Just trying to clarify, u took the 500mg niacin once or for a period of time? And do u think both ur temples and hair are worse or just temples?
Thanks
Edit* just one more thing, so ur hairline/temples was holding until u took niacin?

It was prescribed by my own doctor so yes it was the glaxo dutasteride and its not the holy grail treatment if it was there would be no pattern loss still.
As with most things it has been stated that finasteride and dutas does not work for everyone thats why many are still looking for that cure.

i took it for a 3 month period last year starting around july 11. I subsequently stopped as i had ran out. It was also probably the time when my hairline receeded too and i was attributing it to trx2! i dont know.
I then started it again a couple months back (total of 3months) and also, again noticed recession!
My hair overall was not worse, i didnt notice anything unusual. Just the temple area going back on the left side.
The hair overall was thicker and more volume so there was no cause for concern so i didnt get off the niacin. It was until later when niacin was giveing me some bad sides, weight gain etc had i stopped, and reccession has stopped.

Hey sizzling
Yup am on DUT and Minox as well. In the first few months on TRX2 I had about 3 days when my hair looked pumped followed by 3 or so when it looked worse again.
This strange phenomenon lasted a few months but throughout that time my loss gradually got worse so the effect of a good boost was less profound.
15 or so months in because I have less hair than at the start it's hard to say that I sometimes I think things are better - when they are not overall. I do still get slightly thicker hair somedays than others.
