    When to expect regrowth from propecia

    Ive been on propecia for around 5 months now. I continue to lose about 10 hairs a day, sometimes more oppose to 40 or more pre propecia.
    Ive been wondering if its still possible for me to get some sort of regrowth, Im 18 approching NW2 and there isn't much hope out there atm.
    What are your experiences ?

    If you can keep the hair that you have you are doing very well. Don’t be greedy, be thankful that Propecia is working and slowing your hair loss. I was about your age when I started and it was one of the best things that I ever did for myself.
    Here's my story.
    Eleven years ago back in 1998 I was an 18 year old freshman in college and I was losing my hair. I had been losing it since about 16, I think but it was becoming very noticeable when I got to college. Styling my hair was nightmare and I was starting to get the comments from my friends. It came to a head one night when I was at

      Main objective with taking propecia/proscar is to STOP further loss, not regrow. Some regrow and respond well - you will know if you are one of these lucky guys at month 8-12.

        Finasteride is only to stop hair loss. If you want any regrowth you have to boost your regimen with Minox or something else. Usually just using one hair loss treatment will not be enough to regrow hair. And at the end of the day, even if you're on both, it's not promised you'll regrow anything. But like others have said, just be thankful that it's slowing down/stopping your hair loss until something better comes out. Which is soon hopefully[2013-2014?]
