    Default 5 months on fin and shedding again?

    I am getting near to my fifth month taking finasteride and it has already been a roller coaster. I had a big shed for around the two and a half months. The shedding slowed and by the fourth month i noticed a little more thickness in my hair. In just the past few days i have noticed the shedding is now picking up again and my hair feels a little thinner.

    Im just wondering if anyone else has experienced sheds like this where they stop and then start again. Will this new shed be quick and go away in a week or two or should I expect more. Personal experience is all im really looking for. Thanks

    During the four years that I have treating my hair loss I have gone through three periods of shedding. Each time my hair grew back thicker than before.

    Your weak shrunken hair follicles are cycling as they are regaining size and strength. Ride it out.
