Finasteride questions [22 years old]
Hello guys!
I´ve been using finasteride for about 8-9 months when my hair loss really accelerated badly. The thing is that I got alot of new vellus hair all over my scalp that is way thinner than my terminal hair (ofc).
I´ve been losing my hair for about 5 years and went from NW2/3 to a NW4/5 in a year.
My current regimen:
- Minoxidil 1x/dag (went from 2x/day to 1x/day cause of itch and bad scalp)
- Finasteride ~0,5-1mg/day
- MSM
- Hair supplement 3-5 caps/day (Biotin, L-lysin, niacin etc.)
What do you guys think, is it possible to regaine some of the hair if I keep with my regimen or atleast turn some of the vellus hair into terminal?

Just give it time, I got Vellus hair around month 2-3, and it wasn't until recently it started to grow more, I'm into month 6 at the moment, have no clue how much thicker it will get but give it time, all there is to it. If you do the "big 3 " or some of them at least it isn't much else to do but give it time.

Try to get DHT bloodtests to make sure fin is doing its job

Thanks for the anwer guys!
I´m going to keep with my regimen atleast a year from now. But the problem is that my libido is lower since pre-finasteride but it might aswell be mental (depression now and then)
I´m going to talk with mine local health center regarding "DHT bloodtest"

Good plan bro.
Your doctor/clinic may not want to give you the test. Sometimes DHT is considered a specialized test for those with prostate issues. If they refuse at first tell them you are on finasteride and experiencing adverse effects!
