Hey Guys,
I was on Propecia and Rogaine for many years and had to stop both a few months ago due to an unrelated medical issue. To be specific, I stopped Propecia about 6 months ago and Rogaine about 5 months ago.
I noticed only very slight recession for the first few months until I hit about 3 months after stopping Rogaine. I started shedding really badly for several weeks and I assumed it was caused more from the minoxidil than the Propecia. Over the last few weeks, it seems like the shedding has stopped completely on most days but then out of the blue I'll start shedding heavily again for a day or two. All the hairs I am shedding are thick terminal hairs and I don't see very much miniaturization anywhere on my scalp.
Has anyone else experienced this? I just can't make sense of it.
