I tested "negative" for the short allele CAG>22


I have a CAG allele of 27

according to their literature i have a "70% change of only a SLIGHT response to finisteride"



its one worst thing after another in my life. First I lose my job, now this sh**

I've been on propecia for a year and it did nothing.

Currently, I am on both propecia and avodart. I dont care about the side affects of combining them. But let me tell you, they do nothing. My hair continues to fall out at a constant rate.

I count 20-25 in the shower daily.

my blood DHT is 14 low (normal is 25-75)

Most doctor's would say that it is normal to lose up to 100 hairs a day, even if you are not going bald. I would say that losing 20-25 hairs in the shower is below the average amount that someone loses.

I really dont believe in the 100 day hair loss. If this was true, my whole house would be filled with hair every where as I live with 7 people!! I lose 25 in the shower...this is what I count on my hands when shampooing my hair for 5 minutes. I lose 2 more when combing my hair afterwards, and maybe 3 more when first wetting my hair. So 30 that I count total.........I doubt there is another 70 that I lost out there to make a 100, because believe me, I'm very vigilant when I lose some hair and I would def have noticed losing 70 more hairs.


My rule of thumb for everyone: If your losing less than 10 hairs in the shower, your golden. Any more, I would worry like crazy.

You can always add something like fluridil/spironolactone to your regimen. It really should do a lot of good.
