I wish more doctors and physicians understood this and taught it to their patients. So many don't know anything about it, will just prescribe daily finasteride (unnecessary) and say it should be taken at the same time every day. Appreciate your work so much on this and bringing this info to so much of the public.
My doctor even told me I don’t need it!😂
This is the only hairloss channel that I trust. Many others just are just full of clickbaits and just want the views, gain more subscribers, or sneakily want to brainwash you and promote a product or a clinic. The best thing about this channel is the sources we have here are doctors who have years and years of experience, not some successful hair transplant patient teaching how he got his hair back or a pseudo-balding person who isn't really balding in the first place but acts like he's balding, like buzzing off his head to make it seem he's thinning, to promote products to make it seem it's working. I've seen it all. Been in to the hair loss war since 2015, this is the only channel I trust.
Straight to the point. You are phenomenal
Great video as always from this doctor, respect. As someone who suffers from anxiety and depression, I learned the hard way that this drug can really affect one's mood. These days I take 1 mg every third to fourth day, and use topical minoxidil/finasteride the other days. Seems to be working, and my mood although not always great, is definitely better these days. I am taking prozac as well, and hope that taking the two drugs together continues to work for both my hair and mental health.
How much ml are you applying the topical fina and is it once a day and at night time or morning?
Im also taking anti depressant fkr my mental issue.
@@juniorjunior4087 I am not a doctor, and my comments are strictly for entertainment purposes. Now taking half of a dose of finasteride daily. No more topical these days. Started out every other day by the way. Good luck, and make sure to keep tabs on your mental health!
I lost my hair in the 90s it took a while to build up in my system maybe three or four months and my hair is back to normal 👍🏻
So did mine but it took a total of 4 Years for my hair totally come back to normal
@@radioaustralia5070side effects?
@@fighterinmkiwiscience3517 absolutely nothing and that's being honest, don't believe crap on the internet
@radioaustralia5070 you went from bald to having your hair completely back?
After watching this channel I did take finasteride for several months in the beginning I noticed less hair loss but after 3-4 months my body stopped reacting to it so I had to increase the dosage as I did it I noticed that my s3x drive went down and also heard that it could increase the risk of getting high grade cancer, eventually stopped taking it and then my hair started shedding, I ended up losing more hair so I regret it now.
You just lost the hair you were going to have lost at that point in time if you never took it. Sorry to hear about your experience
I don’t think there is something like “stopped reaction”. Finasteride blocks dht, the body doesn’t have to respond
Bro what r u saying 😂😂😂 finasteride saves hairs for 10 years and much more and u r saying 4 months no one is going to believe u😂
@@whatever6632 what are you saying? Do you think I have no other things to do other than lying people in youtube comments? I’m just sharing my experience.
explained well and concisely. thanks for sharing!
Please make a video on perfect dose of "oral minoxidil" for men as well as women
2.5mg - 5mg for men. 5 is better if you can tolerate it. Start low
@@Mercurial_Phantom thanx..
@@Mercurial_Phantomhow often? I ve read 1 mg per day is recommended.
@@Mercurial_Phantombut it's half life is 4-5 hrs what after that😢😢
@@whatever6632 pretty sure it's 22-23 hours
Congrats on 100k+ !!
could you guys talk about the pros and cons of taking finasteride when you are NOT balding (yet)
What kind of question is that? 😂 You should not take it if you are not balding, what’s the point? I get that prevention is better than the cure but there’s no guarantee you’ll ever even start balding, there’s still a lot of men that keep their hair their entire life. Just a waste of money and potential side effects
I've heard that the half life of finasteride in the hair follicle is much longer than the half life in blood. Is this perhaps what you mean when you talk about the effect on the enzyme being very long? Finasteride is a noncovalent drug, so the effect on the enzyme should be proportional to concentration in the near vicinity of the enzyme.
That's what he's talking about, yes.
Why is it ‘not necessarily recommended on an empty stomach’ ? An important point. Medical professionals are expected to fully explain their remarks. Not the half a*s , glossed over statement observed here.
Because like any other drug you might get more side effects when taking it on an empty stomach. Some things might not even work like vitamin d supplements. And taking any drug after eating something is safer
@@lalotime thanks captain obvious, everyone knows that, but 'what side effects exactly' was the point. Your comment is half a*s just like OP mentioned. You provided no useful information whatsoever.
Because you’re trying to replace going to a doctor with a video. Your body is different from millions of other people.
Don't listen to these clown doctors. Finasteride isn't safe at all
@@etaesu83lol your doctor even in person will treat you the same as other patients, haven't you heard the excuse, oh it didn't work for you but just remember not everyone is the same but they treat everyone the same.
How about women taking it??? Does it work as well as men taking it?? I am really wanting to know.
Hey dr i hope you’re doing great and i really hope u answer this question, if someone already had Androgenetic alopecia and then had telogen effluvium does telogen effluvium accelerate the miniaturization process? Or it doesn’t affect the underlying androgenetic alopecia?
Thank you sir
Please tell me one. I have androgenic alopecia in vertex region and frontal region. I have taken finesteride 1mg four month with that saw Palmetto and biotin 1000cg. I feel better now. Can I stop finesteride now or continue? How many month normally recommend to continue even hair growth found?
Once you stop finasteride the results go away
It is life time then?
@@Azzam-ft1ls yip
@@Azzam-ft1ls you have to keep taking it if u need to keep ur hair on ur head.
Maybe if you become older your body will have less Testosteron to build DHT from it. In this case I would reduce the dose.
I have noticed that finasteride worked extremely well in my case , the volume of hairs is satisfactory but i noticed that my hairs have turned grey mostly.. Could it be a side effect??? Guide plz
That's Good .Can you tell me that how many months you saw the results?
@@Navi-kn6is thank you.. Within a period of 6 months i noticed a great volume in my hairs and also my receeding line grown back with hairs..but once you quitt the medicine , the hairs will start to fall again , not very soon but they will fall again by the time.. 👍
Could you do a video on topical melatonin, as that is a subject I’m seeing a lot of circulating at the minute, and it’s ability to reduce DHT in the scalp.
Hello! Should I take it randomly, I mean today in the morning, tomorrow midday, and next one in the evening?
Micro dose
Appreciated ..kindly let me know .. how long boiten 2500mcg should be enough after hair transplant or generally..
I don’t think Biotin is going to make much of a difference regarding a hair transplant. You likely need a potent DHT blocker such as Finasteride to stop the further progression of loss.
Hello friends,
I am 26 years old and started to loose my hair with 19.
I would like to start with fin 1 mg per day and asked myself if it could have an impact to my beard growth, because DHT is a mainly factor to growth a beard, right?
I mean I don’t think that my beard is complete finished to grow, and I don’t really want to sabotage the growth or more worse to lose some of it.
What do you think, does someone have similar experience ?
1 year on 1mg. No change on beard. Take fin for 1 year then get oral minoxidil if you can, will boost hair everywhere, then you can also microneedle your beard for more stimulation.
Your beard will grow, just slower. You can use minoxidil to help your beard grow
In addition, since you said you have hair loss since 19, maybe protecting your left over hair is more important than squeezing the last bit out of your beard. The only thing DHT will help is transition the vellus hair into terminal hair, so everything you already have will not be reversed
Can u make a video on pumpkin seed oil as a natural dht blocker
I take 3 times a week 1 mg finasteride with my testavon gel now for 11 months (transition masculinity ) . Till now a lost no hair but I use it to counteract because my dad is bold . Is this helping or I have to wait till I loose hair ?
Many people take it as a preventative measure. If you tolerate it well, it’s a good idea and WILL work. If you wanted to wait a bit until you see any balding, that’s not a bad idea either.
Your dad doesn’t matter
what's the reason of falling hair around ears? is it treatable?
not sure if its fin or oral min but i get extreme fatigueness... so i try to take this after work/evenings rather than in the morning/affecting my day or late int he evening/waking up with still most of the med undigested...
I had chemo and after my hair grew back full but for the last few months my hair has been falling out. Will this help. I have seen where chemo. I have heard this happening to other women. Will this help me?
How about mid-morning?
Late afternoon?
What about dusk?
I take finestride 0.5mg daily at night do i tk it daily or do i tk it once in 3 days
Topical fenestride vs tablet ? Which is better
Tabet because it directly absorbs in hair root unlike topical where only 6% finistride gets absorbed in root and rest gets stuck in hair and wash away
Topical because it actually goes straight to your hair follicles which is your target area. Tablets affect other arteries and blood vessels all over your body that could give you side effects like palpitation, migraine, or heartburns. I experienced it. Topical is strongly recommended.
I am 4.5 months into HT and i have not taken any meds. I want to go on Finasteride 1mg. is it to late? or can I jump on it?
Just a question. I am taking Finasterid 0.25 mg every day by dividing a pil into 4.
Do you think that is enough to stop DHT killing my hairs?
I am now 33 years old. Thank you very much in advance for your help
And do you think that I can get parts of my hairs back? In addition I am using XPECIA/Saw Palmetto 1 pill every day
I take 0.5mg every day, but have played around with different doses over the years. It all depends on how aggressive the hair loss is, if it’s not bad, then just a small amount can be enough to suppress the DHT levels, but it’s an individual thing, so play around with doses and see, but you need 3 months really to see. 3mg a week seems to be ideal for a lot of people, but some need a bit more, but as I said it depends on the level of hair loss.
Also minoxidil is good, I didn’t get on with topical as it didn’t work for me, so changed to oral but only been on that a few weeks so early days, but oral generally works better
@@8214jonever heard of Pericardial Effusion???
You can find the graph online on the % of reduction according to the mg. I think 0.5 is the sweet spot, but 0.25 works almost as good.
What’s better oral minoxidil or finestride??
Finestride obviously
I experienced testicles pain and watery sperm after three days on fin, I quit. Should I consider restarting ? I'm very concerned, I was quite calm when I started... now I'm scared
Sounds like testicle pain is very common. I had this for the first couple weeks. Went away then.
I take it at night time before I go to sleep 😴
what’s ur dosage
Doctor i use finastride 9 am daily without food can i change timing its not effect my result im using 1.5 year
Mate did you expose to side effects? I am 23 years old ı want to use finasterid but ı am a little scare because of side effects.
Can finasteride develope cancer? Does it contain any carcinogens ? Plz reply
No
No
It can cause dry eye in some of cases I read .
I am on fin from 2 weeks now with 3 times a week so do i have to take this for the rest of my life now??? Am 21
You need to take it for as long as you want to keep your hair. Once older, you may of genetically reached your hair loss limit, and wouldn’t need it, but that’s impossible really to know, unless you stopped it and monitored hair afterwards.
@@8214jon thank you but what about side effects if I have to suffer form those it's not worth it na?
@@ishaan3517 if you get sides, try lowering dose
update
@@ishaan3517 bro fin ka side effect ha ?
can take 1mg once a week?
Daily use
That's not enough to stop hairloss.
I can't take it cause it messed my eyes
Hot take: transgender surgery patients use finasteride to help the process.
can you be on Finasteride and still have children
Yes. Some guys recommend to stop using it for several months if they're planning to conceive a baby. Like 3 months before. Once the guy gets his wife pregnant, then he can return to taking it normally.
@@joeblack7326 can i ask, 3 months won't you lose much hair
Does finnisteride decrease testosterone?
No my friend, should actually increase it
Increases it but it's not anything crazy
@thehairlossshow
does taking finastraide affects negatively on lever or any other organs?
low chance, get a liver test after a few months of usage. And don't cut the tablets
This drug is made by criminals
I tried to take but it caused some mental issues. I only took 1/4 of a 1 mg pill for two days . Really disappointed
have you considered a topical version?
That is really interesting. I am taking Finasterid 0.25 mg every day since May 2023. I didnt have any side effects.
Imagination is a hell of a drug.
sounds like nocebo
Lolwot
Anyone have success with topical finasteride? I tried oral and it gave horrible ED after 3 weeks of use. Thinking of hopping on topical 3 times a week
Take 0.5mg or even 0.2
try oral at lower dose. Topical is not as effective, and it still enters your bloodstream so it's not 100% "safe" from sides
Don’t try topical. It can still give side effects, plus, you’re shocking your bodies hormones again with a blocker. It could be more likely your side effects will stay if you try again
I can't take it at all because it's too expensive.
The generic is cheap
Costco $12.99 for 90 tablets. Three tablets a week. So that's $12.99 for 30 weeks. Can't get much cheaper than that.
cheaper than hair transplant
@@deandana8291 .. Very expensive here in Ireland, they make a big stupid deal of it.
here in my country a pack of 20 tablets costs half a dollar. its generic but works fine@@deandana8291
Guys, please be careful, Finasteride can temporarily kill your 🥒. Is the worst feeling 😅😅😅
Never ruined my hammer! My hammer strong pounding out nails constantly
Nothing is wrong with my hammer either. I’m 42 and take it 3X a week. 🍆
the best time to take it is never, remember folks, a dermatologist will worry about your hair, not your overall health
Why u r saying this
stay bald
@@rexneedsoxygen7140i'm not going bald, but if i was, i would prefer to keep my libido and mental health and all the other things finasteride fucks with, fell free to cope buddy, but just remember, you are on this finasteride journey for the rest of your life, good luck
well I got it from a normal doctor
amen, if you need help with ur teeth go to the vet X D
Stop promoting this dangerous drug!!!!
