On propecia 6 months and still losing hair
I am 28 years old. About 2 years ago my hair line started to thin. Six months ago I started taking propecia. I know propecia is only FDA approved to treat hair loss on the crown of your head but my doctor recommenced I get on it. He also told me it should help slow my hair loss. 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?

Don't mean to freak you out, but I lost my hairline on Propecia for the first year. On minoxidil as well.

I was already freaked out about my hair loss a while ago. I was losing it slowly i am just wondering can propecia cause more harm then good when it comes to preventing hair loss
-
its doubtful that its not helping. you should take pictures every three months so u can check your progress. also where are u getting your propecia from?
-
That sounds kind of scary. I just started taking Propecia three days ago.

I buy it at CVS. I am 100 percent sure i am losing more hair. I have before and after photes. let me look for my photes i think i had them on here some place

propecia only works in the crown on most people...it rarely works in the front

Is propecia the only treatment you are on at the moment? It is important to mention these things...

My hairloss started at my hairline about 4 years ago and I've been on propecia for about 2 and a half. It's has completely stopped my recession...knock on wood. But during the first few months I shed like hell. I suggest you keep taking it. If your not having any side effects I can't see it doing more harm than good. Good luck.

For the first year? Did your hairline grow back after the end of that year?
