Hello dr, my age is 22 years and I have had hair thinning from a long time. It has been going downhill from the year 2015. I don't have mpb but my overall density of hair has significantly reduced in these years. Diffuse thinning I believe. Mothers and fathers side is all bald, father got rapidly bald at 29. For a past year I have started working out and my hairfall has aggravated. My head has become visible. My diet has been very good and balanced with good amount of protein. Last 4-5 months my workout has been even more harder and so my hairfall is getting even quicker. I used to have social anxiety about my body but now I am a very fit mascular indivisual so my confidence is sky high. I want to hop on fin and min, have done the research and understand that the risk is not as severe as people make it out to be. What should be my course of action from here?

Hello Doctor. You’re doing such a wonderful job by educating us on different hair issues. I’m a 50 years old healthy man who just started taking 1 mg of Finasteride on alternate days. Just after my second dose I’m noticing an urge to urinate specially at night time which I have never experienced before. I have been doing regular kegel exercise from many years and that helped me with my bladder control. Since this medication is for prostate, like to know if this is a side effect that causing me an urge for urinating. If so, what can be done? Please advise. Thanks

Excellent advice. 1mg is too powerful for most men. I was on 1mg/3x a week to avoid sides and still got them after about 3 months. I think 60-90 days is when the Finasteride begins its peak levels of DHT suppression, which then brings the side effects.

That is the tissue build up which will get removed the same time you are off it as Finasteride- 15 days every 3 months. But I have no clinical experience with Dutasteride since I do not prescribe it more than once a week.

Hi , so i am on 0.5 topical fin 2x a week (1mg a week) and its been 3 weeks now and at the moment I have taken 3mg in total . After 2.5 ml i started to feel weird , my motivation was low and my lib got affected too...I have used fin before too with different doses 1mg of topical fin a day , 1 mg every alternate days , 0.5 mg every alternate days and all this time i got the side effects hence I am fearful about it ( can this be psychological?)and now using just 1 ml a week (0.5x2) . Also my T is 700 but i am worried my free T is lower as have lost lean muscle in these 2 years , lower lib than it was before and trouble concentrating . So these are my questions to you. 1. Should i get my free T in order put on some weight , muscle get bulkier and then start using Fin ? May be I would be able to handle fin better than 2. What if i stop using fin after 2.5ml ( as after this i get my sides) take a break , let it flush out and than repeat so that I dont build up fin levels more in my body.

I think you are worked up about Finasteride. You never get sides effects after 2.5 mg! Whatever the reason, I do not think psychologically you are geared to start a medicine like Finasteride. Please do not take it.

Precious time has been lost due to your succumbing to false information about Finasteride. The drug when used intelligently under medical supervision is the gold standard for hair loss management and has no alternative. At this stage only thinning hairs that are 50% of their original volume will return. Finasteride will need to be taken long-term.

Hello and thank you for the great video. I'm taking a combination of 0,5 minoxidil and 0,3 finasteride foam form in a bottle of 100ml. The counsil said to take 1 dose at morning and 2 doses in the evening. Someone said to me that this is a large overall dose and I've experienced some libido issues. Is this very high? I don't know how much mg of finasteride I'm getting with these 3 doses.

@hairtransplantinindia

If this is topical form you are referring to, which you most likely are, you don't have to worry. Finasteride topically does not have effect on your hair loss. And risk of libido issues is even more remote.

Then i decided to stop it intil the side effects reverses. What do you think should i do ? Should i re start with a lower dose? 0.5 or 0.25mg 3 times a week ? Or switch to topical finastride? By the way I did not make any blood test before starting finastride, i am 25 , my baldness stage is about NW3, my BMI is around 26.

Hello doctor! Great video! thanks for all the information. I take finasteride for the last 1.5 years and I started with 0.5mg on alternate days, then moved to 0.5mg per day, next 1mg on alternate days and then tried 1mg every day. By taking 1mg every day, I have no issue with sex drive, but I noticed a reduction in the number of random erections per day as well as morning wood does not happen everyday. So, I tried reducing the dose to 1mg six times per week with no much of improvement on random erections. It seems like the sweet spot is 1mg 5 days per week (Tuesday-Wednesday-Thursday-Saturday-Sunday). All of the aforementioned are performed in line with my dermatologist. In the meantime, my hair was stabilised and improved with even 0.5mg on alternate days I am 32 years old, BMI is 24, very athletic exercising 4 times per week with weights and performing aerobic exercise every day for 30 minutes at least. Is it enough to take finasteride 5 times per week if considering a hair transplant in the near future?
