Discussion between two men on Reddit about finasteride

Below is the conversation I had with another reddit user in this post regarding finasteride. I would greatly appreciate your feedback regarding what he said. Is it true?


Me: I’m 7 months with no noticeable improvements. It may take up to 2 years for improvements, but we’ll see

Him: Thats not true the peak at 2 years mark , but thats only if u saw any improvment by 6 month mark

Me: At year 2, almost 20% more saw regrowth according to the FDA-supported study. So yeah…it may take 2 years to notice improvement. Never heard of the 6 month statement. How do you know that?

Him: Lol trust me the brother. I have no reason to let you down. If u got nothing by now. You are not gona get any after. I mean if you are stable be happy.

Me: The research contradicts you

Him: U clearly didnt understand

Me: Please explain then and where you got that info from. I want to learn

Him: There a huge missleading about the fda reaserch. They mention that the the peak of the result were on 2 years mark. But those ppl kept improving since day one up to 2 years. Its not like after 1 year the regrowth start to accure. After 1 hair cycle u should see some results if u respond with regrowth.

My opinion is:

  1. finasteride may reverse hair loss (rare)
  2. finasteride may slow hair loss down (common)
  3. finasteride may stop hair loss (common but you don’t know this unless you stop the drug)
