same here
I have been on propecia exactly 9 months today. I shed like crazy the first 4-5 months and everybody told me new and stronger hair will grow back. That hair newer grew back.
When I compare pictures from 9 months ago I'm definitely worse off. My hairline is much worse. My crown was much better 9 months ago. I can still shed up to 40-50 hairs just by brushing my hair in the sink.
I don't know what to believe anymore. I'm too afraid to quit the thing because I have heard that will accelerate the hairloss. So many people can't just imagine things, maybe for some it not only does not work, it makes things worse ...

I’m sorry to hear that Propecia has not worked out for you yet, but I have read of people who don’t start to see positive results until after 12 months. Who knows, you might be one of these people? I hope everything starts getting better for you soon.

Since I have started taking propecia my hair loss has been rapid and obvious. Has anyone else has this experience. Should i continue to take it or stop?
How is your situation now DCman?

Hey bro,
Not sure if it's been said but takes about a year for the drug to kick in. Then you won't regain much hair but it will dramatically slow down the loss.
As far as the already lost soldiers, I'd recommend getting an FUE hair transplant procedure to touch up your front. Leaves no scar and once it's implanted. You can buzz in future and will still re-grow. That's what I chose and was the best decision of my life. Just choose your Doc carefully, do research.
