I have been using Finasteride and Dutasteride

Any updates so far? I'm also a long time propecia user, I've been using it for the last 12 years with great success, at least I'm not completely bald right now. But about 4 months ago, I thought I could get thicker hair by adding 0.5mg Dut daily, so I've been taking both fin and dut for the last 4 months. Not only did it not do anything, I have a lot of shed, and lost lots of hairs. My balding is becoming apparent now.

I don't know should I continue using both together, I don't know should I stop using dut or continue. I've already taken dut daily for the last 4 months, so if I stop now, will I lose even more hair? That's something called "up regulation" if I'm not mistaken. If I could go back, I would not have taken dut in the first place, but since I've already taken it, I don't know what to do.

Please help. Any advice is greatly appreciated. Thank you.

When you stop taking dut, did you notice any major shed? I can't afford to lose any more hairs. Thank you.

So what happened? Did you keep taking the dut?

Only dut now.

Did you recover from the shed you got after adding dut? How are you doing now?
