sandmac Posted October 20, 2021 Share Posted October 20, 2021 51 yr old with essentially a full head of hair. Dr Konior restored my hairline a few years ago. In harsh light I'm noticing diffuse thinning across the top of my scalp and crown. Willing to try Finn to slow or ideally halt my thinning. I've read so many various protocols on dosage. Understanding there are many factors, but that said, what is the lowest dosage that could potentially be best? (i.e.: .25 EOD?) Would an online service like Roman or Himms be a good way to go? Thanks so much for any insights! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member makehairgreatagain Posted October 20, 2021 Senior Member Share Posted October 20, 2021 You'll need to post pictures but you really should contact him and ask for his opinion as he'll be able to write you a prescription. It's suspect you're not on Finasteride already as that's something he discusses with patients. Roman and Hims are both good delivery services for products like that.

sandmac Posted October 21, 2021 Author Share Posted October 21, 2021 Was on Fin post surgery years ago. I recall minor sides but that discomfort could have been due to a varicocele issue I've since had resolved. Looking for further details on success stories of those taking a much reduced dosage of finasteride. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Valued Contributor Gatsby Posted October 23, 2021 Valued Contributor Share Posted October 23, 2021 I'm not a doctor and I agree with discussing this with your surgeon or GP. I'm 54 and I started finasteride well over a year ago. I was taking 1mg a day. After about two months (?) I began experiencing a loss of libido. I had no other side effects. I then discontinued the drug. Two months ago I went back on oral finasteride taking 0.5mg on Monday, Wednesday and Friday. I have recently upped my Friday dose to 1mg. So far I have had no side effects. If I can get to a point where I am able to tolerate 1mg every other day I will stay on this. All the best!
