zones. :(

 

 

P.S

Some of the hair that shed are very small vellus type or thin hair.

The good news is that Finasteride does not cause hair loss. I've been on the drug for more than 18 months and I've got to tell you that I shed every 3-4 months for a couple of weeks. I guess that the hair that you shedd are the weak ones that will be dormant for some time then they will grow stronger and thicker. My advice is stick to the drug for a year and then assess your situation.
