I'm taking finasteride for over a year now and I have noticed a significant improvement in my hair growth. However I see a lot of shedding even after a year. I see at least 200 hair falling off everyday and I see hair everywhere in my apartment. It's very distressing and also my hair could've been better without this shedding. I take 1 mg every 2 days. What can I do to stop this? Please help.

Finasteride is good for hair loss but not for your healthy sexual life.

It can be improved with more specific medicine depends on the grade. You are suffering from hormonal changes causing androgenetic alopecia causing hair fall. It's completely stoppable even regrowth of hair is possible with certain medications without any side effects. Treatment depends on the grade of hair loss. So, it's a must for diagnosing which grade, you are in for an effective treatment. Please send photos of your head, by direct online consultation for accurate diagnosis and proper treatment.
