Finateride no results after 9 months
So I’ve been subscribed to HIMS to get finasteride and DHT shampoo for about 9 months. I am religious with my adherence to one pill per day. I’m pretty good with the shampoo apart from when I travel.
I started in about December of 2018, with foam minoxidil. However, I never liked using it as it left my hair sticky and also I felt incredibly bloated when I used it. So I stopped using that in maybe January/February and stuck to just finasteride. Since taking it I have not stopped losing hair, in fact I’ve noticed my bald spot in the back maybe staying the same, but my front hairline severely retreating and thinning out. Almost aggressively so to where I started wearing hats at the gym because when I sweat it’s very obvious and unattractive.
At this point, is finasteride a dud and should i just consider surgery? It’s embarrassing and I lost a lot of self confidence over the past 5 years from this, am willing to try anything but minoxidil i has used in the past as well and it didn’t work for me either.
I’m just about 36 and ready to throw in the towel to ever having hair again, the problem is I know I’d be very unattractive as a shaved headed guy so I’m hanging on hope that I can at least hang on to what I have left, as opposed to the “new growth” that I see espoused all over the place in the HIMS ads that just piss me right off.
Any thoughts would be appreciated!
