Propecia for Diffuse Thinning?

Is Propecia effective for one such as myself who has “diffuse” thinning all over the top scalp? I’m 19 and I been on the drug for a little over 3 months and I still shed is this normal? Should I give it more time to work?

Some people thing that in a limited number of individuals, the cycling of the hair growth moves in and out of its anogen phase. Prior to the anogen phase, there is often hair loss. This means that the loss may be an indication that you will have a good response when anogen comes into play. Without seeing the miniaturization of your hair under a densitometer (microscope) and your particular hair loss pattern, there is no way to answer this question. I generally like to count hairs, those that are miniaturized and those that are full normal hairs. That tells me where you are starting from when you go on Propecia. Good measurements of hair counts and miniaturization tells me a great deal about your response and puts good science and diagnosis in my hands. You need a good hair transplant doctor or Dermatologist to evaluate your hair loss pattern to see if Propecia is the right medication for your condition.
