The user experiences significant hair shedding during seasonal changes while using oral minoxidil 2.5mg and finasteride 1mg daily. They question if shedding miniaturized hairs is normal or if a stronger treatment is needed.

A user has been taking 0.5mg oral finasteride daily for over four years and experiences seasonal hair shedding, which is frustrating but not concerning as the hair regrows. They are considering increasing DHT blocking or adding minoxidil to potentially improve hair density and reduce shedding.

OP is experiencing ongoing hair shedding despite two years on finasteride, with some initial improvement but no long-term success. Users suggest seasonal shedding, checking for vitamin deficiencies, considering minoxidil, and possibly switching to dutasteride.

The user experienced significant hair improvement using oral finasteride and minoxidil but is now facing a secondary hair shedding phase after nine months, possibly linked to weight loss or seasonal changes. Despite concerns, others in the conversation suggest that such shedding is normal and temporary.

A user shared their 11-year experience with finasteride, noting temporary increased shedding that stopped, and advised continuing the treatment despite seasonal shedding. They reported no side effects and maintained a full head of hair.
