Ummm still 0 side effects! but i haven't seen any anything new with hair or shedding, i think this is a mental thing but my hair does feel better but who knows ha? Also have a question. I was wondering if any one knows if taking whey protein could potentially effect hair loss or propecia? Thanks! Peace guys!
          It took me about 8 months to notice a significant difference, it works, no sides here either, 1-mg per day.

            Hey guys! I seriously can't believe it's already been 7 months, man it flew by fast that's awesome! Just wanted to shoot you guys some pics with an update. So far I feel like my hair is still the same but maybe losing density on my hairline. One of the pics below shows it pretty well (when i wake up from a nap haha) but ya let me know what you guys think. Take care guys! Peace!

              Hey guys! Been a while since my last update but just wanted to post some pictures! After the couple months, I've realized that my right temple has receeded significantly more than my right. I think the propecia is holding my left temple. Hopefully it gets better. Peace Guys

                Working at Dr. Cole's office, I see a lot of patients who appear to be having success using Propecia/Avodart. Out patient today in his thirties has excellent hair and has been using Propecia for about seven years. His brother is bald and our patient is seeing us today to fill in some thinning in the crown. He has practically no recession. His mother's father was bald, so he may have just been the fortunate recipient of the better hair gene. He told me there is no other major hair loss in his family. I believe Propecia and Avodart do help. Our patient today mentioned feeling a minor lack of energy as a possible side, but that's it.

                  Umm okay? Well anyways just wanted to let everyone know that I'm creepin on 9 months of being in propecia and it really flew by fast. Couple things I wanted to mention is that 1. Had some small shedding during the process which was expected 2. Never had any problems regarding my boys below the belt 3. I did feel like I was gaining some flab on my chest but it turns out I was just getting fat cause I stopped working out haha 4. Throughout 9 months I think I missed like 2 doses.

                  Just wanted to give my piece on propecia. I intend on taking it for another 5 months to hopefully see optimal results and if not I may add romaine or something else to fight hair loss. Hope my info helps you guys! Peace!

                      Hey dude, it's been going great! I just noticed I neglected this site for so long. I've been mad busy with graduating and moving in with the girlfriend it's been a mess!
                      Updates: To be honest I haven't been paying attention to my hair at all, i guess that's good. But holy crap!!! It's been a year officially today, i think haha. Overall, been satisfied with results. Not much of a change, I guess that either means it didn't work or it's been helping me from not losing more hair. Either way I'm satisfied and don't intend on adding anything to the regime. I simply don't have time to be constantly worrying about my hair. Luckily, I have the best barber out here in Cali so i'm overall happy. I'll upload some pictures tomorrow. Thanks for the support everyone! Peace!

                          That is actually a very good thing for you to do.
                          The old phrase 'Patience is a virtue' is prevalent when it comes to our hair and the application of Fin'.
                          User' your head of hair is great. Finasteride may very well be keeping your hair intact. The density in mine is coming along quite well. Ive been on Finasteride for approx 10 months now.

                            Have you posted photos? I have to say, I'm impressed with the results most men get while on Propecia. We have a patient in today who tried Propecia for a while but stopped because of sexual sides. I suggested he try again with a smaller dose.

                            Most men past 25 aren't up to speed 100% of the time with or without Propecia/Avodart. Now a new gal friend that wants it 6 hours straight could motivate a man to blame any lack of performance on the meds.

                                I look forward to seeing your pics. I think I will wait for the one year mark for my next update too.
