I am a week short of 180 days in and seems like my major shed has finally stopped. Hair loss has slowed down a lot and seeing vellus hair along the hairline. Also had my DHT levels checked about a month ago and with a reference range of 16-79 my reading was <5ng/dl.
Below is from the Bernstein Medical – Center for Hair Restoration:
"As with Finasteride, patients taking Dutasteride should be on the medication for one year or longer before its effects in preventing hair loss and re-growing hair can be accurately assessed. Dutasteride most likely takes up to one year or more to exert its full effects in both preventing hair loss and in re-growing hair.
During the first six months on Dutasteride, one may note some thinning of one’s existing hair. This may be due to either progression of your hair loss before Dutasteride has had a chance to work, or some shedding of miniaturized hair that makes way for the new healthy hair to grow. It is important to be patient during this period. You should continue the medication for at least one year before you and your doctor can assess its benefits."

3 months for me, but it takes 12 months or more + you should also use Rogaine. Dermarolling won't hurt either.

i haven't seen any regrowth at all, not even one vellus hair on the temples/hair line. Scalp is very itchy still and have about 20 hairs on my hand when i put minox on front
i would had thought if it's working id have seen some regrowth by now.

How long have you been on it? Dut that is.
What are the pills called? Where did you get them?
And have you had your Dht levels checked.
So many variables here, man.

nearly 7 months. I Was on propecia for 18 months previously.
it's genuine avodart bought from a registered uk pharmacy. Not had any blood test but am seeing a derm about my itch soon.

Could be the brand of minox you are using? Grnx I use had the same effect.
And as PW said, wait at least 12 months before seriously looking for regrowth. Saying that, I still check in the mirror everyday. Lol.

i'm in a similar boat man, but only just started dut about 40 days ago. my hair is shedding pretty bad and looking pretty horrific. hopefully things will improve soon, but i'm not really gonna freak out until this time next year.
