I take finasteride 1mg every other day for a year and just recently noticed that the hairline is thining. What you would think it the best thing I can do now? I would increase your dose to daily rather than every other day. See if that makes a difference with the finasteride. You could add […]

This is a great combination of treatment modalities with good results in a relatively short time. This is especially helped by the microneedlng.
So if tissue levels remain for 6 days, would topical application every 4/5 days be theoretically still somewhat effective? Some amount of finasteride stays in the tissues for more than two weeks after stopping the pill. Daily dosing is the ideal way to build appropriate tissue levels.
I’ve been on fin for 5 years and had great results. Whatever reason my crown is really thinning again, fast. Should I just up and take oral min too Adding oral minoxidil might help as it has a different mechanism of action.
I have been on finasteride for more than 10 years, then I decided just recently to stop it. I lost basically everything in 3 months when I stopped min/fin. I started back 30 days ago is it possible to regain everything? It is possible that some or all of the hair is still there. Good […]
You reported one year of treatment. The photo shows a perfectly normal hairline. The presence of the widow’s peak and the flat hairline to the sides suggests that you have a left-over component of your juvenile hairline still showing. I have seen or treated many men like you. If you want a consultation with me, […]
If half-life of fin is 6-8 hours in the blood but 5-6 days in tissue (scalp) why don’t people apply topical every 3-4 days to minimize systemic? Topical finasteride goes systemic. Perfect Hair Health has shown the relationship between systemic DHT level drops with higher and higher topical finasteride dosages as the effective topical dose […]
Doc, i have a question, Does it happen usually that someone stops reacting to the current dosage and has to move to higher concentrated dosages. Ex, someone stops reacting to 1mg finestride and has to move to 2mg to keep seeing results. I am kinda scared of it, I started with 1mg per day, but […]
Do you think that it is safe taking finasteride and minoxidil at my age? My result are excellent. Speak with your doctor, as I don’t give direct advice over blogs. I suspect that it will be okay. These topicals go systemic, so maybe you would be better off sticking with the oral forms of these […]
Hello Dr Rassman, I’ve had a lot of anxiety over finasteride not haunting my loss, it’s been 14 months since I started treatment and I’m unsure but do feel like my hair is worse than earlier this year. What can I do? Finasteride works, I believe, in 100% of men by either slowing, stopping or […]
In just 3 months, you thickened your forelock and reversed some of the corner recession. This is a great response on these two drugs in just 3 months. Again, young men under 25m generally respond to finasteride.
Fantastic reversal of miniaturization. Because you are 18 years of age, your hair is very sensitive to the benefits of finasteride which easily reverses the miniaturization shown in your photo.
Just 2 months, I noticed I developed mild gynomastia, and am now trying to figure out how to reverse any damage without the need for surgery. I stopped a week ago, and already feel better. I will never touch this drug ever again. If you’re willing to commit to taking pills every day for the rest […]
I have been taking 1mg finasteride tablets for the past couple years. I recently experimented with breaking the tablets in half (I have the white octagonal tablets), and my side effects went away. However, my hair also began falling out after 2 weeks. Does breaking the tablets in half affect how they are absorbed? I […]
This is an older man, as you can see, because of his gray hair. Finasteride works nicely in some older men. A 74-year-old friend of mine grew his hair back similar to this man’s hair growth when his doctor put him on Proscar (5mg finasteride) for his prostate. Proscar is 5mgs of finasteride.
