Hey man love your channel but I have a question , I know that Finasteride takes at least 3 months to show results but should the hairloss get stabilised after first taking it ? Or is it possible to continue to thin at first and then stabilise ? Because I had been taking Finasteride for 2 months and the thinning isn't particularly stopping it might be slowing it down though I'm not sure , or is it just not strong enough for me ?
@@Castromany it is possible to thin at first (especially by guys who get initial shock loss). Some guys don´t get it though. You´ll know better after 9-12 months.
Hi Matt...are all of those patients ONLY taking fin? Could they be taking rogaine etc?
@@MrDeceptacon88 Yes, only Fin.
I'm taking 1mg, 3 times a week. Can see a little bit of scalp, not a lot. Do you think it will fill out or has to be 7 times a week? I'm 41 and not have much hairloss but started a year or 2 ago
I'm 3 days short of taking finasteride for 4 months, and I take it with also Minoxidil as well. I'm watching these videos to hype me up. I've seen my crown slowly get a little darker. I hope to see results for my hairline soon. Hair loss has been a nightmare these last few years. Every day its all I can see. I want to feel comfortable with what i see in the mirror
Bro im having the same problem ... just got some finastride..can you drop your IG i need some guidance
I'm 53yrs old. I started shedding hair when I was 21. It shook my world. I'm very thin on top. I've kept baby vellis hairs throughout my scalp for years due to on and off treatment over the year's. Now I'm using a dr pen micro needle set at 1.5mm. I bought loticane and apply to my scalp to numb as much as possible. I needle entire scalp til it's slightly bleeding. First I use alcohol on cotton pads to clean scalp of oils then needle. I wipe treated scalp again afterwards with alcohol again. 10-15 minutes later I apply minoxidil on scalp. About 4-5 hours later I apply coconut cooking grease. It's in a plastic container bought from Sam's. Just a finger dipped in and rubbed on scalp for moisturizer. Coconut organic oils are great on dry scalp from using alcohol to cleanse scalp. I have a laser comb and laser devise to help regenerate regrowth 3-4 times weekly. I also use a high frequency wand that emits a mild stimulating shock to scalp. Google high frequency scalp stimulation. I started finasteride a couple days ago. 3 months supply using goodrx pharmacy card cost me 89.00. 3 months!! I take saw palmetto and biotin also daily. Yes I'm hitting male pattern baldness hard. I see alot of white vellus hairs coming through. Being I've been balding for over 35yrs. I don't expect a miracle. I'm confident in who I am. I look at all the cripple people in the world. Children born with no limbs. Cancer patients. I'm blessed beyond blessed. But, if I can get half of what I lost. I'd be thrilled. If I can be of help. Email me.
Update?
You can buy from Boots or Superdrug you can do the prescription online via their websites and have it delivered
@sdgs sons, boots, super drug
On average fin increases hair density with 10% and increases the weight of the average hair with 35%. Combing these numbers you can expect up to 50% more hair mass if you are on fin which is not bad!
I've only been on it for a little over a month and I've already got new hairs growing! Hope it continues!!!
Did you recognize any side effects?
@@dereinetyp2120 I've been taking finasteride for about 2 weeks and a half weeks as of right now i dont notice any side effects especially my sex drive but my previous girlfriends say im a nymphomaniac so maybe it has lowered it but to a normal level
everyone has sideeffects, just depends on how strong.
@@sparkstep7444 I'm on 5mg/day from past 3 months
And the results are 🔥
My hairline is receding Would you recommend this ?
They really should do a simple #4 buzz cut just before the photos for a proper comparison
Exactly! it’s like they are trying to hide the true results!
You don't understand enough about it. The results for those who have been following this for a long time are visible.
I’m 21. I’m not thinning. But I’m starting this stuff. I don’t ever want to worry about it
agreed brother
Updates?
are you stupid?
@@andrzejszpak688he went bald. norwood reaper came when he was sleeping
I'm 54 and just started noticing that my hair was really getting thin. I'm hoping I'm not too late. I'm taking 1 mg every other day for a while until I make sure of no side effects. It might even help my prostate which would hurt.
These results look really encouraging. Id say im a Norwood 1.. very early on in my hairloss but its definitely happening.. I guess starting to take finasteride now would be a sensible idea
do it bro
If you caught it very early you could benefit from using small doses.
@@JustPlaqohh thanks for the advice man
Bro the earlier you catch it, the more hair you’ll keep and more you’ll be able to regrow! do it right now, it would be good if you’re sure you’re going bald soon. Catch it lacking before it catches you!
@@santanalarkin6118 how do I get it? Do I have to go to my primary doctor? Or do I need to a dermatologist?
Only problem with some of these pictures is that hair length is not the same
I’ve been on finasteride for almost about 10 years now.. started taking it when I was 21, now I’m almost 31.. it does make a big difference but you must know you need to catch your hair loss somewhat early otherwise finasteride won’t make a huge difference. (It’ll only stop further hair loss from the hair you already have, so the early you catch it the better) I’ve found in my 10 years of taking it, I’ve Plato from gains.. now my next step will be a FUT hair transplant just to fill in my thinner areas while remaining on the medication
Have you got married? Have child? Any problem in long run? Which brand?
@@Magicmobi yes.. I’m married with 2 very healthy kids. Those side effects are very rare. And the brand is just generic.. I think it’s called “APO - Finesteride”
@@Tommytoolsqueezer God bless them ❤️
Would you say that finasteride has been manageable the past 10 years? I'm 19 right now and I am considering taking it long term
What quantity do you take?
Awesome video Matt . I think It's very nice and informative to see , for starters , what kind of results they can expect using finasteride only . Cheers .
Seeing as these guys are great responders, could you imagine how much better their results would be if they also included Minoxidil and dermaroller along with Finasteride!
Minoxidil is not good If you using fin and dermaroller then Its best
@@pankajparkash1234 minoxidil works by itself though, I’m 2 months in and growing new hairs. Good responder so I don’t need to derma-roll yet. But I know what you mean, I need finasteride to actually stop the balding.
RU58841 is also a phenomenon all product. Google "ru58841 results"
@@timharper4246 Some of the best results I've seen with any hair loss treatment are from HRT. Males transitioning to become female. They have regrown bald heads. Problem is, no man will ever go that route...unless of course, they are transitioning lol

Thank you! This makes me feel more confident about finding out about this and having my 1mg coming in next week. Wish me a positive journey!

@@genshingt7792 Honestly I haven’t really experienced any side effects that are noticeable
outstanding before and afters!
god praise the finasteride!!
Thank you for taking the time to make this video. Is there a benefit to taking finasteride with minoxidil? The results I’ve seen are only finasteride. What do you recommend someone start with. My problem area is my hairline. Nothing crazy, YET, but I want to be proactive. Also at this point taking oral finasteride would be a lifetime medication right?
Finasteride actually works. I wish I had started earlier and I wish you could see my impressing results. After using minoxidil for years I decided to try it and it’s the only thing that actually works for me. I think minoxidil has help some but with finasteride I have definitely seen better results
thanks for sharing!
Did you get off the minoxidil?
Finasteride addresses the root of the problem (DHT killing follicles), minoxidil just helps with the growth process.
Still on Fines ? Got satisfied results ?
Finasteride actually treats the underlying issue. I literally outwitted my dermatologist to get a prescription lol. She had no idea what she was talking about saying that minoxidil is what I needed. If anything it’s better to start finasteride first, then in a couple years if you still need more gains, to hop on minoxidil
A lot of 30 year olds in this video and that makes me ecstatic. Ive been progressively shedding since i was 16 and I genuinely thought I was gonna be completely bald by now, but Ive been on Manoxodyl since about 23 and have held onto a surprising amount. But when I turned 29 my hairline started to run away from my eyebrows and the Manoxodyl stopped doing it's thing. Started Finasteride yesterday and buzzed my head. MPB won the battle but hasn't won the war yet 💪 stay strong kings!
I've been applying a 0.5% topical finasteride and 3% minoxidil solution to my scalp twice a day for 4 months and mirconeedling for 1 and a half . I was shedding about 20+ hairs when shampooing ( I take a shower every morning) and many throughout the day before using it. Most of these hairs were small hairs (3cm or less) even though the hair on the top of my head is quite long. I also have some recession of my temples, my hairline itself has not gone back so much but the temples are miniaturised. (In general my hairloss is not that bad I'd say I'm a Norwood 2). Now after 4 months I have seen no improvement and I'm shedding the same amount of hairs if not more. (This morning I counted 30 more or less.) I have now started oral finasteride (1.25 mg per day). I'm 20 years old and I started noticing my hair loss at 18. I have a good bunch of before and after pictures I've taken over this time. And id say my hairline has receded about 1cm over this time period. Any thoughts on this?
@@pod7062 It's false to say that oral finasteride is flat out better than topical. Topical finasteride is at least as effective as the oral version which studies have shown. It's all about lowering the level of DHT present in the scalp. By applying finasteride directly to the treatment area more DHT is suppressed compared to systemic suppression. Topical finasteride can also be combined with minoxidil which is an added bonus.
@@RegensDominor Hey. Agree, oral fin is not “flat out better” - if you read my comment I did not say that, although understand is could be taken this way. Do you happen to have the references to the studies you mention? Would be interesting to see as I’ve not seen any that state topicals are better. However, I do believe oral fin is superior at moment but willing to change my mind. Application of topical is an issue in my opinion, consistency of placement on the same areas, incongruent absorption to the skin and less convenient hence more often missing days etc. Plus most people’s hair loss will to some extent effect all hair on the head, I.e the sides and back will decrease in density with miniaturisation occurring which, unless you are covering your entire head with topical will not prevent. Pills are easy to pop. I understand both lower DHT. I agree minoxidil can be combined for greater efficacy. I’ve updated my meds since my original reply. 1mg oral fin, 0.65mg oral minox both daily and 0.25 mg dutasteride once weekly. What’s your protocol?
Update??
I lose more than 200-250 hairs in a day since 1.5 years and I am 17..
I Think baldness before 25 is way too aggressive to actually being able to fight it in long term; not sure though; but look at these pictures and usually goes balding in their 20's have lower results than begin to go bald after 30
I just upped my 0.5 fin daily to 1 MG daily after 3 months. I have to admit that the 1 mg def already feels like my hair is responding more. But I’m feeling a little weird, idk if it’s nocebo but a general ball ache and low libido. If this is all I have for sides then I’ll be fine. I’m gonna stay on 1 mg for now
stay on it, you will muscle through it in 2 months and the sides will go away.
Simp Jones what is nocebo?
Thanks
@@benchabanehocine7809 it means imagining something that doesn’t exist, it’s all in your head. I lot of people that think that they have sides when using finasteride are having a nocebo effect. They already thought that they will get sides before even starting finasteride. The mind if pretty powerful, only about 2%-5% of finasteride users actually get severe sides effects, most are just having a nocebo effect.
@@kingsultantv8332 thank u.
By the way, is dudastride safer than fin?
Again, thank u
@@benchabanehocine7809it’s safe for the most part , but it’s side effects profile is higher than finasteride . I think there’s a 10%-15% chance you will get sides. I will advise that you should try finasteride for a year first to see if it works, if it works then no need to use dutasteride. If the finasteride isn’t as affective then you can switch in a year time to dutasteride. Don’t use it every day though. Use the dutasteride 3x a week for the first 5months then if you don’t have side effects you can then use it every day. Dutasteride blocks 90% of your DHT while finasteride blocks 70%. But for most people dustasteride isn’t needed, finasteride should be able to do the job.
36 years old. Taking finasteride for almost 4 years now. Hairline stayed the same as it was when I was 20. Amazing stuff. I get two showers a day/ wash hair with only water once a day. Never used shampoo in a year.
Style my hair with aloe Vera gel only. Another amazing product. Research benefits of aloe for hair.
How did you maintain your hairline for 16 years I'm 20 now any tips please 😢
@@deepuganesh3487 Hey buddy, basically what I said in my initial comment. I don’t use shampoo at all. Definitely over a year. Hair is full and healthy. Research “benefits of aloe Vera for hair”. Amazing stuff.

If anyone is teen or early 20s dont take finesteride, my hair transplant dr said I couldn't use it as I'm hormones ain't done with my body yet and I'm 22, probably 24 or 25 is best age to start but I guess it different from person to person I guess, it's your body, just be safe about it.

@@exalter2739 yes.. my crown doesn’t feel tight/sore anymore and there is a tiny bit of new hair growing on my temples
I haven’t had any hair loss, that’s for sure
I'd personally say some of these results are down to styling the hair different, to look like there's been a change.
Hair is longer in some photos. Keep the top longer. It helps a lot
You don't understand enough about it. The results for those who have been following this for a long time are visible.
@@-goose5991 Nah, even if you keep your hair longer, your hair will grow thin due to DHT and cannot cover your scalp.
That's usually the case with these photos
Yep. There is no cure for hair loss. That’s why hair transplant cost thousands rather then 30 bucks for 3 month supply of meds
Matt, I started Finasteride 2 months ago 1mg (Mon/Wed/Fri). I haven't noticed any sides. Do you suggest I increase my dosage up to 1mg/day?
He is not a medical doctor to suggest something man ask a medical expert
How have the gains been on a low dose?
Finasride only help to those who have male pattern baldness cause of dht 👍
Have you seen any improvement on your hair?
Has it gone thicker than before and lastly, any side effects?
I got my fin 1mg/day for 1month today ( I suggested to take every other day but the doc went ahead and prescribed everyday) . I had receeded temples and slight thinning on top, maybe a NW3 early phase. Im 20yr old now. Ill keep updating with results
@@gbaby6774 I’m 22 as well, I’m starting to thin out and I’m trying to figure out the best solution, what are the side effects? And do you think this is the best solution?

I will come back again here after 3months as 4month is a standard for fin to kick in. Be sure to share and brain storm here i ll try to reply if i notice. Gudluck man.
So would you advise people to use minoxadil until they see favorable results then stop using minoxidil and switch to finasteride to maintain it? Or just use finasteride or use both?
Im 22 years old and i want to take finastride do u recomend it?
Как успехи ?
Are this results from finasteride alone??or in combination with other treatments:)
Fin only
hey matt...i got no results from minoxidil so stopping it would still cause hairfall....or is it only the regrown hair that falls off after stopping minoxidil?
Only the hair that is grown due to minoxidil will shed, this is why they are sometimes referred to as minoxidil dependent hairs
yep.....got no hair fall gain after stopping it......yet norwood 3 soon😓
Did you experience hair fall after stopping minoxidil? I have been using minoxidil for 9 months now and got no result at all. If I stop using it now, will my existing hair fall off?
Hello, can finasteride regrow lost hair without minoxidil, because minoxidil gives me side effects and I stopped using it ?
I wouldn't trust any of these pics. I'm not saying they're not true, but I think it's important to have realistic expectations. If Fin stops stabilises your condition, I would take that as a win. Anything on top of that is a bonus.
These pics are used for marketing and sales purposes...assuming that they are genuine and haven't been photoshopped or manipulated with lighting, they will have chosen the best candidates...some may be 'super responders'.
For an unlucky 20% of patients, Fin does not work at all, and not many people disclose that fact.

Hi Matt, how do you open that blue finasteride bottle gel you bought from the Italian pharmacy? Seriously, I got the same one and I cannot open it. I took out the blue cap and turned the bottom wheel but nothing comes out....
you have to turn the wheel many times. The substance is only like half of the container.

Is fanasteride topical ok? I just bought topical gel a combination of 2.5 fanasteride and 5 minoxidil. I am working on my crown I hope this combo can help and avoid having a second FUE. Im 56 years old.

Does finasteride make your hair fall initially? Thnks
Yes, that’s a good sign it means your weak hairs are getting replaced.
I had very mild shedding. It lasted about 3 months but it is really like nothing to worry about.
Yes in some cases yes. It's not a bad thing though. It means hair replacent, not hair loss. In other cases it doesn't make your hair shed initially

@@adamromero yea, wtf does that mean tho, industry pushing this product? Why?
It’s physiologically impossible for results to show any earlier than 3 months due to the time frame that a hair follicle changes it’s cycle

doesnt matter if ur taking oral, doesnt matter either way lmao

@@ShizAudi terrible advice
Excellent video of different candidates and their response to finasteride
Hey Matt! Some people say that that the originial finasteride (propecia) is superior to the generic version. Is that true?
I am using a generic version since 4 months (STADA). Should I switch?
My hairloss is a NW 3 with diffuse thinning.
The only generic version of Fin I would bet on is PROSCAR. It´s like Propecia for prostate. I have talked to many docs about it who also use it with their patients, and even for themselves. It´s cheaper and has the same efficacy. Maybe you have also noticed that in this before and after section of Dr Bernstein. Some of his patients were taking 1.25mg (obviously they were cutting Proscar in 4 pieces). I heard about the low quality of generic Finasteride but these were mainly the 1mg version pills.

PROSCAR, 5 mg, NO es un genérico, sino la MARCA ORIGINAL, de un medicamento indicado para la hipertrofia benigna de próstata. Tiene el mismo principio que Propecia, pero con dosis diferente (5 mg vs 1 mg) y distinta indicación médica (hipertrofia de próstata vs alopecia androgenética).
Ocurre, que Proscar salió al mercado antes (alrededor de 1992), y tras observarse el efecto secundario que originaba (aumento y grosor del cabello), se ensayó y se comercializó Propecia (alrededor de 1997), con la indicación de AGA en varones y con 1 mg, porque se ensayó en pruebas, que era la dosis efectiva.
En las naciones con Sistema Público de Salud (por ejemplo, en Europa occidental), Proscar, se incluyó en la financiación, Propecia, al ser para algo “estético”, NO.
Genéricos, los hay en la indicación de hipertrofia de próstata : finasteride 5 mg, KERN PHARMA, Teva, Stada, Cinfa, Normon…y, tras finalizar la patente de Propecia, también en alopecia androgenética: finasteride 1 mg, Kern Pharma, Teva, Stada, Cinfa, Normon…
Un saludo.
Is shedding after 1 month of using Finasteride normal? I am experiencing hair shedding for 2 weeks now, and I am clueless if when it will stop. :(
No. You will lose all your hair
I hate how most before photos are always wet/greasy/ separated
Or their hair is way longer in the after. All my own videos on my channel have the same before and after lengths.
Great series of videos about hair loss meds Matt. The high resolution photos are a great resource to evaluate the results. I wish the styling & length of before & after hair was identical in every photo but I realize in the real world that's not always easy to capture and a some of the photos do show that apples to apples type of comparison. I'm tempted to get back on Finasteride but I have had a lot of body hair transplanted to my scalp. I'm concerned the Finasteride will limit the growth of that because I heard body hair actually benefits from DHT. Anyone noticed Finasteride reducing your body hair? I am also taking oral minoxidil 5 mg daily so that might counteract that effect if any.
Thanks J. I haven't found any issues with Finasteride on my body/beard hair growth. It's still not known how DHT plays a role in body hair development once it has already fully matured. I believe it is crucial in the early stages of body hair follicles formation though
nice video! but why do they all take that much in terms of milligrams? i was reading a bit arround online the last weeks and many people say 0.5 every or every other day is enough. i m a bit confused.
Hi Matt,
I'm still losing hair despite having been using finasteride and minoxidil for 4 years. I've been advised by both an endocrinologist and a urologist not to go anywhere near dutasteride because of the rate at which side effects occur in long term users.
Does that mean I've lost the fight against hair loss?
Is hair transplant the only viable strategy for me to have hair?
(I'm not wanting a system or toupee or whatever it's called these days)
I would try out everything. Don’t write something off without at least trying it
@@j0nnyism What more is there to try (that's clinical proven as opposed to snake oil)?
I think it is a good time for you to add RU58841. You can get it from anagenic. Or you can do dutasteride mesotherapy. And of course hair transplant :)
Have you considered microneedling/derma rolling?
Tbh id give up if you aren't a good responder as even with a transplant you'll never get full coverage without taking fin to stop remaining hair going. You gave it a good shot but time to accept it perhaps. Hair systems might be a good option for you even though you said you aren't interested I wouldn't write them off
It is pretty evident that the more hair you have when your start, the better the results. I am not sure why anyone would take more than 1 milligram a day as the data shows that that is the max for optimum results, especially for safety for long term use.
Exactly!
The younger the better...I say Fint can bring you back 1 scale on the Norwood. 2 IF lucky. 0 if unlucky.
Why are these all on 1.25mg? I thought the dosage was 1-.0mg?
Sometimes it is 1.25mg because people cut 5mg proscar tablet in 4 pieces. Many doctors do advise it even
these results are by using Finasteride only or with minoxidil and other methods?
Only Finasteride
Matt you should grow all your hair out for 6 months to see what it's like being long, could be a good idea for a series, I'm planning to do that once mine has filled in as I had mine done 2 months ago
I always wanted to do that honestly but once my hair reaches 9-10cm I am like: "cut that shit" because I don´t like how I look lol. Maybe I will embrace it and push it to Hercules hair.
Hey idk if you’ll see this but hopefully you do but can you make a video about your skin care routine? You skin looks clear af.
Do you think taking finastride every other day can work as well the same ? Hairlossshow doctors are swearing to that. Im on that method since 3 weeks. Nothing extra happened yet im just wondering if its going to be the same.
Let me know if you have experience on that.
Thanks :)
3 weeks is probably not sufficient "time" to notice possibly.
Yes Andris. It´s sufficient. These docs know what they´re talking about as they had been prescribing fin for many years. But you won´t notice the effects of Fin after 3 weeks only. I am taking 0.5mg every day which is pretty much the same
Hi guys,can you take finasteride on its own to regrow your hair or do you have to use minoxidil or rogaine as well?
Cheers 👍🏼
excellent video!!! more videos like this
Thanks!
But it's not true
Anyone ! Please tell me if you ever seen grey hair turn darker from Finasteride , I would love to hear if any had the grey hair disappear , how much and for how long ? Good recovery to you all !
Only fanisteride? Or both minoxidil with fanisteride
i think that check results by 1 before and after photo this is be a silly . To see real results you shoud go to hair loss forum and check photos and discriptions becouse on each good result you can find bad result (sorry for my english)
For one good finasteride response, more like 10 bad responses
@@oliverwisemiller7607 you should consider what type of people jump online to talk, mostly positive users will just ignore internet searching on this subject
Had early mild hair loss, still NH-1. I got on it, 2 months later my hair is growing like a weed again. Crown is almost completely covered again. Scared me for a while due to the massive sudden shedding that I had, shedding 150-200 hairs a day for 3 weeks. Then it stopped and regrew massively
The young age played the game
Yeah
i am in 1.5 month on finasteride 1 mg..hair is shedding like crazy, around 100 150 hairs a day....feeling like going bald soon in finasteride😢 please help
guys I'm 19 years old and I lose so much hair and my hair got thinner should I start use it at that age what do u think?
I'm 20 and best thing I recommend is take it now, at 18 I had only slight receding hairline, but midway through my 19's alot of hair fell out with my front now being very thin with a very bad hairline. I've tried coconut oil/casteroil for 6 months but didn't work, but am now on Finasteride/Minoxidil and getting heaps of results .
All I'm saying is if your thinking of starting, start now before you regret waiting
@@jadenkoppe3253 yes thank you, I started to take propecia and I also bought minoxidil but didn’t use because I feel like I can’t really use that for years because of the usage. What do you think is minoxidil important to take with propecia. I guess when u stop use minoxidil, u start to lose again so idk
@@jadenkoppe3253 I am also 20years old, I’m currently taking 3mg a week of finasteride, I have been on the medication for 6months now and have seen some improvements especially on the scalp region. How many mg do you take a week?
@@jadenkoppe3253как успехи ?
V nice information bro, can I take dutasteride 0.5mg daily or twice in a week for better results n without any side effects please reply
You don't know for sure until you try but all the side effects aside from gyno are reversible. If your nipples start to hurt stop immediately and that's it
@@CamFocusApp thanks brother, I think finestrid 1 mg daily dose better then dutasteride what you think about it
@@CamFocusApp how is that?
Do u mean if ur Start to feel pain in ur nipples, u are...developing gyno?
Its not a miracle grower but it should at the least keep what you have. I got results within 3 months. No growth just slightly thicker hair compared to dail thinning I had before taking it. Only regret is not taking it years ago
Any sides?
For some people it's a miracle grower. I was on fin for years and my hair got super thick - my hair was so thin before fin people just said I was totally bald. And I had zero side effects.
@@TheHaratashiкак успехи дружище ?
Hello, does finasteride play a role in beard growth?
No
yes, your beard probably will get thinner
NO
This man is using Propecia/Finasteride 100% there is no way you could maintain hair density years post a hair transplant, I was told by my hair transplant Clinic in Turkey and the Clinic I go for PRP sessions in Harley Street London to take Finasteride becouse even PRP can be only benifical in conjunction with Finasteride.
Can i prevent hairloss with finasteride?
@@troopstroops3021 Yes for most men it works unless you fall to that small % that it won't, I prefer Propecia or a brand one compared to generic Finasteride.
It will take 6 months to see if it works.
Can these pictures be trusted though?
It just takes a long time. I'm 9 months in on fin/min plus dermarolling and i've gotten small gains so far.
how old are u ? do u using minoxidil ?
You should probably take minoxidil as well
@@TheInferno0099 I do... I take Fin/Min, Ketoconazole, Dr. Pen/Derma roll, healthy diet. It's been over a year now and I've made some gains, nothing crazy though.
@@mikeross111 did you experience thinning on sides on fin then it thickened up?
I cant find fin. Any site without prescriptions that sends in every country please?
Do you think all patients will get this result or are these just the lucky ones? great video btw matt. My hair transplant turned out better than my original hairline so im over the moon now.
@Kim that's why I went for the hair transplant instead
I don´t think these patients were exceptionally lucky. Some of them responded only decently. I think that a guy who starts treating his hair loss with Finasteride early on can experience similar results. The less thickness your hair has already lost, the better your chances are Eddy!
These are all minority cases. Most people do not get these types of results.
@@freedom4life123 Still need a DHT blocker though...it doesn't stop
@@bartbollen8166 Not minority....i'd say average gets back 1 on the Norwood scale
Can I start taking finasteride 0.5mg every day or every other day
Or 1mg every other day? as I see some doctors talking about that approach at first
And if yes which might be best?
Thanks
0.5mg is more than enough to crush your DHT at a level where hair loss stops.
Indeed, even 0.25 is sufficient if you are 30+ years old. I don't get people who blast 1+mg / day
Plus, most doctors don't know sht about finastedire dosage, hair loss and DHT
@@abdeldu133 thank you for your reply much appreciated. Im just working myself up to take it as every health professional I have spoken to has said they do not support taking it for hairloss
I am in baby shampoo, filtered water shower, Ketoconazole once a week, finasteride 1mg. In one month my hair is becoming thicker, dense and darker on the hairline and crown area as well . No side effects at all.
Happy to hear!!!
Baby shampoo, filtered water and ketoconazole won't do shit.
Is this oral or topical?
Hi matt i want to ask if finasteride can cause impotence because i want to it but im worried about the side effects and i want to have kids
Как дела ? Решились на приём финастерид ?
im 62 and am told I have solid hair, pretty good genetics as they say. just starting with finasteride at 1 mg a day, more or less to keep what I have at the least.
60 year old here started today, I wish us luck friend!
Thought I was listening to GSP there
I see gsp i like
I am not impressed with your performance
@@Saltydogwilm I don’t think one would really consider it performance
are all those patients only using finasteride or other treatments as well?
I see people with generic finasteride not making any progress in 8 months, some regrow in only 3 months under the brand propecia. Does brand really make any difference?
Why should it make a difference it’s the EXACTLY the same substance.
It most likely won't make a difference. There will probably be slight differences in some of the ingredients, but the active ingredient (Finasteride) will be the same. The most important thing is to ensure you are getting a good quality Finasteride tablet from a reputable pharmacy. Good luck.
Thats just probably confirmation bias on your side.
Hi my question is 0.5mg finastride is enough or should go with 1mg finastride?plz reply me
1mg will accumulate faster in your scalp. Long term 0.5mg or 1mg are both ok
Very helpful video! (Change the playback speed to 1.5, you’re welcome. 😎)
Do you use any hair fibers in this video ? If not hair is coming back nicely. I am talking solid results.
Not at all mate. I can do a video with me on fibers vs without them though... to show you the difference
Is it ok to take both Rogaine and finastride?
Yes
Hey Matt, do you know finpecia? I would to know if it safe or not and if its efficient. Because its less expensive than finasteride and i can find it on internet.
I didnt find many informations about this treatment so im afraid to try it.
@4:55 The hair is much longer post-fin
Did they also use minoxidil? Because if they did, these results don't mean anything.
I’m on generic finistride eod, my hair has stabilize but it’s definitely worse than when I started. Should I switch to proscar or propicia, and should I add dut once a week. I’ve read good things about dut for regrowth
Curious to know as well.
I switched from Propecia to generic thinking to save a few GB pounds and I lost lot's of density despite having PRP sessions until recently I read an academic paper published by a hair transplant doctor in the US that his clinical research shows Propecia is better as the brand used expensive machinery and other stuff for the best quality so I thought let's try Propecia again and after using a month my hair shedding stops to just a few, I am so cross with myself for switching to generic :(
Therefore go for the brand mate!
Can 1mg finasteride be taken twice a week??
I’m 17. I started balding at 15. Should I start taking it?
Shit, that sucks dude. I don't know if you can get finasteride if you're under 18 but I'd get some regaine or some other minoxidil as that's over the counter so you can get it now to last until you're able to pair it with finasteride. Best time to start using it is first signs of hair loss, so hopefully you catch it early enough
Bro go for minixodile first .iam 18 and iam suffering from hair loss too but mine us getting better. Iam doing minixodile and from next year I will go for finestaride
I've done a fair bit of research on finasteride now, decided to not take it orally and going to mix it with my minoxidil to make a topical solution. Avoids almost all the side effects (ED, fertility etc) by going directly onto the scalp rather than through the whole body. Planning on starting to use it after my wife gives birth in March, as I've since found finasteride is potentially harmful to pregnant women! Rather just wait and not take the risk
You have to be a fully developed man to start taking it
@@CyberWolfVR ya thts y i didn't take when I was 18.
I started finestride today. I am 23 years old with crown baldness preceeding and kinda depressed about it. I will update the results every month.
Any thickness now ?
@@ullasgowda2638bro finistride takes some time to show the result atleast 3 to 4 months nearly
Any update bro ?
Will you or have you done a video on the dangers? I am considering taking it but there are a lot of studies showing a significant increase of suicide link to taking the medication and sexual by problems that persist even after stopping.... any thoughts? Is it really that bad, I can’t seem to find % of people who have extreme irreversible side effects?!
Funny how he didn’t bother to reply to this 🙄
Im 1 week taking only finasteride and wondering how my hair will be in 1 year
How is it going?
