My DR. Won't Prescribe Avodart

[Matthew]

I'm in Orange County, CA
I have an hmo, my dr continues to prescribe my finasteride which I have been using for 10 yrs before I met him
but I brought up avodart and he said no....
finasteride isn't slowing my hairline anymore
Anyone know of a dr I can switch to in Orange County that cares...???

what dose do you take?
I held for years on .25 then started the hairloss again.
I upped to 1.0 but it didn't help
Then I tried 1.25 proscar and i'm doing awesome again.. and i'm 43 years old.

how long were u on .25

how long were u on .25

you know i don't even know anymore.
i started a long time ago on 1.25 mg for a couple of months then went to .25
and that held me for many many years.

when i started to notice the .25 wasn't working i bumped it up to 1mg

didn't work for me but i'm getting great results now with 1.25

i don't care what anyone says about finasteride dose doesn't matter

my hair is the proof for me and know because i see it everyday. dose matters.


if it wasn't for finasteride, i'd be bald for sure or way into the high norwood.

hairfall started at 19 and i'm 43 now with a great head of hair.

Either way your insurance likely will not pay for these medications. Your doctor must not be comfortable prescribing medication that are off formulary (not clinically indicated for hair loss). There are several HT doctors in the Orange County area.

I don't think any of my doctors would prescribe me dutasteride for hair loss either. Not even going to bother asking, even though I want dutasteride for hair loss.

I'm tempted to just buy it online from some legit online pharmacy.
