Hi guys,
I have a question regarding Finasteride results.
I've been on Propecia for exactly a year now (along with Minoxidil) , with mixed result. The bald spot on my crown has shrunk considerably (although the new hair is still thin and "low quality) which is excellent, but my hairline has retreated further (not by much, perhaps a little recession in the temples) and the frontal hair seem to have miniaturized overall.
Is this kind of mixed result common? I know that finasteride is known to work best for crown and little to no help on the hairline, but I'm wondering if it is common to have a case like mine where the result for the crown is great, but the result for the hairline is the opposite.
People talk about the alternative (dutasteride) if finasteride treatment doesn't work. Should I consider finasteride not to be working and switch to dutastride then?
Thx
