| I've noticed positive results
right away from Avodart. At first, just a reduction in the amount of hair
I lose each day. Then over a few months my hair thickened and improved
it's "health" and appearance. I also seem to have new hair growth on the
temples and crown.
No previous use of propecia or
minoxidil.
Within months of the starting treatment with Avodart
my hair completely stopped falling out and I had some new regrowth in the
front.. The new hairs coming in are thin but much more plentiful
I didn't notice anything for
the first three months however now in the fourth month I'm starting to
see some improvement. My hair is feeling and looking thicker now. I'm very
pleased so far, I hope this trend continues.
Sincerely,
Rxxxx______
I have had great
results with avodart thus far. I do have shedding, but it is always followed
with a regrowth phase, which leaves my hair looking thicker and stronger
each time. Overall it is the best treatment I have used to treat my MPB
and has regrown my hair to nearly the same thickness as when I was in my
late teens.
I have experienced shedding after
18 months followed by regrowth. The shed was heavy and lasted about 2 1/2
weeks. After this period of
shedding I experienced good regrowth.
The only strange part is the sheds seem to effect the frontal part of my
hairline hardest.
However, I have experienced shedding
with every hair loss treatment I have tried. Rogaine, Propecia, and Avodart
have all produced sheds for me. I am guessing this means I am a good responder
to these treatments as my hair has always come back thicker and stronger.
Overall Avodart has worked better for me then anything else I have tired
and I am very happy with my results.
Dear Medical Wellness Center,
Here is my experience, I am Dutch,
so there maybe some grammar mistakes!
I have used finasteride for about
three years with good success,
the fourth year it looked like
fin has lost his strength, because every month my hair got worse
and had more loss. I felt really
bad that fin was not working anymore!
Five months ago, I started taking
avodart.
First week little bit of headache
, but this went away after two weeks.
Also in the very beginning I
noticed more oily skin?? but this also went away!
week three and four shedding,
and shedding that I never noticed in the beginning of propecia
The shedding lasted for about
three weeks in total.
After that , it went better every
month, No more side effects whatsoever, except a little bit of gain wait,
but maybe I have to do more exercise !!
Month three and four , noticeable
thick hair and regrowth in the crown, the thickening of hair is very noticeable,
I never had this thick hair while on fin. Also my hair feels less oily
, which feels a lot better.
Regrowth in the crown, also very
noticeable , not only me, but also other people saw the progress.
Unfortunately no regrowth in
the front, but its only my fifth month!
Month three and four were very
good, and looked very promising.
This month, my fifth, my hair
does not feel very thick anymore, but maybe its a face,
I think I really can give a good
experience after a year, and I hope I will see the same results the up
coming months which I had in month three and four. There is one thing
that is also noticeable. When I was young I used to have really blond hair.
When I got older my hair got
more dark blond, only on summer holiday it got blonder due to the sun.
Well, its so strange but my hair
gets blonder on avodart!! People think I am blonding my hair!!!
I never had this while on propecia.
I like it, but I never knew that DHT, has something to do with the colour
of the hair??
Anyway, Its ups and downs, but
it looks promising, because the last year on fin, it only was going downwards,
and with avodart, I have good hair days again!!
Thanks for your interest, and
your service, I will soon filing in for another prescription, and if you
like I will give you the results after a year of using avodart
greetings

I am having outstanding results
and they started about 45 days after beginning. I had an extremely stagnant
result with propecia so I was not holding out much hope. Propecia helped
me not lose as much but I still lost hair. I have not ever been bald but
I was about a 2.5 on the norwood scale. Now after about 4 months I am at
a 1.5 to 2. My hair shaft is thicker. I am filling in areas around the
front that haven't grown hair in probably 3 to 5 years. If I was reading
this I probably wouldn't believe it but BELIEVE ME. I have no reason or
vested interest in avodart to not tell the truth.
For the first time since I was
in college I have my hair grown out (about 5 inches long on top) and just
comb it straight back everyday. My recession would have been embarrassingly
noticeable with the hairline I had last year. Simply, it would have looked
AWFUL. I am 34 years old and was about to give up hope but am so glad I
didn't. I do use minoxidil based products still and other topicals so I'm
sure that has something to do with it as well but it wasn't until dutasteride
that it really started happening for me. I hope others are having the same
results and I hope you can email me back and tell me the response you are
getting from others. Thank you for the fantastic service.

Dear Medical Wellness Center,
Concerning my experience thus
far with Avodart/Dutasteride, I would have to say it is by far the best
hairloss treatment I have used to date (including minoxidil, thymuskin,
saw palwetto/nettle/pygeum, etc...). I started using 1/4 tab Proscar about
six months prior to Avo/Dut and had some positive results, but my hair
has really improved since taking Avo/Dut. I am currently going through
a seasonal "shed" but my hair is far better than it was at this time last
year. (I am currently using no other regrowth tx).
I had some dry skin/dry eye symptoms
early on which have since stabilized. The dry eye is gone, and my skin
feels "normal" again although much less oily than previous (it looks better
as well). The only negative side effect I've really experienced is some
weight gain, probably from increased testosterone estrogen conversion,
but I'm making progress on that end with more exercise.
Thank you.

The drug is phenomenal. In the
6 months I have used it, I definitely have noticed regrowth with absolutely
no side effects. Thank you so much for making this available to me--it
has greatly improved my life. JP
slight shed , thicker hair overall
no shedding, extreme thickening of hair, excellent results
no side effects whatsoever. i am very!! pleased with the results Hair has
stabilized and stopped falling out. Regrowth has been gradual
noticed very little hairloss shortly after start and have
added considerable density. I have not had any shedding periods.
notices a slowing of loss
Things seemed to get thinner weeks 4 -8 then, considerable
thickening on entire scalp from week 16 until now. Not sure if I am continuing
to improve but very happy with the results so far. Much better than when
I was on Proscar from Aug 1988 to Dec 2002.
had initial shedding, hairloss slowed/stopped after ~4
months
Hair is thicker, crown filling in, lots of work needed
though
There was an initial significant shed (particularly about
the crown) about one month into the medication, which lasted for several
weeks. Subsequently, there was substantial regrowth to the point that the
hair is markedly more dense than when I began treatment. Frontal hairline
has remained largely unchanged, but some marginal new hair growth (approximately
1/2 inches in length or less) is visible just at, or below, the existing
hairline.
Notable loss by High School age, increased in college.
Improved greatly with Avodart .5mg/day as only treatment.
No shedding. Regrowth at 3 months.
I had minimal shedding, no side effects. My hair is much
thicker and healthier looking. Still not sure if any growth is occurring.
But results were much more better than propecia or minoxidil. Thickening
about month 5 and has been getting better ever since. Random hairs around
temple area where hairline used to be. Very excited to continue using avodart.
Notice changes right away my hair loss stopped
Noticed changes within second month. Thickening of existing
hair. Some vellus regrowth at temples.
Yes had initial shedding at the 3 month but it resided
It took about 3 months and I started to see a thickening
on the crown and along the sides and front. I had no shedding or any side
effects other than more hair.
Stopped hairloss at the most after 5 to 6 months, no initial
shedding, no regrowth.
Thickening in Mid Anterior and crown, slight shedding
at the frontal Hair line
My hair loss is stopped, and some thickening started 1
month ago.
stopped hairloss
within first 2 weeks. regrowing in temple and crown areas
Noticed overall improvement within 3 months. My crown,
which was quite thin, has almost completely filled in. New hair continuing
to grow in around hairline and on top.
I took Propecia with good results starting in 1999 and
then switched to Avodart in 2002 with even better results.
Shedding was significant
in the first 3 months. After shedding came significant flaking and red
irritation of the scalp. Currently I have remaining irritation on my scalp.
My response to Avodart
has been good. I can tell the hair directly on top of my head is a little
denser. The most noticeable change has been on my temples and perhaps a
mild shed at around the one month mark...regrowth to this point (five months)
has been minimal, if any
Seems like hair loss has diminished. Hair seems
to grow longer and stay fuller
(before falling out). Was previously on Propecia so can't there was a huge
change, but again, losses seem to have diminished.
just maintaining after 6 months
frontal hairline.
At 3-4 months, I noticed small hairs were becoming visible where my hairline
used to be. Now approaching the end of 6 months, these hairs are much more
visible and actually have a little length to them. I am eager to see how
it will look at 9-12 months!
I do not recall a period of initial
shedding. If it did occur, it was not apparent to me when viewing my hair
in the mirror.
Some thickening in frontal area.
Started losing my hair at age 19 by age 32 I was a NW
class 5-6. I started using finasteride 6/02 and then switched to Avodart
12/02. I have regrown 2.5 inches of my original frontal hair (only have
.5" to reach my original hairline). My crown area is a NW 3-4. I have not
experienced any side effects from Avodart (.5 mg/day).
After 4 months a thickening of hair, no shedding.
maintained existing
hair
moderate regrowth
skin cleared up immediately and regrowth beginning after
about 4 months. thickening of existing hair can be seen.
My hair loss seems to have halted. It is difficult
to say if there has been any regrowth after 6 months use
Noticed new hair growing all over my scalp at 3 months
and continues to improve weekly
hairloss slowed down greatly after first month, no regrowth
yet
Some regrowth visible
after 4 months.
hair seems fine...there were some shedding in the 5th
month. overall there is no slick bald spot.
I observed thickening and a reduction
in daily hairloss after six weeks on Avodart. Hair loss accelerated during
months 3 and 4, but stabilized, and thickening resumed beginning in month
6.
Initial shedding, which seemed to have all but stopped.
I observed thickening and a reduction in daily hairloss
after six weeks on Avodart. Hair loss accelerated during months 3 and 4,
but stabilized, and thickening resumed beginning in month 6.
hairloss has stopped
after 5 and one
half months there are many short new hairs coming in. they are of natural
color.
i have had a little shedding
that occurred around month 3.
Some thickening of temples, which was my goal; definite
increased growth on scalp and even in hairline area, however, nothing close
to complete "filling in;" however, that was not my expectation, and my
modest expectations were exceeded Some initial shedding that stopped at
4 months - now at 5 months some slight thickening
hair loss seems to be slowing
slowing of hair
loss
Had some slight initial shedding
which lasted 3 months. Shedding has stopped completely. Have not noticed
any cosmetic improvement yet, however it may take some time I realize.
During the first 6 weeks I experience
large amounts of shedding. Over the past few months it has decreased to
the point of no shedding. My existing hair appears to be thickening but
no regrowth to date
I have been on Avodart
5 months as of today, 6/15/03. My overall remaining hair is thicker, have
seen some moderate regrowth at the crown, no regrowth at hairline or temples
yet, but, no further loss anywhere.
4-6 weeks shed;
3-4 months regrowth
I noticed some initial
shedding which led to less shedding than before. I think I have some hair
regrowth but also I think it may be too soon to tell.
After about 3 weeks
- I noticed that my hair was starting to stabilize and the fallout was
reduced. After about 3 months - I felt my fallout had severely reduced
and my hair was close to stabilization
Hair still shedding
but thicker
I noticed healthier
feeling hair within a couple of weeks. After six months my hair looks fuller.
I don't know if this is regrowth or thickening shafts, but there is a difference
for the better.
Visible hair loss decreased to
a very stable level approximately 3-4 weeks after first administration.
There were no instances of noticeable shedding throughout the 6 months.
Hair has not thickened up but, rather, has maintained its appearance and
fullness. Skin has become less oilier and acne free. It is working very
well, I believe, in maintaining my hair and preventing further loss.
Started to notice
a difference after first month less fallout and overall my scalp felt better.
Three months into treatment started to notice a few new hairs growing below
my hairline and a slight thickening up all over. Now after six months I
can see lots of new hairs growing in front the new growth looks like my
hairline when I was twenty-five years old. Very exciting and I know this
medication works. I am confident that it just takes more time I had my
best results from Propecia after two years and think the same thing will
happen with avodart only much better. My hairloss was slow and I think
my regrowth will also take time.
Response to Avodart treatment described: Initially it
seemed to completely halt the loss. At about 3.5 to 4.5 months I seemed
to shed more than ever. 4.5 to present hairloss has seemed to halt again.
I definitely have some new hair at the temples and the crown.
After initial shedding
for the first four months, hair is beginning to thicken slowly but noticeably.
Hairloss has stopped and hair
is regrowing over scalp.
I have not experienced
any kinds of shedding what so ever and i noticed that avodart was working
within the first two months. I believe that avodart has stopped my hairloss
and has thickened my existing hair.
Noticed vellus hairs
on hairline thickening within 3 months. They are thicker and darker but
not terminal, normal hairs at 6 months. No shedding.
some initial shedding
which has stopped with definite thickening of hair and halting of further
loss. Shedding about one month to three months and thickening after just
a few weeks
No shedding and about a 20% increase in crown density
after 4 months. About a 5-10 % increase in hairline density. Overall improved
hair shaft quality over propecia.
after about 4 months
my improvement seemed nothing short of miraculous, but recently i had a
period of major fallout and things are now looking bad again. I have increased
my dose to two .5 pills per day and am starting to see the beginnings of
regrowth.
My response has
been good. Regrowth has been slow but steady. I have thousands of tiny
slightly pigmented hair that continue to grow. Could take a year for good
results. People have commented that my hair is looking thicker. I have
a buzz cut.
I had some initial
shedding but as time went by the shedding slowed down and I began to notice
the overall quality of my hair improved.
My hair loss seemed
to stop within the first week or two, however, I did not experience any
noticeable regrowth until recently. After about six months on Avodart,
I noticed that my hair had thickened a great deal on the top and a little
on
the sides. It seems to me that
there has been a little regrowth at the frontal hairline, however, this
could be all in my mind. I may have experience a little shedding early
on, however it was not noticeable. Otherwise I have not experience any
side effects as a result of using Avodart.
noticed some regrowth
around hairline. experienced some shedding for first month. have had no
side effects. hairloss is almost completely stopped.
Great results after
the first 3-4 months. Noticed increase loss after 5 1/2 months. Currently
loss has slowed, and hair is filling in nicely. Very positive results
0-2 months slight
regrowth
2-4 months shedding
4-6 months continued regrowth
My progress
have been so far thickening of the hair and a lot of new hair grow. Result
have been much better than with it any other drug ( propecia). The results
are always improving ever month. That part is very exciting
started seeing a definite improvement in my crown area...this
area is almost completely filled in after 6 mos. of treatment
I have used it for
6 months and it seems to be maintaining my hair much better than the Propecia
did. The regrowth that I have had has been mostly in the back but my frontal
area continues to lose a little but not at the rate as before.
Responding moderately
well. Noticed vellus blond hairs after a few weeks, but they haven't become
terminal. Hair has felt thicker and healthier. Very light shedding after
about 3 months, but hair returned. Possibly slight regrowth at this point.
4 months to stop loss, regrowth stage now
Slight regrowth,
vastly improved density, far less shedding. GReat drug!
During month one
and two, skin got noticeably dry around forehead and eyebrows, beard hair
growth has been reduced about 50% and non-thinning side and back of head
hair got even thicker and noticeable shed occurred at month 2.5 that lasted
a month but was not severe. During month three and four, crown hair got
alot thicker and longer. During months five and six, mid-scalp hair has
gotten noticeably thicker and longer. Front hair is still short and thin
and no real improvement on recessed temples as of yet but i am very encouraged.
Thickening in crown
area after 3-4 months. Stabilization of existing hair. No shedding or any
other hair-related problems.
My progress has been excellent.
I honestly have to say that I'm very pleased with Avodart. I've been taking
the .5 mg softgel dosage everyday and it's been wonderful. My hair has
gotten thicker and the tiny spot in the crown has filled in very nicely.
My receding temples have come in just a bit. Remind you I am 25 yrs old
and was not that bad to begin with. With the treatment going on to the
6th month mark, I'd have to say I'm very happy to have decided to use avodart.
Great product by GSK. Hope my input helps.
initial shedding
was minimal. The amount of hair that was falling out before avodart has
decreased. I have not seen any new hair starting to grow but the hair i
have appears to have started to thicken.

I did have initial shedding at week 4. My crown is thicker
at this point.
Slight regrowth
with thickening of existing hair within the last 30 to 45 days.
some regrowth at
the crown, some shedding at the beginning, thickening
Within several months
I could tell my hair was getting thicker. Now, seven months later, my hair
is thicker than it has been in at least 4 years. My hairline has not completely
filled in, but it has moved down at least a quarter inch thus fair. This
new growth in the front is not a thick as the rest of my hair, but it is
beginning to fill in more each month.
I had some shedding
which had started about one month into the prescription. The shedding stopped
after a few weeks and then I noticed my frontal hairs to grow slightly
longer. After six months of taking Avodart I feel that my hairloss has
halted and hopefully I will be noticing new hair grow within the coming
months.
no significant initial
shedding
shedding reduced over the six-month
period of taking Avodart
improved maintenance of existing
hair, although little regrowth of hair lost previously
Initial shedding
the first few months that then was reduced to almost no shedding. No noticeable
regrowth.
Regrowth and thickening
of hair occurred within three months. Currently no hairloss while on medication
slight shedding after month 1. regrowth during months
2&3. less progress/some shedding last 3 months.
very good results
starting at month 3
4 months thickening...shaft and
density
light shedding after
2 months, thicker hair by month 5-6.
Noticed considerable
hair growth about 3 weeks into treatment. The crown of my head was completely
bald and now covered in fine, light colored (have dark brown hair) hairs
about 1/2 to 1 cm long. Also growth of the same type in the frontal scalp
within existing (remaining) dark hair and in the upper temples area. No
shedding as of yet nor thickening.
Avodart has been
working good for me. its been a slow process but it seems to be working.
i did have a lot of shedding the 1st couple of months. but i haven't had
any shedding in a while and its starting to fill in around my temples.
my hair is unusual though. before Avodart the hair that was ravaged by
DHT would get really curly and wirey so that is how i noticed that was
the 1st stage of my hair falling out. after being on Avodart for about
9 months I've noticed that its starting to eliminate the wirey hairs and
my whole head of hair is starting to straighten out. im assuming that in
due time it will fill back in. so im still gonna stick with it for a full
year at least. and then evaluate my situation.
Noticed within 2
weeks that fallout dramatically reduced, and the crown area has shown noticeable
regrowth.
hair thickening,
less hair shedding, some hairline grew back
I saw shedding at
month 3 for about 2 1/2 weeks, followed by hair regrowth at months 4-5.
I am in month 6 and my hairloss has stopped and my hair feels much thicker.
think it took 3-4
months to see noticeable positive improvement in hair thickness. I'm still
waiting and hoping for some fill-in in my frontal hairline.
I have noticed a
definite, though gradual, thickening of my hair at the hairline and at
the crown. I began to notice results after about 3 months. I did not have
any noticeable initial shed.
Had thickening at
first for a month, then shed all the way through. Now hair seems to be
thickening again (had similar results with shedding on propecia).
Hair is slightly
thicker.. hairloss apparently stopped
I haven't noticed
any regrowth, but there does seem to be less shedding than with the propecia.
Definite thickening
of hair..looks very promising
Hair generally healthier
after 6 weeks. Still have mild shedding. No initial shed. Hair generally
thicker.
I had shedding for
the first 3-4 months, now I have no shedding at all and lose very little
hair in the shower, combing, etc.
hair loss slowed
considerably after a few months, started noticing slight regrowth after
about 6 months
I believe I have
responded well to Avodart, noticing some regrowth after about 3 months
use, and considerable regrowth in the next 3 months. I did have some initial
shedding, but it is unclear as to whether this was due to the drug, or
if it was naturally shedding quickly.
After three months
I started noticing some regrowth, however just recently I was having a
great deal of shedding that lasted for about 2 weeks but it stopped and
I'm hoping to go through another round of regrowth in the second six months
initial shedding,
noticed regrowth after 3 months
I just completed
my first six months of Avodart treatment for male pattern baldness. Prior
to taking Avodart, I had been using finasteride for over three
years with acceptable results.
My hair loss continued, but at a much slower rate.
Overall, the results I've experienced
since I began using Avodart have not been very dramatic. Initially,
during the first six to eight
weeks of treatment, I noticed that my hairloss appeared to stop entirely.
Then it returned with a vengeance. I'm aware that many people report shedding
during the first several months of treatment with finasteride, Minoxidil,
and Avodart. However, since I had never experienced shedding with finasteride
or monoxide, I was somewhat concerned.
Finally, around the six-month
mark, my shedding has stopped and I've even noticed a small amount of regrowth
- surprisingly even in the frontal area.
Since it appears that I may have
*turned the corner*
with my Avodart treatment, I'm
going to renew my
prescription for an additional
twelve months.
I'll let you know what happens.
John
I am looking to
get another prescription for Avodart because I am extremely pleased with
the results. I have noticed no side effects and I am starting to grow hair
back where I have been bald for 15+ years.
Response over the
last 6 months has been good, better than propecia on the crown, and at
least as good in the front.
Initial shedding
big time...hair loss minimal...waiting for new hair growth
I would say about
5 months before I saw any noticeable thickening of hair. I would like to
continue taking Avodart.
seem to have a few
thin hairs of about 1"
Like expected, the
rate of hair fall-out has dropped. There has been some shedding, but nothing
too unusual. By the third or fourth month on Avodart I noticed a large
decrease in the number of hairs I was losing in a given day. This treatment
seems to be gradually slowing down my hair loss. In fact, most of the remaining
hairs seem thicker and darker than they did just a few months ago. I'm
more than satisfied with this treatment after just five months of use.
I expect the condition of my hair to continue to improve over the next
year or so.
So far some regrowth
and slowing of loss, although loss continues to take place, seasonally
(Spring and Fall)
i saw results soon
after starting avodart. All is well and i am retaining my hair better then
when i was on propecia.
I noticed regrowth
after 5 months
I started noticing
a change after 2 months. I did have shedding initially but that has almost
gone away. My thinning is at the vertex and it appears to be beginning
to fill in.
No shedding, continual
slow improvement in vertex hair
no initial shedding.
Hair loss stopped after about 3 months. Started noticing thickening of
remaining hair after 5 months. Also started to grow new hair in crown area
after 5 months
Some sparse regrowth at the temples beginning at about
3 months. Not a lot of hair but definitely more than there was before.
No initial shedding.
hair loss seems
to have stopped and it is slowly coming back. Not user exactly on the time
frames.
months into using
Avodart I noticed vellus hairs along hairline and temple areas.
Hair is thicker
and don't see any more hair falling out.
Not much noticeable
effect after first 2 months. By five months bald spot mostly filled in.
Just started using Minoxidil 2% once every evening in six month. Seems
like it is helping.
Growing new hair
and thickening especially in crown.
no shedding. 3 months
- less fallout, 5 months - thicker hair
after 4 months of
using Avodart I notice regrowth throughout the entire scalp as well as
an overall thickening of existing hair
Shedding slowed
right away and regrowth stated in the 3-6 month period.
hair thickening
. no more hair loss within 4 mos
My hair has thickened
all over and filled in a bit in the back. It is still thin in the front.
I had noticed small
hairs within 7 days. I did have some shedding in the first 6 weeks however
I also had new growth at the same time. My 2 inch bald spot in the back
is the size of a nickel and my front hair line has lowered at least one
full inch in just 6 months
slight hair growth...noticed
after 3 mos. no shedding.
some shedding at
month 4 and 5. some regrowth at month 6
Hair loss in front
has stopped...less effective in back around crown area...overall, very
good at halting my hair loss and returning noticeable hair in the front...now
I look like a 39 year old man with a receding hair line instead of a balding
man with a potential horse shoe haircut
basically, my hair started gradually
thinning in my early 20s. Minoxidil slowed the thinning, and then Propecia
reversed my hair loss in the medium term...Avodart has similar effects
to Propecia but does a better job of regrowing noticeable cosmetic hair
in the front area
Gradual thickening, especially in the crown. Hairloss
ceased as of the 3 month mark
Progress is good.
Used propecia for 2 years. Started on avodart for 6 months and have noticed
increased density in crown region. No obviously sexual side effects either.
Thickening of hair
after 3 months. Moderate regrowth. Minimal shedding @ month 5-6. Overall,
very happy with results, no side effects noted.
I have noticed some
slight increase in thickness after an approximate 6 month period of use.
My general experience
with Avodart has been positive. I did not notice any initial shedding but
have noticed a slight thickening at the top of my scalp and a general holding
pattern elsewhere. Overall very pleased.
First couple or
months, similar to propecia, excessive shedding. After four months slowed
down. Hair became thicker and darker and areas in front and back slowly
growing back in.
Hair loss has slowed
or stopped. No significant regrowth yet. No shedding. Hair looks and feels
thicker.
Initial shedding,
still some continued shedding, no regrowth as yet. Previously taking Proscar
so will continue with treatment for full year.
I have had good
results after the first 3-4 months of treatment. Initially, my hair started
shedding at a faster rate, but I eventually noticed some growth. Most of
the growth has been at the top of the head, and I have seen my bald spot
at the back shrink
somewhat, although I still have
a bald area there. I have continued to use minoxidil in combination with
Avodart. I was a former Proscar
user and I think
Avodart is more effective.
I'm now almost 10 months on Avodart
(I'm using now cheap Avodart from
Europe) and everything is OK.
No shedding, no thinning and my hairline is
not going backwards, this is
the most important for me. I know the hairline
is a big problem area for the
most of men, even Propecia was not strong
enough to protect the hairline
of some men. I can see now that Avodart is
more effective then Propecia
Initial thickening, slight shedding after 5 months
Just a spot of hairloss, then a thickening in the back.
At the 7 month
Immediate decrease in hair loss. Started seeing regrowth
by month three.
I have noticed a general thickening of my hair, which
began about two months after starting avodart
I'm keeping the
hair I have with Avodart. I'd like to get the 12 month script.
Hair texture improved within a week. Hair began to thicken
within 2 months of treatment. Hair growth has continued with a few incidences
of shedding. The crown is entirely filled in at this point, but the front
remains a little thin.
So far it seems
to be similar to Propecia, no dramatic changes yet. Shedding comes and
goes. I am willing to try it for another year.
Hair thickening
throughout; better manageability of hair and a very noticeable decrease
in the amount of hair I lose on any given day.
Initial thinning
was noticed of smaller hairs. Biggest change was in the overall health
of hairs that were falling out. The smaller hairs seemed to stop after
the first 3-4 months and the overall size of the hairs falling out seemed
to increase. Need to continue avodart therapy to further see if hair growth
appears
Shed at first, now
hair is thickening and new growth
I have noticed regrowth
that continues to take place to date. Started noticing regrowth at about
month four of use no noticeable shedding took place for me.
about 4 or 5 months
I started to regrow hair
I had been taking
propecia since the late 90's, so there was already regrowth taking place.
There seems to be slightly more regrowth with Avodart.
Results for me are
really good; no side effects and I have considerably more
regrowth than I expected and
a much better hairline than when I was 30 (5 years ago)!!!
Good response. Thickening
in one month.
I had some shedding
but now it's filling in.
I have been using
for about 6 months and I felt that I had some addition thickness after
about 4 months of use, but it has remained stable with no additional loss.
Back seems somewhat
thicker. Some thinning of the frontal area of my scalp has occurred since
switching from Propecia to Avodart. Hopefully it will grow back with time
while continuing to take Avodart.
I never noticed
any shedding. I started to notice some new growth in the crown area after
about 3 months
My response to Avodart
has been good. I have maintained my current amount of hair. I had taken
Propecia for almost 4 years before I switched to Avodart six months ago.
I have noticed that my scalp itches much less with Avodart than Propecia
and the results are at least as good.
Hair looking much
thicker - other people have commented. Hairline at front has started to
fill in. Was about 2 months before noticed anything and recently so after
6 months, its really started to have an effect. Generally, thickening of
hair after 3 months
Dear Medical Wellness Center,
My progress with Avodart has been
excellent. I have
had a cessation of hair fallout
and substantial
regrowth in both the temple and
crown areas. Also, I
have experienced no side effects,
sexual or otherwise.
I am very pleased with Avodart
and thank you for your
help. I shall renew my prescription
via your web site
shortly.
Thank you,
John T xxxxxxxx
I believe the dutasteride has worked better than did Propecia
for me.
I noticed Avodart
has been maintaining hair, while decreasing my hair loss.
at 3 months noticed
thickening in crown continued progress to date
I have experienced
thickening in the crown area and a noticeable lessening of fallout.
used for six months,
no real initial shedding, no thickening either, maybe hair loss rate slowed
a little
LITTLE INITIAL SHEDDING
AT 1-2 MONTHS, HAIR LOSS ABATING AT 3-4 MONTHS, LITTLE BUT NOTICEABLE NEW
GROWTH ON VERTEX AT 5-6 MONTHS
Regrowth began at
around 6 weeks and has maintained or possibly continued
Finasteride started
to lose some of its effectiveness after about 3 years.
At 1mg/day it was starting to
lose out to aging I suppose. Avodart at .5 mg/day seems
as good as finasteride at 5 mg.
Avodart can alter the dryness or oiliness of your hair.
It seems that when you go on
or off Avodart you experience a change in scalp oiliness.
Initial shedding was light and
I never got worried by the amounts that initially fall out.
I believe that both propecia
and avodart have negative effect on sex drive. While it doesn't cause
impotence it maybe causes a 20%
decrease.
Results... it seems to be helping
the front better than the back crown area. This is almost the opposite
of what propecia was doing. I
believe that both of these drugs are good at keeping the hair you have,
but
they don't bring back hair that
you lost more than 2 years ago. My theory is that hair that goes dormant
more
than 2-3 years is gone forever.
In conclusion I would say that
Avodart works better for me then 5 mg finasteride. It can effect the oiliness
of your
scalp. Scalp itch goes away totally
on Avodart. Trying to stretch your supply of .5 mg Avodart by taking one
pill every other day seems
to cause giant fluctuations in
scalp oil and itching. One thing I noticed is that if you ever go off finasteride/avodart
for say 6 months you will lose
alot of hair. You pretty much
become dependent on it.
I started a maintenance program
of finasteride about 4 years ago. Then switched to Avodart about 6 months
ago.
I am fairly sure this has allowed
me to slow the rate of hairloss to about 10% of what it would be otherwise.
I am also fairly positive that
all topical treatments are snake oil. Mainly because they are always mixed
with alcohol or
propylene glycol and other skin
irritants that cause more harm than good.
Some things that help hair more
than topicals include swimming. My sister commented that the frontal hair
seemed alot thicker
after 6 months of lap swimming.
I don't know if its the combination of better overall health, increased
blood flow during exercise, the washing away from excess oil, or the increased
circulation due to the coldness of the water. But strangely lap swimming
in a cold pool does seem to prevent hair loss.
This was in my late 20's.
-dxxxx, age 35
I have strictly
maintained my .5MG daily dose, and it has worked wonders. Some hair started
growing in anterior scalp area and crown within a month, and has since
filled in quite a bit. I am extremely pleased with the treatment so far.
Avodart is an excellent product, with great results and little or no side
effects
My hair is thicker...
works better than propecia.
less shedding, hair regrowth, noticed changes after 2
months.
Less shedding, and
some thickening in back
Into the sixth month I notice no further hair loss and
generalized thickening everywhere except the frontal hair line. The crown
is very slowly filling in, and at the least has stopped balding. Nothing
significant until month 5, where it was noticeably thicker
Minor shedding for first three months.
Some noticeable small hairs or
front scalp.
No loss after 6 months.
I started losing
my hair when I turned 19 and have slowed the progress with Rogaine and
Propecia. Now avodart is continuing too help slow the process and I have
started too grow hair in areas that were very thin.
Update: I've started using Avodart in May 2003. During
the first few weeks I did suffer from libido problems but that disappeared,
and I had a bout of shedding around the 4th to 6th week. As of now, my
hair loss has slowed but not stopped, and I don't see signs of regrowth.
I've been balding for 25 years now, so I'm not optimistic about regrowth.
The condition of my hair seems to have improved since taking Avodart.
Kind regards,
I have begun to notice hair regrowth in my balding areas.
Although it is not thick yet it is showing improvement.
Initial shedding
in first month, growth after 3 months, plateau with no additional hair
growth by 5th month
I have had am am still having regrowth.
During the first 3 months significant shedding occurred.
From that point on I noticed a slight thickening over my entire head.
avodart has allowed
me to keep the hair that I have and my temples have filled in somewhat.
Hair ceased thinning shortly after starting dosages and
has continued to improve with each passing week.
Hair loss started
slowing down after about 6 months. Not much regrowth.
No shedding. Hair is beginning to thicken and there does
appear to be some regrowth.
My head of hair seems much fuller.
Some shedding, apparent thickening of hair, no regrowth
yet.
Within 3 months noticed thickening of hair in forward
and top area of scalp. 6 months - could tell a reduction in balding area
radius.
After roughly a month there was a noticeable decrease
in shedding and a slight increase in regrowth. Since then there has been
a noticeable thickening in the hair and virtual cease of shedding.
I was a good responder to Propecia with no side effects
and the same has occurred on Avodart. I have experience no serious sheds,
maintained all hair that was kept from propecia, and thickened most to
all of the vellus hairs in the thin areas. Uncertain if any actual regrowth
has occurred but subjectively I would evaluate myself as gaining cosmetic
improvement from Avodart over Propecia.
My response to the medication has been excellent. I had
used propecia before but Avodart has promoted even thicker regrowth which
was noticeable with a few months. I combine the treatment with Rogaine.
My response to Avodart treatment had been excellent. I
had absolutely no side effects. I have had no shedding while on Avodart.
Avodart began working for me about a month and a half into treatment, first
reducing hair fall out in the shower from about 30 hairs a day to about
10 hairs a day. My hair also began to feel and look thicker. At about the
3 month mark hair fall out in the shower was reduced to about 5 hairs a
day. I also began to see some regrowth in the crown area where I had previously
been thinning.
Response has been positive, no shedding (less even), thicker
hair overall, regrowth in vertex and denser in many areas, frontline still
recedes albeit slowly...I can provide baseline hormone tests and picture
proof when I hit the 6 month mark
I have been on Avodart
for about 9 months now, after about 3 months I noticed my hair was thicker,
less shedding and the crown area had filled in some more too.
I noticed change
at about 3 months, my hairloss seemed to slow down. By six months i could
tell that I have some hair regrowth.
I did not notice
any shedding in the beginning because i was already shedding. I have noticed
thickening in the back and over the top. I have not noticed any thickening
or regrowth in the frontal temple regions, but I have also not noticed
any additional loss in the front hairline area.
RE: Avodart experience
Well have been on Avodart for
just over 4 months now. And have only noticed two things up to this point.
The first is that the hair shedding has dropped significantly. Maybe by
about 75% roughly speaking. The second is that new hair has sprouted and
grown about a quarter inch outward, in the temples and crown, from the
hairline as compared to when I started taking the pills. Other than that,
haven't really noticed any physiological or behavioral side-effects to
date. Will be interesting to see the progress after a year on the medication.
Sincerely, James
As with propecia, I did not notice any regrowth and my
hair line continued to recede. However, it has been a little over a month
since I stopped using Avodart and my hair loss is progressing rapidly.
I believe that Avodart was slowing down the progression of my hair loss.
This is why I want to continue taking Avodart to treat my hair loss.
I HAVE BEEN USING AVODART FOR APPROXIMATELY 6 MONTHS OR
SO AND NOTICED IMPROVEMENT ALMOST IMMEDIATELY. I HAVE NOT HAD ANY MAJOR
SHEDDING LIKE I EXPERIENCED WITH PROPECIA AND HAVE CONTINUED TO HAVE GOOD
RESULTS
Initially after
starting Avodart my scalp felt less greasy and dryer. My front hair line
responded strong. In fact, my hairline was completely restored.
My change was within 60 days
- Many of the hairs that were still in place thickened up - meaning shaft
size. I haven't experienced any side effects at this point.
I started to notice
a change after 3 months and now have a very full head of hair. I wasn't
that bad to begin with, and am making sure that I catch the thinning early.
Did not have any shedding problems.
I grew back MUCH hair with NO side effects. This drug
should be marketed to the public for male pattern baldness. Its expensive,
but worth it.
In the beginning, I stopped losing hair and gained back
quite a bit. 3 months later, after much regrowth, I went through a series
of major sheds. Since then, I've regained what I lost. Overall, no complaints.
I noticed thickening
within 3 months, then INCREDIBLE regrowth within the 6 months. Everyone
noticed. It was amazing. I am so pleased. Why doesn't Glaxo approve this
drug for hair loss? No shedding, or side effects. No more Receding.

Stopped hair loss ; Noticing some slight regrowth
Had a minor shed 6 weeks into taking Avodart. hair condition
has improved and hair loss has slowed significantly. However, hair that
is being lost is being replaced; therefore, the loss continues but at a
slower rate. I've been taking Avodart for 9 months, so I'm hoping that
after taking for a year I will begin noticing regrowth, particularly of
those hairs lost most recently.
I seen some improvement
after six months mainly thickening of hair.
I first started
noticing that my hair was getting better right after 3 months. And my hair
has continued to get a little better to this day, which is 6 months on
avodart. My hair is a lot thicker and fuller and I've gotten regrowth in
the frontal hairline. Im very pleased with my results thus far.
I was already taking
Propecia, so there was hair regrowth underway. There seems to be denser
growth with Avodart.
It's been about
14 months. There has been a slow but steady regrowth of hair.
I noticed changes after 2 months. There is some regrowth
and thickening in certain areas.
I feel I am a good responder to Avodart. After about 4
months on Avodart I noticed a stop to my hair loss and began to see moderate
regrowth.
after 3-4 months
I started to notice some regrowth. there was no initial shedding.
I began Avodart on November 2,
2003. My response to Avodart treatment has been excellent. I have had absolutely
no side effects I have had no shedding while on Avodart. Avodart began
working for me about a month and a half into treatment, first reducing
hair fall out in the shower from about 30 hairs a day to about 10 hairs
a day. My hair also began to feel and look thicker. At about the 3-month
mark (early February) hair fall out in the shower was reduced to about
5 hairs a day. I also began to see some regrowth in the crown area where
I had previously been thinning. I notice no side effects, whatsoever and
Avodart is working fantastic. Now right up to the end of March/beginning
of April I continue to see regrowth in the crown area. Also scalp itching
has completely gone away. I am very pleased with my positive response from
Avodart. I take and always took Avodart “exactly” as Medical Wellness prescribed
– 1, 0.5 mg capsule per day. I would definitely recommend Medical Wellness
Center to anyone who would be interested in improving e!
their appearance/and or quality
of life. I want to continue treatment. I am requesting 12 refills of Avodart
(0.5 mg), for up to 1 year. Thank you
I began noticing
hair in my ball cap. The more I ignored it the more hair I began to notice.
I didn't know what to do, and in January 2003 I got some Avodart. I was
a little unsure, and a little uneasy; but to my surprise I actually did
start regrowing hair on the back of my head. I was ecstatic. After about
four months of treatment I didn't find hair in my hat anymore, and at the
end of six months there was noticeable improvement in the size of the the
thinning area. Unfortunately, I didn't have the money in July to get another
prescription, but now I'm back and ready to take this thing head on.
****I began treatment January
29, 2003. Everyday after work I had a ritual. I would look inside my hat
and dispose of each hair I had lost during the day. My hair was thinning
in the back at what seemed a horrendous rate. I wanted so badly to get
excited about this new drug, but would not allow myself. I sat, each day,
pulling hair from my hat. Then in March, I began noticing a decrease in
the amount of hair I was finding each day. I began taking "Super Hair Energizer"
vitamins and minerals along with the Avodart in March, and by April I was
pulling 1-2 hairs from my hat daily. Hair regrowth began late June/early
July. I couldn't believe my eyes. The thinning area was actually filling
in. My hair was noticeably thicker and fuller. By the end of my sixth month
treatment you could hardly see any signs of hair loss. Unfortunately I
had no money at the end of July and was unable to refill my prescription.
I took this time to document my hair!
loss since I went off Avodart
July 30th 2003. I maintained all my regrowth until December 2003. Since
then I have gradually started losing again, but even now (8 months after
being off Avodart) my hair is still fuller and thicker than when I initially
went on the drug. I'm very excited about going back on and ending my hairloss
once and for all.
Some initial shedding
but good results afterwards. changes occurred in about 3 months
I have been using Dutasteride for approximately one year
and it appears to be more effective than Propecia.
I noticed thickening
around the crown area of the scalp.
SOME THICKENING

Some regrowth after
3 months. Regrowth peaked at six months. Hair is thicker up front, less
so on crown.

No shedding; hair

I am starting to
see the regrowth of hair across the top of my head in the form of tiny
blond hairs. Will see if they thicken and darken in color over time.
Response has been
very positive. Hair thickening, some regrowth and no shedding
Since beginning treatment with Avodart I have noticed
that I have significantly cut down the amount of hair shedding on a regular
basis. I did go through an initial shedding phase for about 2 months but
have not had a shedding episode since. No regrowth to speak of but I have
noticed some thickening.
I've had slight thickening of my hair, and scalp is less
oily.
Satisfactory maintenance no new growth
little regrowth after use. No
more hair loss.
Definitely added
hair.
i have noticed less
hair in my brush after the 3rd month. im very very pleased with results
Hair loss stopped maybe some regrowth
3 months mild regrowth
started
had no initial shedding, but have seen a drastic decrease
in the amount of shedding over the past few months and have also seen regrowth
along the hairline in the front so much that I actually pluck some out
from time to time. I have also seen a increase in the thickness of my hair
and have been very happy so far with the avodart. I have not experienced
ANY side effects at all.
Noticed slowing of receding hairline. Some thickening.
Thicker hair in 3 months, no shedding
Initial shedding lasted about 2 months - then significant
thickening and after 1 year all new growth has been maintained
noticed hair regrowth

no shedding. some thickening.
hair loss slowed down hair in crown thickened after about
eight months
no real response, just maintaining thus far
I have notice limited
regrowth in the crown but none yet around the front. I have had some shedding
but it varies.
After 1.5 months
I began to see new hair. I have been on it for 9 mos now and have had comments
from my wife and barber that there has been a noticeable improvement. I
went from a Norwood 5B to a Norwood 4. I have been loosing hair since I
was 17 so didn't expect a total regrowth, but there definitely have been
positive results. I have no side effects at all as far as libido goes.
Hair loss seems to have slowed down. Hair seems fuller.
Loss slowed/stopped
Had some initial shedding after a couple months...but
hair loss has stopped and slow but continued regrowth has occurred.
Noticeable results in 3 months.
Almost complete regrowth of all my hair at 6 months. Amazing!
experienced some filling in after 3 months, gradual continuance
this second three month period.
It took about 14
months before I noticed significant improvement on Avodart. It has filled
in the top of my head very well. I had no shedding phase
My response to Avodart went well. Baby hairs I had for
years using Propecia finally matured and grew..
maintain hair, small regrowth after 3 months
Some regrowth at crown fairly quickly
Hair loss stopped
in about 4 months ; Some hair regrowth on front in 8 months ; Regrowth
on top of head in 6 months
hair loss slowed
No initial shedding. Definite
thickening & minimal regrowth within 3 - 4 mos. No change after that.
Initial shedding and then fine growth
Hair regrowth, less thinning
I think it stabilizes hair loss for me.
I have been taking Avodart for approximately 18 months.
During that time, I have noticed a decrease in the amount of shedding and
have maintained my hairline. My crown has not noticeably gotten worse and
it seems to be maintaining or at least slowing down the progression of
hair loss. It is a genuine comfort, as well, to be on the most advanced
treatment of hair loss.
Initially took 6 months to notice changes. Experienced
regrowth all around and hair density increased
Approximately around the 4th month I noticed regrow around
the temples but then had a period of shedding in the 5th month.
after about three months the hair became thicker, stronger,
less breakage,
I had no problems at all and my hair loss has completely
stopped. I also experienced regrowth at the front near my hairline.
I was using propecia prior to avodart and it seems like
it has worked even better
hair is thickening all over notice major change about
six months into treatment. this stuff is much better than finasteride
Good responder. No shedding of hair, and only experienced
slow and steady regrowth.
39 and receding hair line with mildly diffuse thinning.
Switched from proscar to avodart with moderately better results. It is
maintaining my current hair line
I had shedding at
first for the the first couple of months. Hare fall out seemed to slow
and re-thickening started at about 10 months into usage.
Loss stopped, some
regrowth.
Some regrowth, mostly stable
Great. Regrowth, thickening
My hairloss has stabilized and pretty much stopped. It's
difficult to estimate when this happened. The regrowth has been minimal.
I don't recall any shedding.
stopped hair loss, some thickening
of hair, and possible regrowth on the vertex and top of head. no regrowth
in the temporal region as of yet
Basically no more loss, it has
been stabilized. Little if no regrowth to date. Been on 1 pill a day since
January 2003.
Scalp feels much
better still; however, hair growth has been minimal at best. Loss has been
minimized, though, and that's good.
Modest regrowth
after 6 months
not much change until 1 year mark that's when hair thinning
stopped and hair was thick and full
Thinning has been retarded, some thickening occurring.
Slowing of hair loss, thicker looking hair....seems to
be working well
current hair count
has maintained
6 months - thicker frontal region - no noticeable shedding
I have had a slow,
continuous thickening of my hair over the entire period I've taken dutasteride.
The crown, in particular, has thickened significantly
The first month there was a small amount of shedding.
After which hair loss seemed to be noticeably reduced. The following few
months, the existing thinning hair started to thicken slowly for the next
few months. And finally the hair line has appeared to move forward about
a quarter inch.
Started losing hair at hairline and crown at 20. Slow
progression but very noticeable by age 28. At age 28 started on 1.25 mg
daily of proscar. Proscar halted additional loss. Switched to avodart Dec
2002, and additional thickening occurred. Added minoxidil and hair thickened
even more.
This will be a second refill
prescription - maintaining very thick hair, no regrowth below existing
hairline but thickening from hairline back.
no more shedding.
no reversal but hl has stopped
It took about six
months to notice changes in density, after shedding for the first few months.
after 3-5 months
cessation of loss little regrowth
Began in October, experienced great results, But have
been shedding slowly since May.
I am regrowing hair! It took about 6 months to start,
no initial shedding was noticed.
After over a year
of use I am happy with the maintenance and moderate regrowth No shedding.
Healthier hair, fuller look
thickening and regrowth at about 3 to 4 months
Hair is regrowing
Much less shedding, hair won't fall out nearly as much
when you run your hand through it, hair seems to be coming in more thick
Avodart seems to
have slowed the hair loss.
There has been no shedding due
to to Avodart.
Some hair loss does continue.
During the first month hair completely stopped falling
- 2nd month I noticed some shedding -days when in the shower there would
be tons of hair and some days nothing. At about the 3rd month I noticed
that the hair was much thicker and darker. At 6 month now I have noticed
a lot of new growth in the front, they are vellus and thin but I believe
are growing. My hair is also darker in color and is definitely thicker.
Thickening of hair
after 1 month
Slowly thickening around the
crown and top of head.
Seems to be working, have received comments from my friends,
probably took two to three months
began noticing regrowth
immediately
3 mos for gains
to begin, initial shedding 1-3 months. Hair seemed to become thicker and
healthier, substantial regrowth.
I noticed new hair
growing in my hairline and the consistency of my hair has gotten thicker
Hair loss has been stopped, some hairline regrowth
I've been pleasantly pleased. but patience is the answer
3 months before seeing growth
loss has stopped, little regrowth
All good, hair much thicker
some thickening
and crown hair growth
Hairloss has effectively
stopped. Not sure if any regrowth yet.
No initial shedding to my knowledge, a general thickness
and strength--notice only normal hair off shower/etc
'it's been 2 years
since i have been on it- have not noticed any growth but it has slowed
the losing process somewhat
Had initial shedding.
Slight thickening of hair. No noticeable regrowth. Slower rate of hair
loss.
no noticeable changes
yet
Have stabilized hair loss but no regrowth.
maintain hair only
Maintained current
hair volume
Months 1-3 exhibited
little change in hair loss, with small degree of shedding apparent in month
4. Months 5 to 6 included some regrowth of hair at the temples and crown,
with minimal shedding.
Seems to be slowly
working
Not much regrowth, basically just maintenance
I don't have much
regrowth but it seems to have stopped falling
I don't have much
regrowth but it seems to have stopped falling
Hair loss has been
very slow before taking Avodart, so after one and a half years on the drug,
it's hard to say whether it has actually stopped the hair loss
Around 2 months after starting the treatment I noticed
a thickening
My hair condition
felt thicker within a couple of weeks and then an increase in shedding
after about a month. My hair did not get any thinner after taking avodart
and I'm sure that my hair overall has become thicker. Definite regrowth
in some areas also where the thinning was most noticeable.
had already been
taking Propecia for a number of years. I have seen great benefit in the
regrowth of my hair with Propecia. I have maintained this improvement after
switching to Avodart.
Significant improvement,
hair regrowth, do not lose hair anymore
In the last year
there has not been much thickening but there has been no increased shedding.
The back has filled in a bit as well.
Seems to have been
arrested / greatly slowed by Avodart, which I have been taking for six
months. Prior to Avodart was taking Propecia for the past six years. Before
Propecia I used Minoxidil (which did not seem to have much effect). I switched
to Avodart six months ago because Propecia, which had worked well for a
number of years, seemed to be losing effectiveness during the last year
and half that I was taking it.
When I first started
Avodart I noticed an initial thickening of my hair, and what appeared to
be a little regrowth on the sides. However, I have not noticed much change
since those initial improvements. I am overall very pleased with my results
because I have not noticed any further hair loss since I started Avodart.
Hair diameter seems
thicker. Can't tell if any regrowth has occurred.
My hair seems to be thicker although
I still seem to be receding in the front
It has slowed/stop the gradual
loss of hair
I though there was progress in
the first year and now I don't see much change. If anything it might be
getting worse.
6 months after taking
avodart, I noticed thickness & less shedding
thickening and some regrowth
initial shedding at 3 months, then continue regrowth throughout
no regrowth, shedding slowed slightly perhaps
As soon as noticeable thinning/ shedding became a concern,
I tried Rogaine for a brief period, then decided Propecia was a better
treatment option for me. After two years on Propecia, its effectiveness
seemed to wane, so I have graduated to Avodart and am very pleased with
the results.
"some initial shedding,
then some noticeable thickening"
maintenance of hair.
Initial shedding in the front temple area. It did stabilize
Avodart has help
reverse the hair loss quite a bit.
Hair thickened 3 months after treatment, no shedding.
slowing growing,
about 50 percent growth
Hair loss slowed
down
I've noticed a decrease in the rate of hair loss since
beginning use of Avodart approximately two years ago. Shedding stages normally
don't last for more than a week and for the most part, I'm satisfied with
my results. I believe continued use of Avodart will allow the hair loss
process to continue at a much slower rate that it otherwise would.
No initial shedding,
cessation of loss
Apparent stabilization of hair loss
Shedding started to decrease after about 5 Months
Seems to have curtailed hair loss, no notice of excessive
shedding, but had been using propecia before. I cannot tell if it is working,
but I do not notice a loss in hair overall, so I assume it is maintaining
at least.
It seemed like I
had some shedding at first, but then that stopped and it seemed to maintain
my hair, haven't noticed a lot of regrowth yet.
Thickening of hair
everywhere, intermittent shed phases.
slowed hairloss
People saying my hair looks thick
My hair has been growing back a lot, even in front
I had thickening of hair. Improvement
After about 3 mos.,
I started noticing some new hair growth in the frontal areas. Also, overall
hear on top of head is thicker since using Avodart.
moderate regrowth first 6 months. Have maintained ever
since.
Some initial shedding.
Hairloss has stabilized, but no regrowth yet.
I have noticed my hairloss when I was 22 years of age.
I have taken propecia with good results but results have diminished after
some time. I know have been taking avodart for over a year with good results
so far.
Definite slowing of hair loss. Slight regrowth, thickening.
Side effects - none
shedding - none
results were neutral, nothing
noticeable so I stopped.
Hairline began to recede at age 25. Began Propecia at
age 26, recession continued. Taking avodart for the past 18 months has
halted recession completely. No regrowth, however.
Shed started 8 weeks in for 2 weeks, then good steady
growth since.
Slow regrowth
Hair has stopped falling out
Began noticing thinning at 26, began using Rogaine. At
age 30, began taking Propecia. At age 34, began taking Avodart instead
of Propecia. The thinning does not appear to have become worse since I
began with Propecia, but I also haven't seen new hair growth. However,
I am only interested in not losing more hair.
I have not noticed any shedding
or thickening. However, I have also not noticed any further loss since
taking the medication.
I noticed regrowth
after 5 months
no changes...good or bad
regrowth since first year. I have continued progress.
I have had a positive experience with avodart. Slowly
but surely, my hair has started to fill out again. I would say about 6
months after i started using Avodart, I started to notice a change.
Yes, every couple of months I do find that some shedding
occurs. After the first year i did notice some regrowth, but now after
two years on avodart, i notice my hair beginning to thin again, and I do
notice some receding in the front, and hope that that does not continue,
but i have no choice but to remain on avodart. Do you think my body has
become immune to the drug.
have a thickening of hair. no shedding. had regrowth of
hair. noticed changes in about three months
Appeared to be less shedding of hair after 3/4 months.
good response, regrowth, after several months
good regrowth, using combined with minoxidil
slow thickening
initial shedding immediately, thickening after 1 month
Noticed thickening after several months. I noticed a gradual

to dutasteride and that has been batter.

Experienced significant

thickening
shed and regrowth
Progression has
been very good. Vellus hairs are more noticeable than ever. Hair seems
to appear thicker than before. Have been taking avodart for more than a
year and usually shed every 3-4 months. Overall, I think if I have not
have taken avodart, my hair would be a lot thinner and further recede in
the temple area.
No shedding, thickening
and regrowth on top
Been using Avodart
for nearly 2 years, prior to that used Propecia for over 3 years. Since
switching to Avodart, I saw a noticeable density improvement at months
3-6, and have maintained those gains to present.
Thanks to Propecia
and (now) Avodart, I have held on to "Class 2" for the most part for 7
years now.
When I was about
18 or 19 I started noticing that my hair seemed to be thinning in a couple
places. I wasn't sure if I was just over analyzing at first, but after
another year and a half or so, I realized that my hair had definitely thinned
out in some areas. I first tried Propecia, which I don't know that I experienced
any progress from, and then switched to Avodart this year and have already
noticed a difference
Initial shed lasting approx 2-3 months. No improvement
over the next few months. Things appear to slowly be progressing as I near
month 6.
decrease in shedding/
6 months
Noticed growth within
a month. The hair still continues to grow and the product is working.
Initial shedding,
slight thickening and regrowth.
Hair thickened after
approximately one month.
I noticed that my
shedding severely stopped within 3 months. I don't think I have noticed
any hair regrowth yet but putting a stop to my hairloss is has been great
for my self esteem.
further hairloss
limited
Up to 3 months:
initial shedding
3-6 months: shedding abated and
hair loss slowed
6-12 months: hair thickened and
new regrowth
experiencing noticeable general re-growth and new small
hairs at temples as well as slow or stop of noticeable new loss. Results
were noticeable after 6-8 months of use.
I have not lost
additional hair while on Avodart. I did not experience initial shedding.
I have had slight regrowth near the center of my head (but not the front).
no fallout thicker

Noticed growth after 3 months
I am now growing hair. The hair is coming in all
over my head. The hair I have

ongoing shedding-
but constant regrowth. I've been on for about 1 year- and is maintaining
well- concerned about the loss of libido
was previously using
propecia, and experiencing greater hair growth using avodart
Avodart treatment
has gone well. I have noticed a decrease in hair loss. No side effects
Slowing of loss. General thickening. Slow regrowth.
2 months hair got

moderate hair regrowth in temple region
can't really tell
Seems ot help stop hairloss and regrow some new hair
At about the six month mark I noticed thicker hair. It
has gotten better over time
Positive response.
Hair has regrown somewhat, no thinning.
Excellent maintenance
with some regrowth all over the scalp. On dutasteride 0.5mg twice weekly
for 2 yrs. No side effects of note.
seems to have stayed
the same for the last year, perhaps a little loss, using Rogaine too.
After about 3-4
months of initial shedding, the hair on the top of my head and on the crown
has filled back in (I have had grafts placed on the front). Overall, my
hair is still pretty thin on the top and crown, however, I am no longer
slick bald in these places, as was formerly the case. The current state
appears to be the equilibrium condition, which is acceptable to me.
Noticed hair somewhat
stronger but no new regrowth as of yet, and yes, shedding at initial dosing
I didn't experience
initial shedding, however, I did experience a tremendous shed after a few
months on my crown area. I do have to admit that there were periods of
time (1 week) occasionally where I ran out or forgot to take my medication.
I want to give this 1 year total without skipping any doses.
I am seeing continued
improvement in thickness. And I also see a decrease in hair shedding.
Incredibly positive
results. I have been on AvoDart for one year.
After 6 months,
my hair started to get thick, and the shedding stopped.
lots of shedding
on the left hairline and overall thinning.
My hair loss began
suddenly when I was twenty. I began treatment with Rogaine almost immediately,
but the drug only slowed the hair loss. In 1998, I began using Propecia.
Propecia further slowed the hair loss but failed to halt its progression.
I switched to Avodart this year and have been impressed with the results.
Avodart has essentially
stopped my hair loss.
I have taken Avodart
for approximately the last 1.5 years as prescribed by Medical Wellness
Center. My last prescription was filled at the Medical Wellness Center
in late November 2003. Prior to Avodart, I took propecia for approximately
3 years. Over the last almost 5 years I have not experienced any additional
hair loss. I also have experienced no side effects from my usage of Avodart.
My hair around my
temples has regrown 50-60%, and it is almost as thick as the rest of my
hair. I started noticing hairloss by my temples when I was 22, and several
months later, it was very noticeable no matter how I combed my hair. I
started taking avodart approx. 1 year ago, and my hairloss has all but
stopped, and most of my hair has grown back.
NO INITIAL SHEDDING,

BEGINNING AFTER 3 MONTHS OF USAGE
hair has thickened
to the point there is just diffuse thinning in front
Hair loss appears to have stopped. Moderate regrowth in
crown area. Overall I'm pleased with the results and wish to continue treatment.
Thinning in frontal area and
crown. Gradually becoming more pronounced. Began using minoxidil in early
30's, switched to finasteride in late 30's. For the past year have been
using dutasteride. I decided it would be beneficial to switch to dutasteride
when I noticed that the amount of shedding was beginning to increase again,
after a number of years of good results on finasteride. Dutasteride appears
to have stopped additional hair loss, and there has been moderate regrowth
in the crown area.
Hair thickened after
couple of months, particularly in the crown.

Seems to have slowed

I stopped my hair
loss. But my regrowth is limited.
What I speculate
to be shedding at about 3 months of use, began seeing some modest regrowth
at 5 months
I was on propecia
for 3 years before starting Avodart. But after 6 months, I noticed an increase
in overall thickness, and many of the vellus hairs that had started with
propecia went terminal. After 2 years, even more terminal hairs have sprouted.
I have not noticed any sheds, but also did not on Propecia
some thickening and stopped loss
Just slowing of thinning. Many some growth at the crown.
Normal shedding
seems to be continuing, but some slight thickening of existing hair after
3 months. Possibly some slight regrowth in crown after about three months.

begin to thicken in the back and front.
I seem to be losing

slowed since.

my response to avodart
got better as time went on. At the beginning results were minimal but as
months passed by I began to notice that the hair i had was beginning to
get thicker. The hair i have now is still continuing to get thicker as
well.
Began to notice my hairloss when
I was in college. It was too severe but i started to notice alot of hair
on my pillow that I slept on. After graduating from college my hair continued
to get thinner and fall out. Since I started taking avodart I have been
able to slow down the hair loss and it appears that the hair i have now
is actually getting thicker
i have been using avodart for 1 1/2 years i have had moderate
success with the treatment
slight thickening
Noticed changes
in 3-4 months. Initial shedding, followed by thickening of hair and more
new hair.
Using only AVODART
for treatment. After about five months, I have noticed some regrowth. I
had no initial shedding. I also feel the hair on the sides and back look
healthier. For the first month I did experience a slight upset stomach
but have not experienced any since. As far as sexual effects, I did experience
a loss of desire for sex during the first 3 weeks but went back to normal.
Response was good-
experienced initial shed and then follow up shed around 3 months- hair
has thickened significantly following
I was using Propecia before with positive results. Avodart
thickened and broadened the regrowth.
I had initial shedding
then regrowth. I am now maintaining the new hair I have. I only take one
pill of .5mg a day and it seems to work just great. I have had no side
effects. I love this product! I still shed about every three months or
so then I get new hair and continued regrowth.
some thickening
and darkening in upper back
My response to Avodart treatment has been excellent. I
have had absolutely no side effects. I have had no shedding while on Avodart.
Avodart began working for me about a month and a half into treatment, first
reducing hair fall out in the shower from about 30 hairs a day to about
10 hairs a day. My hair also began to feel and look thicker. At about the
3 month mark hair fall out in the shower was reduced to about 5 hairs a
day. I also began to see some regrowth in the crown area where I had previously
been thinning. Now right up to the 6 month mark I continue to see regrowth
in the crown area. Also scalp itching has completely gone away.
From month 7 onward my crown had
completely filled. My hair looks thick and full. Avodart really does work.
I am very pleased with my positive response from Avodart. I want to continue
treatment. Thank you.

Avodart has totally

in '00 which helped a little. Ever since I started avodart, my condition
has been much better.

3 months
Thickening of existing hair all over.
I haven't seen any
changes, maybe slight improvement, but it is really hard to tell. As long
as I maintain my current status, I will be basically satisfied.
Shedding slowed
down dramatically after about 3 months. Hair has started to thicken in
the problem areas.
Within 2 weeks the
shedding of the hair stopped completely. I don't have falling hair anymore.
Maybe a couple when I run my fingers through my hair but that's it. Within
2 months I had increased my hair density, even my wife was amazed. My hair
is definitely thicker. -- before taking avodart, i lose a lot of hair just
by running my fingers through my hair, and combing, but now, it's not an
issue, even if i pull my hair.
Hair is not falling out. I have
noticed slight regrowth at the crown of my head.

results by 9-03. gradual thickening continues

existing hair. Although no regrowth I am very happy with the product
THicker fuller hair.
Some regrowth on frontal lobe.
Kept a log for several
months early on. In 2-3 months hair seemed sustained and many new hairs

3 months before
I noticed changes
Been taking Avodart since Dec. 2002. My hair loss (diffuse
thinning) seems to have significantly slowed since.
It took many months
(I don't remember how many exactly) before I noticed any changes in my
hair loss. When Avodart kicked in my hair loss stabilized. I've had no
shedding.
i noticed thickening
almost immediately, hairloss stopped and the crown is shrinking.
i noticed after
the first month that my hair was thicker and looked healthier. i noticed
small "baby hairs" at the hairline but they never really got any bigger
than that. it has kept my hairline from regressing any and that's mainly
what i figured it would do. no shedding at all no side effects that i have
noticed.
It has slowed the
progression of my hair loss but has not stopped it completely.
Overall, has slowed
down rate of hair loss but has not stopped it.
Prior to use, scalp
would feel itchy at times. After use, no itchiness, plus some regrowth.
Was on propecia
for several years and switched to avodart two years ago with great results.
has stopped hairloss and no side effects
I have had great results. No shedding and only gradual
continued thickness of my hair. Much better than Propecia and I am pleased
with the results.
I took Propecia for 4 yrs and
then experienced shedding. I then took Avodart for the past 6 months and
I think it is very effective.
I believe that it
has remained the same.
It kept my current amount...that's all I want.
It grew some hair
back, now mostly maintaining.
:: More of a continuation
of what I had been experiencing with Proscar, although speed of regrowth
improved.
Hair growth and
thickening of hair. Increased strength
at about 2 months,
I noticed little hairs growing in areas that were previously balding. at
the 6th month, the bald areas had filled considerably. Now that I've been
off avodart for almost 6 months, the bald areas are quite visible again.
Shedding has seemed
to slow down or stop. Regrowth in crown area
Hair grew thicker
and fuller
Great response! No shedding.
Regrowth very satisfactory. Thank you
Hair has thickened a little bit,
more than anything I have maintained better than I did on years of Propecia

slowed hair loss
My hair seems to be stable with periods of shedding and
the re-thickening. I have been using this medication for about
18 months
hair loss has slowed down
Initial shedding, after a couple months hair loss stopped
and have had very slow regrowth and thickening
MINOR SHEDDING /
NO REGROWTH YET
I started taking
Avodart in February, did not notice any improvement, in fact my hair has
increased its loss at a faster pace. I have read that there is a shedding
phase, even though I did not see massive amounts of hair in my sink, pillow
or shower my hair seems much thinner. I am not seeing any fine hairs either
and the hairline has moved approximately .5 inch on my right temple since
starting Avodart. I am still positive that Avodart might be assisting in
some way and will start with a Rogaine regimen in hopes of aiding any new
growth coming up within the year.
no response to Avodart
yet
It has basically halted any hair loss and possible some
thickening
no shedding growth in front and
temple area

I have tried it for four

I have been on Avodart for several years with positive
results, meaning slowed hair loss. It took about 3 months to start working.
Hair stopped thinning,
with some possible regrowth
My hair loss has continued, but at a much slower rate.
I haven't really had any regrowth or shedding.
I have been able
to halt any further hair loss and grew some back. It took about a year
to really notice good effects. I am pleased with the results.
seems to work at reducing further

Very good stop of shedding ....
some regrowth in temples and crown
I'd say I had some regrowth .....

Stopped losing hair almost immediately
I began to notice thickening

5 months
After three months I noticed a general thickening of my
hair and my hairline began to thicken in places it was thinning. My friends
would often comment on the progress.
Changes within 3 months and no more hair symptoms to date
Cessation in hairline recession.
Shedding, however, continues.
Hair line seems to have stabilized.
Started seeing results during the first 3 months
Good response and no shedding
Very responsive to the medication. I have seen regrowth
and thickening over 2 years. I have not experienced shedding.
I have had a positive
experience with Avodart. Before taking Avodart my hair had started slowly
thinning, but since taking Avodart my hair has slowly started to thicken.
I cant actually pick out hairs and say "those are new" but my hair does
look fuller in general.
NOTICE SMALL HAIRS

I almost quit after my one yr. prescription ran out but

My hair has been gradually thinning

Had initial shedding. Gradual regrowth at hairline.
Changes within 3 months and no
more hair loss symptoms to date
I've used Avodart for 2 years
and have had absolutely no side effects and have had regrowth (at least
in the beginning). Since the initial regrowth my hairline has stabilized.
results are not clear yet. my
main symptoms are frontal thinning. I plan to use the next six months to
determine whether this therapy is effective for me.
No changes yet. Everything remaining the same.
:: Working well, maintained same amount of hair since
inception and probably 15% regrowth, abs. no side effects..Some minor shedding,
replaced by growth periods
Excellent results
far better than Propecia hair quality better good regrowth
no more loss
noticed changes in six months.
hair thicker. maintaining hair and regrowth
My hair loss began the fall semester of my junior year
in college. I began taking Rogaine the following January (1994). Rogaine
slowed my hair loss but did not stop it. In 1997, I added Propecia to my
regimen. The combination of Propecia and Rogaine further slowed, but did
not stop, my recession. I switched from Propecia to Avodart about two years
ago and have had good results. With Avodart, I experienced little, if any,
shedding. My hair loss stopped almost immediately. Although I have not
experienced noticeable regrowth, my existing hair looks healthier. Avodart
is the only drug that I have tried that stopped the hair loss.
i have had substantial thickening and regrowth in front
and crown areas.
Stabilized hair loss
responded fairly well
slow shedding
Shedding slowed within one month, some regrowth after

At the 2 month mark
it began to seem as though my hair started to feel a bit thicker when I
ran my fingers through it especially on the crown. The thickening became
quite noticeable at the 4-5 month mark, with a considerable difference.
After first 3 months of shedding, have experienced sustained
maintenance and general thickening. Still experience some periods of shedding,
but not severe.
HAIR SEEMS HEALTHIER
ON CROWN/DECREASE SHEDDING
Initially slowed hair loss. Then experienced some
shedding. Thereafter, hair loss has once again slowed. I was only
taking the medication once every other day. Results may be better
if taken once daily.
Some growth on sides. Hairs longer too
Have noticed no further hair loss
I LOVE the Avodart treatment. I just wish my wallet could
keep up. This will be my third prescription in three years through MWC
and each time I experience noticeable hair regrowth. Some slight initial
shedding for the first three weeks, but that is all. Now I can finally
afford to stay on Avodart long term. In the past I would purchase a 3-month
supply, use it regularly, notice incredible improvements; and go off Avodart
for 6-8 months until I could afford to get another supply. The product
works great when coupled with Super Hair Energizer Vitamins & Minerals.
-My hair started thinning at the crown when I was around 23 years old.
I obtained an Avodart prescription from MWC and had incredible results,
with no thinning areas on the crown after 6 months. It just seems to cycle.
By the time I use up my Avodart you wouldn't have thought I needed it at
all. Then it's a year before I can afford more, and in that time thinning
takes place. In 3 years I've been on Avodart two times for a total of 9
months and off of it for 27 months combined. I am just excited to be financially
stable enough to now go on Avodart for as long as I need
Some initial shedding, followed
by some regrowth in temple areas.
I never had any shedding and
i feel that my hairloss has stopped or slowed down significantly. it has
kept my hair at a steady nw3.
At about 4 months, I noticed
a slight thickening of the hair. Also, I don't seem to be losing as much
anymore.
after 4-6 months, less shedding,
thicker, been taking it for about 3 years now
No regrowth, but shedding has slowed
slow regrowth after a few months
After six months of taking Avodart, I noticed thickening
in the crown and a little in the temple regions, after a brief period of
shedding 2-3 months in. Hair loss seems to have stabilized over the last
year, with minimal sheds.
I noticed regrowth approximately four months after
Hard to tell if there was regrowth, no initial shedding,
stopped hair loss
Ongoing maintenance, not sure
of shedding. Hasn't gotten that much better, hasn't gotten much worse
I have been on Avodart for over 2 years now and the continued
progress is good. In the first year I saw a real stabilization and thickening
of my hair in the very front and crown. In the last year I have maintained
the current thickness with no noticeable loss. Started thinning at around
17 or 18 and continued until I started Propecia at 19... stabilized for
a while but started thinning again until I started Avodart.
there has been no change in my
medical history and when I used avodart it took about 6 months to notice
a difference but since then my hair is almost back to a full head of hair
... I almost can't even notice a difference...it's a miracle drug in my
book! Thinning in front in late teens .... continued through 20s and now
has pretty much regrown with the use of avodart ... the stuff is awesome
began showing signs of hair loss at age 18. began Propecia
at age 21 with good results. then switched to Avodart with even better
results -- hair loss almost completely halted. showed good signs of regrowth
combined with Rogaine.
I have had thickening of hair and some regrowth.
within a month, scalp filled in nicely
Hair shafts seemed
to feel thicker, but hairloss was unabated. It may have slowed down,
but it is impossible to know.
stopped hairloss, gained new growth on crown
GOOD - CESSATION OF TEMPLE RECESSION WITH SOME REGROWTH
It started working after a couple of weeks and is continuing
to do so. Hair loss started about 3 and half years ago. After noticing
it I started taking Propecia. It didn't work too well. I then tried Avodart
which is working a lot better. I now don't have any problems anymore
no regrowth no loss
maintaining hair count
Hair thickened at about 3 month...i stopped using the
avodart and am starting to shed a lot.
hair is a bit worse than when i first started. however
i attribute that to genetics, not the medication. i didn't notice any initial
shedding. no thickening of my hair. i'm hoping either to maintain what
i have, or to slow the process as much as possible.
I think my existing hair thickened.
No noticeable regrowth although my overall hair seems better
noticed slowing of thinning and
shedding
thickening and regrowth after about 3 months, been using
for about 2 years
reduces hair loss. no side effects.
Some shedding at 3.5 months. Regrowth at the 5 month
No shedding, basically holding on to what I have with
possible 10-15% regrowth
Was on it for 6 months, didn't
notice any regrowth but may have helped halt loss.
I didn't have any initial shedding and notice results
after 6 months of use. My vertex became slightly thicker and the rate of
hairloss decreased dramatically. My hairline was the least receptive to
dutasteride, but even hairs along my hairline seemed to fall out at a decreased
rate.
The past year I've
had moderate regrowth, but very little additional loss
Very good response on crown and vertex, continues to this
day.
I have been using Avodart for several years now and it
has made a quite noticeable difference in my hair regrowth.
6 months shedding slowed 12 months some regrowth
My hair is getting slightly thicker.
I have had a good response to Avodart, with growth evident
within the first two months. I have had regrowth across the scalp, some
is fine hair but in other places it is thicker. Had no initial shedding
whatsoever.
saw regrowth after first month Have been losing
since mid-20's but now regrowing with Avodart.
I have no further loss of hair. After approximately 5
months hair appeared to be beginning to regrow at the vertex.

Had been using Propecia. Upon switch to Avodart, noticed
increased growth and thickening within 2-3 weeks. Progress has continued
I have maintained
my hair over the last several years with Avodart and regrown quite a bit
of hair at crown, temples and frontal area.
scalp itch gone within 3 hours of first dose and never
returned; overall hairloss seems to have slowed, but recession at temples
slowly continues.
Very good response and regrowth starting within the first
year of use and continuing through to the present
Didn't really have any side-effect reaction to Avodart,
nor any significant shedding. Definite increase in hair thickness and look.
Definitely working
overall pretty good. only take 2 .5mg per week. some shedding
in the first few months.
No initial shedding, reduced shedding over time
Gradual receding hairline over the and eventually advancing
to somewhere between Class 3 and 4. Formerly used Propecia but have been
happy with the results of Avodart, prescribed by the Wellness Center

9 months
Basic maintenance of existing hair, and slight regrowth
at the front
Started thinning when i was 22, a few months later, it
was between a class 2 and class 3. After taking avodart and using rogaine,
it is now between a normal hair line and a class 2. Had great success,
look forward to continuing.

receding of hair line has slowed considerably
Hair getting stronger, Not losing any hair.
Stopped hair loss
Had been on propecia; switched to avodart; after 3-4 weeks,
noticed additional fullness and thickness; no side affects
Began thinning when
I was in graduate school (mid-late 20's). Used Minoxidil for a while. When
Propecia became available I switched to it. Propecia worked well for most
of a decade, however as I passed 40 I found that my hair loss, was increasing.
I switched to Avodart about 2 years ago and hair loss has once again stopped.
Have been taking Avodart for approximately two years. Modest regrowth after
first 6 to 9 months on Avodart. Additional hair loss has been close to,
if not, zero. I'm pleased with these results and wish to continue treatment.
started about three years ago. after about six months
of treatment, my vertex and anterior mid-scalp areas became more dense.
this thickening continued for about another six months. i don't think i
have gained anymore density in last 2 years, but it appears i'm retaining
what i gained in the first year of treatment
hair loss -> 1 or
2 hair per day down from 10-15 hairs
Regrowth - 30 %
No itchy scalp
Steady hair growth with Avodart.
thickening, stopped shedding
Slight regrowth, hairloss has been halted
great response! it only took about a month before I noticed
halting of hair loss, and 1-2 months before regrowth occurred. since then,
I have had phenomenal results... my hair has totally grown back. I had
gradual hair loss until age 26-27 when my hair began to fall out very quickly.
It was very thin when I first started taking Avodart. Since then it has
grown back fully.
No initial shedding occurred. My hairloss had just recently
started and so far it appears that Avodart has at the very least stopped
me from losing any more of my hair. Hair regrowth was noticed after 6 to
9 months of taking the drug. The hair growth was minimal, but enough to
be noticed. Most of the thickening occurred in the frontal region. The
crown of my head has almost no hairloss so the only thing I can confirm
in this area is that Avodart at least prevented my hairloss from spreading
further.
Some initial shedding, maintaining current hair thickness
No initial shedding. Thickening hair Started losing hair
at 20. Underwent several successful transplants. Started on Propecia as
soon as it was available. Switched to Avodart 2 years ago. Better results.
No side effects
whatsoever.
Lots of fine new hairs starting to grow after about 3-4
months.
Working Great
started about three
years ago. after about six months of treatment, my vertex and anterior
mid-scalp areas became more dense. this thickening continued for about
another six months. i don't think i have gained anymore density in last
2 years, but it appears i'm retaining what i gained in the first year of
treatment
Progress is good. No shedding,
noticed changes 2 months. Hair was a little thicker, not much regrowth,
but balding has stopped.
Modest hair
regrowth started after 2-3 months of usage. I did not see any substantial
initial shedding, although I did see some slight hair loss after a few
months. The regrowth area seems to be getting thicker. It really seems
to be working for me, the loss area is improving.
No big response.
Seems to have stopped hair loss. No regrowth yet.
No response thus far, but no further loss of hair
No thickening of hair, however, hairloss pretty much stopped.
general thickening of all areas where there was preexisting
hair
Great response, changes quick, no shedding, it's a miracle
drug as far as I'm concerned.
THICKENING OF HAIR IN CROWN IN ABOUT 3-4 MONTHS
I have noticed some thickening of the existing hair and
some slight regrowth thus far -- hairloss has ceased
Modest hair regrowth, with slow but continued progress
beyond the first year. Now stable.
Steady but slow now
Initial shed, slight regrowth, thickening of hair
Slight regrowth
Response to Avodart treatment described:: My response
to Avodart treatment has been excellent. I have had absolutely no side
effects. I have had no shedding while on Avodart. Avodart began working
for me about a month and a half into treatment, first reducing hair fall
out in the shower from about 30 hairs a day to about 10 hairs a day. My
hair also began to feel and look thicker. At about the 3 month mark hair
fall out in the shower was reduced to about 5 hairs a day. I also began
to see some regrowth in the crown area where I had previously been thinning.
Now right up to the 6 month mark I continue to see regrowth in the crown
area. Also scalp itching has completely gone away.
From month 7 onward my crown had
completely filled. My hair looks thick and full. Avodart really does work.
I am very pleased with my positive response from Avodart. I want to continue
treatment. Thank you
Darkening of light hairs after one month, overall thickening
since.
Had initial shedding, happy with the regrowth.
Initial shedding years ago. Slow filling in and maintenance
of new hair.
About 4 years ago I noticed my hairline receding. About
3 years ago I started taking avodart and my hairloss came to a halt and
my hairline has remained the same ever since.
Approx. 3 months. Hair has stopped falling out. Some signs
of re-growth
Noticed a slight difference within a month and a more
pronounced difference in about 2 months. Best to describe it as a slow
but sure process.
I have been on avodart for @ 3 years. For the 1st year
hair grew back, from @ N5B to a N3. I have appeared to stabilize now. I
would still like to continue. I have never had any negative side effects.
Started at 18 steady loss until I started with avodart. it arrested the
process, and grew some back (now age 38)
Has stopped hair loss, minimal regrowth
gradual all-over thinning that has lessened since i started
using avodart.
Stopped shedding hair. I'm actually keeping what I had
since I started taking this.
No initial shedding that I recall, it took about six months
to notice change. Front seems about the same, but the crown has definitely
increased in density and thickness.
hair grew back
fair- no shedding
becoming a little more dense
Hair has ceased thinning and receding
fall out stopped and have had some regrowth
Thickening of hair after 1 year of use.
Overall thickening, some small progress at hairline
After the first three months, I have noticed the crown
and anterior vertex have started to become more dense. The hair is of mixed
color and texture with some darker terminal hair and hair that has not
reached maturity but is still visible. The frontal hairs which compose
the hairline are improving, but I have not noticed the progression of my
hairline as other have, although I have only been on this product for three
months. I believe the these areas will fill in as well. Overall, I am quite
happy with the product.
No initial shedding and things have been maintaining at
the same level, which is all I really want to happen. Balding was rapid
prior to Avodart but has ceased.
hair loss has slowed
Avodart has facilitated regrowth and reduced the progression
of losing hair. The changes started taking place about 60 days after taking
the medication.
I noticed an increase in regrowth in about 4 months. No
shedding was noticed. I first noticed my hair loss just right after graduating
High School. I have used various products to slow the progress (Rogaine,
Propecia, Proscar). Avodart has shown the greatest results so far.
So far I have been able to maintain the status quo since
taking avodart. Given that it has been very difficult for me to detect
any further hair loss since taking avodart I am pleased with the results
to date.
Results have been excellent ot date - had some initial
shedding but overall has stopped progression of hair loss
better quality hair, stopped fallout after 3 months
Hair stopped falling out very quickly, and has since thickened
up nicely. I'm very satisfied. Started thinning on top when I was 27. I
then started rogaine and propecia that stopped it and helped for a while.
Then when I was almost 30 the propecia lost its affect and I started thinning
again. Then in the beginning of 2003 I started using avodart with very
good results. My hair has thickened up, and I am happy with the results.
Currently, steady state - no new hair growth, but no new
hair loss either. Use in combination with 5% minoxidil.
has maintained growth
I noticed hair loss in my mid to late 20's and saw a doctor
that prescribed Propecia for me. After about 6 months on Propecia my hair
thickness returned to almost normal and stayed that way for many years.
About 1 year ago it seems Propecia stopped working for me and I noticed
a large increase in hair loss. I consulted with you about 6 months ago
and started Avodart; within about 2 weeks my hair loss slowed and actually
began to grow back after about 2 to 3 months. My hair is now thicker and
almost back to the fullness it was before I started the treatment. I noticed
a decrease in the number of hairs shed when combing my hair after a shower
within about 2 weeks. After 2 to 3 months my hair was somewhat thicker
and I no longer had the "balding" appearance. Now my hair is almost back
to the thickness it was before starting the treatment.
I have been using avodart for 2 1/2 years. No noticeable
hairloss since I've been using it after and initial shedding period. No
noticeable side effects.
Have experienced regrowth of hair
so far not a whole lot of change. but i have not been
on it that long. seems like the shedding is slowing down
minor shedding, minor regrowth on hairline
I've been on avodart for about a year. I don't think I
have seen new growth, but I don't believe I've lost much if any hair either.
hair loss has stopped since first staring treatment
My hair loss stopped after 2 weeks of treatment
Hair has always been fine. At age 30 slow gradual hair
losses began to occur at vertex. Since taken Avodart hair on sides seems
thicker and vertex loss stopped or slowed. Been taking Avodart for almost
1 ½ years. After the first 8 months, I noticed an overall slight
improvement. Hair on side of head seems thicker and looked as if it crept
up more toward the middle. It seems lately my hair in the frontal area
is receding. I haven t noticed much of any type of improvement lately in
the vertex area.
approx 3- 4 months thickening of hair
shedding initially, now loss has decreased
thin regrowth
Reduction in hair loss
My father is completely bald, brother with thin hair.
I have been using rogaine, propecia, and now avodart since I was 23-24
with very good success Been on it for several years and has done an excellent
job maintaining my hair and decent new growth too
Thickening of hair after 6 months
I've noticed just after a couple of months that my hair
wasn't shedding out like it used to, it feels better and is looking better.
no real change yet
Gradual Hair loss which has slowed very much with use
of Avodart.
I started noticing less thinning and partial regrowth
after ~4 months. After ~2 years, I have seen significant regrowth.
I noticed less shedding from the scalp after 3 months
of use. Regrowth has been slow if any, but the important part is the scalp
is holding on to what it has
after continued use, my hair appears to be thicker
Great maintenance. Initial shed, no more shedding
The hairloss has slowed since I started taking Avodart
a couple years ago
I noticed shedding right away, then it tapers off after
a few months, have not noticed any regrowth
I noticed changes within the first 4 months. No shedding
or side effects. After 4 months my hair was noticeably thicker and stable.
Have maintained most due to minoxidil and Propecia and
now avodart. I am continuing the treatment I have for years to keep what
I have. Whenever I stopped any of the above treatments mentioned I noticed
thinning, so I definitely want to continue with my treatments. I started
taking Avodart I think about 2.5 years ago. It worked really well at first
but now I use it just to hopefully maintain what I have gained back.
I've been on Avodart for close to two years now and have
had great success! About every three months I shed quite a bit and then
my hair comes back thicker and and softer. This process has been going
on since I started the product. Also after the shedding occurs and my hair
begins to return my scalp feels excellent!
: DURING THE FIRST AND ONLY TIME I USED IT, I SAW PEACH-FUZ
IN 3 MONTHS. AT AROUND 6 MONTHS I ACTUALLY NOTICED THAT THE RECEDING HAD
STOPPED I NOTICED THICKENING OF HAIR AND REGROWTH!!!
seems to have slowed hair loss
at first shedding was very evident for about three weeks.
eyes were a little dry. then all shedding stopped and i soon noticed regrowth
at the top of the head and since then has been starting to fill in. I'm
very excited about the results!!
overall thickening
Progress after month 3 and continued progress thereafter.
I did not notice any changes or shedding. I am assuming
that the medication is working because I have not noticed any hair loss.
Noticed at about 16-17. Has been going on gradually for the past 12 years.
I think the avodart has been successful in maintaining existing hair.
:: Initial shedding after first month that lasted 3 to
4 month. Shedding has now stopped.
Shedding on and off. no regrowth noticed yet
significant regrowth on top of head and overall thickening
of the existing hair
after 2-3 months i noticed some slight regrowth of hair.
overall i feel avodart has helped maintain the amount and fullness of my
hair and prevented further loss.
Hair loss has decelerated. NO regrowth of lost hair.
Cessation of hair loss On Propecia or Avodart for last
7 years without significant further receding. Current Norwood 3. Have had
several hair transplants to restore hairline.
There was a thickening of hair after a few months. No
shedding.
thickening on crown and stopped hair loss
Hair loss seems ot have slowed down and stabilized
I started noticing positive change after 2 months of use
No shedding, much regrowth
Regrowth at the crown; slowing of hair loss overall
Great results within one month ... ceased shedding, hair
grew thicker and regrowth in all areas. Thanks!
Been taking Avodart for approximately 2 years now. (Was
Previously taking propecia/proscar.) Haven't experienced any shedding.
Regrowth has been steady, if slow. Still though, hairline has continued
to return.
My response to use of Avodart has been very good. Initially
I experienced some slight shedding in the first couple of months but since
then I have not had any shedding and have seen my hair thicken. Although
hair has not returned to my temple area it has stopped the recession. I
have not had any sexual or any other side effects.
crown filled in well. Overall thickening of hair. Frontal
area needs improvement
Response has been generally very good. No clumps of hair
falling out or big noticeable changes. Changes noticed were the stoppage
of hair loss after about 6 months. It appears as if there is slight regrowing
of hair.
Short thin hair/ at about 5 months
less shedding and some thickening
Steady, slowed shedding
I have maintained amount of hair for the last 3 years.
initial shed 2 mo then strong regrowth and now maintaining
new hair - it works
good- responses, including thickening of hair started
within a few months
Over time I have noticed continually thicker hair
Initially regrew some hair now maintaining current thickness.
Most success with crown area.
It has slowed hair loss significantly at the crown. It
hasn't done a whole lot at the temples.
Response seems to be good. Less shedding with gradual
thickening.
thickening hair
Shedding and thickening over time
I have not had any continued loss and, it seems, to have
thickened a bit.
Significant reduction in rate of hair loss on crown. Little
hair loss in this area in 2 years of use. Was already using Propecia so
it is difficult to determine when benefits commenced
Hair loss seems to have greatly stabilized since first
starting treatment. It took a few months after an initial shed. No shedding
has occurred since then
I have taken Avodart for approximately four years now,
and it has proven effective for me in dramatically slowing hair loss.
Hair has grown back extensively
not much shedding, great thickness, especially in front
Hair loss has declined, possibly even stopped. Strands
in some areas may be thicker.
Hair thinning progressed very gradual with must of the
hair shedding coming from the top of the scalp. tried propecia for 18 months
with no improvement. HAVE NOTICED Less Hair Shedding in the last five months
and a thickening of the hair on the crown and scalp area. Have been taking
Avodart for 18 months with no health side effects.

Initial shedding, not alot of regrowth but hair loss has
stopped
no shedding, some regrowth starting at 5 months
Regrowth in 4 - 6 months
My hair loss history is a gradual one starting about ten
years ago, and is some where between a Norwood class 3 and 4 but has been
really improving with the use of Avodart.
I have not noticed any changes yet.
Reduced hair loss, thickening of hair, some regrowth
Noticed initial frontal regrowth at 4-5 months. At about
10 months I stopped growing new hair. Very satisfied overall.
Some initial shedding (very little), Mild regrowth, nothing
compared to when I first started with Propecia years ago, but still, a
little bit.
I stopped Avodart and used Propecia with bad results,
worse hair loss
good, slowed balding
hair remains intact
Initial heavy shedding; Regrowth after about 6 months
thickening of hair
gradual regrowth and thickening after 4 months
Hair thicker a bit more thickness
Great. Just hair growing in thicker, not going bald. I
started noticing it at 19 years old. It came on pretty quickly, but after
taking Propecia years ago, it slowed down. After stopping Propecia and
taking Avodart, it has stabilized and perhaps even grown thicker.
: I started to use it in March-06. I see immediate
results starting from my 3rd week. My existing hair thickened and I had
a significant amount of regrowth. My regrowth was very noticeable during
weeks 3-8 but after that it slowed down. Currently my density is till increasing
but at a slower pace. I didn't notice any shedding but my hair is extremely
short (#1 cut)
Hair is thicker
Dear Medical Wellness Center,
I'm getting great results from
Avodart again, with no side effects! I look forward to renewing my prescription
for 1 year in June 2007.
Thanks again!
It stopped balding process
Good Response. Continue Regrowth and thickening of hair.
No longer and hairloss.
Lots of small thin hairs, but limited thickening
regrowth
The results have mostly been to stop further hair loss.
Some minor regrowth has occurred but my main concern was to stop any further
loss.
Had some initial shedding with some thickening and hair
regrowth
general thickening of all hair that was still present
no strong initial shedding..just trying to maintain hair
on my crown
I noticed when I was 28 that my hair thinned slightly
at the crown. When I got into my early 30s I noticed it progressed a little
more and enough that I wanted to try propecia to catch it early. Propecia
was incredible but it seemed to taper off over the past few years. I noticed
a definite thickening after about 3 months. Some shedding did occur which
I expected. I've noticed some regrowth at the temporal areas as well as
at the crown. The overall texture of my hair has improved dramatically.
I noticed thicker stable hair after one year.
hair is thickening
I have been on avodart for at least 3 years. i have experienced
ups and downs. overall I've had stable slow hair loss and for the most
part maintained a good amount of hair. i feel however that in the past
6 months i have experience a higher amount of loss and more rapid thinning.
i am not sure if this means that i have become resistant to the treatment
or perhaps its just another phase in the shedding/regrowth cycle.
Maintained hair thickness, some regrowth
hair loss has slowed down after taking avodart
I have used avodart for about 3 months. No shedding whatsoever.
Hair loss reduced after 1 month. I had not seen too much change after that.
Hair seemed to have thickened a little.
no initial shedding, maintaining so far.
At this point it is maintaining all the hair it regrew
in prior years.
Good progress; maintained my hair since I began in 03
: thickening of hair within the first year, continued
no loss for the second year and on
Had some thickening after about three months. Thinning
stopped completely.
I've maintained my hair with Avodart.
3 months regrowth
Hair has not gotten worse
Avodart has worked very well and better than Propecia
A few years ago before I had started taking Avodart, I
had started to notice my hair seeming thinner and my scalp becoming more
visible. I started becoming very self conscious. But now after taking Avodart
for a few years I honestly rarely even think about my hairline or losing
my hair, and am very pleased with the appearance of my hair. I don't know
if anyone responds to these, but I did notice a little bit of shedding
a little over a year ago. It seemed to last for about a few weeks or so
and then I gradually didn't notice it anymore and haven't noticed it since.
But I would be curious to know if that is normal and if that is something
I should expect to happen again?
I'm not growing new hair, but I have stopped losing hair.
This began immediately after beginning Avodart.
About three months in, I noticed less loss.
slowed hairloss
6 months, slight regrowth, but stopped the loss
Hair growth has been good
hairloss has remained stable
Maintaining so far....
Start to notice thickening after 3 mo. no regrowth
Haven't noticed any change
So far haven't noticed much change but want to continue.
I have shown some regrowth. mostly has just stopped the
hair loss.
Hair loss has been gradual and confined pretty much to
top central region. Loss accelerated in late 40s. I think Avodart has slowed
the loss significantly, but some loss is still evident. Some regrowth in
frontal region but more towards back. I think some more loss has occurred
by it is slower than before I started Avodart.
I started first losing hair when I was 19 and gradually
lost more hair over time until I started taking Avodart at which point
my hair loss stopped I started noticing significant changes about a year
after starting Avodart. Avodart has completely halted any further hair
loss since I started taking it. I have also regrown some hair back. It
works great for me.
Noticed changes after 3 weeks, hair grew thicker and hair
regrew along the hairline.
HAIR REGROWTH AND THICKENING. NO SHEDDING
hair loss has been much slower, and hairs on top of head
are thicker
No real initial shedding, slow thickening, but noticeable.
thickening and some regrowth
I've had thickening in the front, but overall it has ceased.
Everything is pretty much being maintained. I'm starting to wonder if the
back is thinning though.
Effects noticed after approx 1.5 to 2 weeks of first dose.
No initial shedding, but pronounced decrease in hair loss. Regrowth of
new, small hairs after approx 1-2months.
I started to notice thick regrowth within 5 months, and
have maintained all that I have grown. No sides. Im very satisfied with
the product.
It appears that the medication has dramatically slowed
down the hair loss. I still experience some hair loss, but I believe that
is still normal for everybody. As for regrowth, there are some smaller
hairs new the front hairline. I don't expect major regrowth from the medication,
but I do expect, and have noticed, a reduction in hairloss. Therefore,
I am pleased with the results thus far.
After about 3 months my hair stopped receding and thinning
and has grown back in previously bald areas and filled in in thinner areas.
And has seen steady but slow progress since. Very happy with it.
I noticed changes within a few months. I no longer have
shedding
Took propecia for a couple years which retarded recession.
Switched to avodart and have had good results . Hairline has not receded.
I have not noticed significant regrowth, but I've also
noticed very little progression over the 2.5 years that I have been using
Avodart.
Dramatic regrowth of hair
initial shedding for about 3 weeks than regrowth
A few shedding phases, but over all has maintained my
hair (no new growth apparent yet).
works great

I noticed a reduction in hair loss in about a
week. I had no initial shedding, and I have experienced a thickening of
hair and some regrowth as of Month 5.
Started in college, has been slow but steady ever since.
Using Avodart has helped slow hair loss significantly. hair has stopped
falling out, but I have not noticed any significant regrowth
Slowed down hair loss and complete retention of crown
and top
noticed hair loss at a class 2 stage and have been able
to hold it like this by first taking propecia and now Avodart -

temple areas. New hair growth with less shedding on top of head. All balding

with areas of baldness filling in with new hair growth. hair is becoming
thicker
maintaining hair
Shedding seems to have stopped for the past 3 years, hair
seems thicker, maybe some regrowth in the crown area. Shedding noticeable
at about 25yo, receding hairline and crown. Rogaine/minox slowed down the
process. Followed by Propecia and then Avodart some years ago. Hair status
seems stable since use of Avodart.
no shedding, thickening of hair
I am at the 6 month mark. I have noticed a gradual thickening
or healthier look to the hair that I already have. I have not notice much
growth on the side-frontal area other than an increase in very short fuzz
of several mm in length. In the area of the top front, I have noticed and
increase in some very fine short hairs of approximately 1/4 to 1/3 inches
in length. However, they do not seem to get any longer than this. At no
time during my 6 months of use did I notice any shedding.
Continued maintenance this year, no significant growth,
but more importantly - no noticeable degradation in either hairline or
vertex.
Seems to slow the shedding down.
Hair has thickened in general, new growth in front.
minimal regrowth and thickening
I'm not sure I've seen improvement, really. In fact, my
hair continues to thin at the temples. Other places seem to be stable though.
Thickening of hair in 6 mo
No shedding. Increased growth and thickness
I didn't notice any shedding, and new hairs have sprouted
up along my hair line.
Hair loss has stopped.
Using Avodart topically with aloe vera gel. No real shedding
of note. Subjective thickening of hair noted.
After 6 months, it was apparent that I was no loner losing
my hair. After one year, slight regrowth in the crown area was noticeable.
Changes were very subtle, but it works better than finasteride.
I have been taking for about 30 months results are moderate
but noticeable
Hair is thicker at shaft and has filled in somewhat. The
product is working, I noticed its effects after about 2 months.
Condition of hair is excellent and much thicker.
Big shedding at the beginning...slowing down now...
There was some initial shedding but regrowth has generally
been significant. Except for some persistent bald areas in the temple are
I am very pleased with the regrowth.
Good response. Thicker hair on top and in frontal area.
took between 6 mos to a year for results.
I've had an excellent response to avodart. I'm been using
the medication for 2 years and have not seen anymore hairloss during this
time. Initially I had shedding, but over time my hair has thickened and
maintained.
Seem to be no shedding or continued loss. POssible that
there is regrowth, especially around frontal vertex, but too early to make
definitive conclusions. Looks optimistic
maintaining current hair. some slow recession at hairline
persists, but hairloss is less than that experienced by male relatives.
Hair growth has thickened above the temple, and loss has
stopped. very little shedding
a lot less shedding
hair loss rate has slowed
Noticed changes w/ in 6 wks. hair stopped falling out
bur remained thin on crown after over 1 year of use. Results
were better with use of minoxidil in conjunction wi Avodart.
Some initial shedding; no regrowth at this point
Have been taking for about 18 months. Hair regrowth has
been impressive. No hair loss has been noted.
I have had very good results using Avodart over the past
3 years. Recession has stopped in the front hairline, and the crown has
filled in.
I've been using Avodart for over five years with no side
effects and no further loss of hair since beginning treatment. Before that
I used Propecia. Initially I actually got a little regrowth (even on front
hair line), but not having any further hair loss is enough for me.
Great response, no noticeable loss
: 6 months to see much changes, since changes have been
dramatic.
After a few months use, hair thickened.
I have had improvement in my hair
Initial shedding - no noticeable regrowth so far
seems to be working with no noticeable side effects

been strong, especially on the sides.
: Loss rate slowed greatly and noticed some regrowth
Avodart appears to be slowing my hair loss
I had gradual hairloss at 20 then started taking propecia.
Propecia stopped when I turned 23 so then I started Avodart. Seems to have
stopped hair loss. Have not noticed increase in hair growth. Initial shedding
lasted only in the first 2 months.
Great success. results right away. no shedding
I've been taking Avodart for male pattern baldness for
several years now. Continued treatment with Avodart has halted the progression
of the condition.
It took me about a year and a half to notice a difference.
After this time passed I have noticed a significant decrease in shedding.
Avodart has been more effective than Propecia for me.
response was well; did experience initial shedding, new
growth appearance after approximately 4 months. Hope to see more in the
coming 12 months.
There seemed to be an initial shedding period after switching
from propecia to avodart. Since then, the results seem about the same,
it is hard to tell (no noticeable difference from propecia).
Overall maintaining of hair line and crown for past 3
or 4 years. No shedding of any kind. Hair seems to have maintained thickness.
The initial response was slow, however, I am now in a
maintenance mode trying to keep the growth of 1yr.

back of head in 1 year
I have been using Avodart, Minoxidil and Nizoral for about
1.5 yrs now. It is working well. It has stopped my hair loss and is maintaining
my hair level. I am starting to see new small fine hairs that are lighter
in color. I hope that the new hairs will start darkening and thickening
soon.
maintaining hair count
I have been on Avodart for just over 3 years. I have seen
a dramatic increase in hair density and only have observed normal shedding
as a result of the medication. I am very pleased with the product and will
continue using the medication as a form of treatment to combat hair loss.
After a period of significant shedding I am thrilled to
report that Avodart has resulting in a full return of normal density on
my crown. I had been using Proscar for about 10 years with good results
but the effects were starting to diminish as I was beginning to shed in
the crown. I started Proscar early on and really enjoyed cosmetically
; hair all along, but I was always concerned about the thin appearance
when wet and it was quite troubling. I also always used 5% minox with Retin
A form my dermatologist. I am Thrilled with Avodart.
Been wonderful for maintaining anterior and vertex hair.
Stopped shedding, experienced some regrowth
It's been great. Has stopped any hair loss I was experiencing.
I can't tell if I've continued to see much regrowth, but
at least hair is stable.
thickening in 3- 5 months
Very good hair regrowth around the crown of the scalp
No adverse reaction. No noticeable regrowth, but no loss
Hairloss slowed down rather quickly after starting treatment
with good thickening and growth overall. Seems like after the 5th month,
shedding increased but I know this is a " normal" reaction to taking the
medication.
Appears to have stopped/slowed hair loss; took months
to notice.
I had significant shedding for about 3 months followed
by complete regrowth of lost hair. I use in conjunction with Retin A Minoxidil.
Started noticing hair loss at age 21. Went on 1/4 tab of Proscar at age
24 with minoxidil, had very good results. Started seeing those results
fade after 11 years or so. Went on Avodart and have had excellent results.
I am not really on the Norwood chart, I am typically complimented on my
thick hair.

Moderate shedding about a month in, then regrowth by 3
months or so to state of hair before commencement of Avodart, followed
by slight regrowth a few months later and a constant state since then (over
the next year-and-a-half)
I believe the overall appearance of my hair is better
after two months i noticed my hair thickened a lot. but
it tapered off after that.
It seems that I have been shedding for the entire time

After two months- slight regrowth; After four months-
continued regrowth at the crown area; At six month- continued filling in
at the crown
I have been thinning since the age of 18 and immediately
began a propecia and rogaine routine. My body seemed to develop a tolerance
to propecia after several years of use so I began using Avodart. Initially,
Avodart regrew some hair but since has mostly helped decrease the rate
of fallout.
Hair fallout has stopped. This occurred within weeks after
starting treatment. Hair regrowth is occurring however the progress is
very slow. It appears to grow back at the same pace I lost it.
I have been using it for two years with very good results.
My hair started thickening after a couple months and has gone to a point
that I am very happy with. I would like to keep this hair.
No additional hair loss but no hair gain.

very (maybe no) additional loss.
good response, noticed improvement after 9-10 months,
initial shedding during 3-7 months, followed by slight regrowth.
I have been very pleased with the results thus far. I
noticed results after 3 months or so and it has definitely helped regrow
hair where I was balding and slow down my hair loss.
No side effects. No hair growth that I can tell but no
hair loss either. People say my hair looks thicker but I honestly can't
tell for sure.

possibly some regrowth
My response to Avodart treatment has been excellent. I
have had absolutely no side effects. I have had no shedding while on Avodart.
Avodart began working for me about
a month and a half into treatment, first reducing hair fall out in the
shower from about 30 hairs a day to about 10 hairs a day. My hair also
began to feel and look thicker.
At about the 3 month mark hair
fall out in the shower was reduced to about 5 hairs a day. I also began
to see some regrowth in the crown area where I had previously been thinning.
Now right up to the 6 month mark
I continue to see regrowth in the crown area. Also scalp itching has completely
gone away.
From month 7 onward my crown had
completely filled. My hair looks thick and full. Avodart really does work.
I am very pleased with my positive response from Avodart.
Afterwards, I found my results
declined a little bit when I reduced my dosage to 1 every 5 days. My results
are best when I take Avodart daily. I
Initial shedding was extremely heavy first couple months.
Shedding subsided and hair loss stopped within 3 months. Hair began to
thicken around five months, and no hair is shed.
Hairloss has slowed and overall hair seems relatively
healthy. Haven't experienced any shedding, not much regrowth, but have
maintained the status quo.

Have been using for two years, lessening of hair loss
Very good overall maintenance of hair growth. Very little
hair loss, if any for over three years now. Amazing regrowth around hairline!
I couldn't do without Avodart if I wanted to maintain my hair growth. I
first noticed results after around 3-4 months of Avodart usage, which was
nearly four years ago and have since been nearly hair loss-free.
I have seen significant regrowth at the crown, some regrowth
at the temples. Overall hair is noticeably thicker. Many people have given
me unsolicited positive comments.
maintains hair pretty well
Hair seems stable
:: I didn't have any initial shedding, by the end of the
first month I had noticed a decrease in the number of hairs on my pillow
in the morning and less in the shower drain. I can't really say I have
had much regrowth but hair loss has definitely decreased and basically
stopped. I am very pleased. I would wake up in the AM with a lot of hair
on my pillow and after taking a shower the drain would be full of hair.
I went to my primary care physician and he started me on Propecia. A few
yrs later the FDA approved Avodart and I feel like it is a better medication
and prefer to be on Avodart instead of Propecia.
Good progress, growth after 3 months
I have been on Avodart for several years now, and I have
no complaints. The hair regrowth has been slow, and it only seems to maintain
my front hair, but that's better than losing it.
Good progress throughout hairline.
I've been maintaining.

avodart. basically the hairloss has stopped
I started to notice my hair growing back at 6 months,

: hair loss stopped and hair got thicker
I have taken Avodart for 2+ years. The drug has rested
further hair loss and has regrown some hair in the crown. I began noticing
changes almost immediately upon taking Avodart. My hair loss slowed considerably
within a week or two, and after about a month it stopped entirely. After
approximately three months I began to notice regrowth in the crown. The
crown area has not completely filled in, and probably never will, but I
am very happy with the results I see.

shedding in the beginning. I believe my hair is starting to look thicker.

at the crown of my head. No shedding noticed.
Avodart has greatly slowed down my hairloss. I have been
a patient of Medical Wellness for years now and am completely satisfied
with the results.
Initial shedding, hairline is denser
The response was surprisingly quick. At first it was the
general thickening of the existing hair then new "filler hair" in between
the existing. Now the "filler hair" is thicken to. I am most pleased with
the results. I noticed change after the first month and now its been 180
days and the still showing improvement. It is tapering off as far as new
hair growth but what was there is thick and strong.
I have been using the treatment for about two years now

Hair loss has stopped however no new hair growth
After thinning from the age of about 21 to 26, I began
taking propecia. the shedding completely stopped for about five years,
and I regrew a lot of hair. Propecia seemed to lose its effectiveness so
I switched to avodart with excellent results.: I have had considerable
thickening and regrowth of hair throughout the scalp. It too k about three
months to see changes. I have seen intermittent periods of short-term shedding,
followed by an increase in regrowth and thickening.

Some thickening of hair in all areas that were
thinning. Cessation of thinning. Changes noted after 6-9 months of use.
Thickening of hair. Less hair loss

hair loss has resumed. When I was taking Avodart I did not notice regrowth
but my hair loss did stop.
noticed itching in crown after approx 3-4 weeks then new
growth within 2 months. also noticed increased growth in frontal area.

effectiveness. Avodart started to work for me after about 6 months. I noticed
a general thickening and the fallout seemed to subside. The biggest change
I noticed was regrowth at the temporal areas. I experienced shedding and
actually still notice some shedding periodically, but it is usually followed
up by good re-growth. I've had no side effects at all and am very happy
with the product.

hair as well
Slowed recession and loss after 6 - 9 months.
It is working great immediately.

line and crown area has maintained hair density with no further progression
of hair loss.
hair loss has visibly decreased after 2 mos.

of time.
I have been on Avodart for about 3 years... It's worked
great for me!
Fair Growth..loss slowed
Thickening and some regrowth
When I was 18 I stared noticing my hairline thinning.
I tried a few different thins over the next few years that worked semi
well. But I really noticed a change after starting to take Avodart. I would
say that my hairline definitely looks thicker and healthier than it did
before starting to take Avodart. Maybe about once a year I notice a little
bit of shedding, but within a couple months everything seems to be back
to normal.

what I have.
Avodart seems to have minimized my hair loss, in the middle
and back of my scalp. The front has thinned out a bit, but the rest feels
good.
I have sustained my current amount of hair for almost
two years. There was initial growth in the front, but it has pretty much
remained the same.
I've been taking Avodart for over 3 years now. Avodart
has effectively stopped progression of hair loss. Limited regrowth has
been observed compared to treatment with Propecia (which I had been taking
for 5 or 6 years before Avodart)
No further hair loss.
Hair thickened on crown after 3 months, retained hair
but didn't notice as much regrowth. Want to try it out for a solid year
before making another judgment.
Maintaining hair line
Rate of hair loss has reduced significantly
I had previously been using a generic dutasteride for
3 months and noticed a slowing of the hair loss. Now after using the name
brand Avodart for an additional 7 months, I have seen an unbelievable improvement
in my thinning hair coming back. It is thicker and even filling back in
partially at the receding hairline. I am very excited about the results.
My response to avodart has been very well. The hair loss
reduced during the first month. After 6 months I noticed appreciable reduction
in hair loss. I still loose a small amount of hair but I think my hair
regrowth is balancing my hair loss. I started losing hair at about 23.
It was gradual. Initially I did not take any medication, so the hair fall
continued at a gradual rate. My hair started thinning in the front and
on the vertex. About 2 years later I started taking propecia. The hair
fall reduced a little but not enough. After using propecia for about a
year I started taking Avodart. Avodart started working immediately. The
hair fall reduced significantly and I can notice some hair growth as well.
Loss seems to have slowed, no regrowth
Continued maintenance, thickening came in the first two
years but it has maintained very nicely in the last couple years. I am
very happy as I am sure I would have continued to thin otherwise
No changes yet, other than less hair on the shower floor.
regrowth w/in a few months
my hair thicken and it fills in
steady improvements
It took at least 6 months to be noticeable. I was on propecia
before, and avodart is more effective
thickening of hair, maintained my hair
I believe I have experienced positive results with this
medication. There are times when it may appear that I am losing my hair
than normal (shedding), however, overall the results have been positive.
My hairloss has stabilized since the onset of taking this medication.
Avodart has stopped the progression of hair loss. Hair

It seems to work in stopping hair loss and showing some
regrowth.
hair has thickened and loss has stopped

thickening of hair-shaft and increased hair density. Complete
arrest of all hair loss (except normal shedding).
I have been on Avodart for approximately 3 to 4 years
now, after taking Proscar for a number of years before that. I have had

has continued the (slow) regrowth
I have noticed a significant slowing of hair loss, less
frequent and shorter shedding periods. I have not noticed and major thickening
Health of hair improved from day one and hairloss has

The thinning has slowed.

Avodart has prevented any further hair loss and there

to be noticeable.
After 3 months started noticing slight thickening in front
hairline. After 6 months results very noticeable in front hairline, slight
thickening in crown.
I have been using avodart for a while now and I am really

definite regrowth and thickening.
i have taken avodart on and off since it came out. the
shedding stage is very gradual. and notice increased density of hair around
2 months into treatment.
Hairloss has pretty much stabilized since I started taking
it several years ago.
Response has been fairly consistent with most of the anecdotal
literature. After initial shedding period, at 16 weeks usage I noted some
thickening, regrowth, but most significantly reduction in loss.
Response I believe it has caused some regrowth
Hair has remained nearly constant with only minimal further
loss.
Didn't notice any extra shedding but didn't notice more

loss completely stopped. Used it for 5 years now
Hair thickened and has remained thicker

It took about a year for Avodart to take full effect.
I took it for a while then stopped for a year. I started it again and have
been on it for about two years straight. I have no more shedding and am
thrilled with the results. I am 26 and started taking this at the first
signs of receding hairline. It seems to have stopped my hair loss all together.
It seems to have stop my hair loss
I have noticed increased thickness and new hairs growing
in around my hairline and temples. I started to notice this at about month
three.
Some initial shedding, but hair loss seems to have slowed.
Been on it since available, except for some initial shedding,
it has done very well for vertex and crown, and stimulated growth on sides
as well.
Within a month the rate of hair loss decreased; within
3 - 6 months I started getting new hair. At some point thereafter, the
growth stopped and my hair loss has been arrested.

Hair loss stopped. Hair became a bit thicker.
Some thickening/regrowth
I've had an excellent response to the medication.
Not only did my hairloss stop but hair actually regrew in all areas. I
haven't noticed any loss since starting Avodart. My hairloss began at age
20 and the hair began falling out at noticeable rates but subsides when
I began the use of propecia. After two years I witnessed the decreasing
effects of propecia and the hairloss began again. When starting Avodart
the hairloss stopped and I actually regrew hair. I've maintained it for
several years since.
Avodart has worked well for me. It has halted
my hairloss and has given me some regrowth in the crown area and has kept
the frontal hairline intact.
There has been a thickening of hair after several months
of treatment. Notice new light growth in balding areas. Very little noticeable
hair loss.
I have used Avodart for several years. During the first
year, the rate of fallout decreased noticeably and there were signs of
growth and thickening. After the first year, the rate of fallout has remained
low and I am satisfied with my results thus far.
Thickening from the start
Hair stopped shedding almost immediately.
Hair continues to show improved regrowth at a very slow but steady rate.
Have used avodart for over 5 years. Had some

Decrease in rate of hair loss
Not losing anymore, gaining slowly
I have been taking avodart for some time now
and its working great
Helping maintain my hair, but not regrowing
started seeing some results 4 months into
treatment
I have been taking it for about 3 years now.
No side effects. I have not regrown any hair but I have not least anymore
at all. This product has been amazing for me.
There was some initial shedding, after which
hairloss has been largely suspended. There is still some frontal/temple
thinning, or lack of regrowth which I'm treating with rogaine and topical
nizoral shampoo.
When I do not use Avodart I loose hair quickly.
It becomes thinner in the front and crown.
I have maintained hair line

Slight regrowth and maintaining hair count.
Initial shedding for 6 months. This is the 4th year.

I started using Avodart in July 2006. During
the last year, my existing hair has thickened in the front and the crown.
I have had slight regrow in the crown. My hair loss has stabilized and
appears to have stopped.
going into 3rd year, wonderful results, hair
remaining thick Gradually started early 20's, worsened early 30's, Propecia
& Avodart have slowly stopped and reversed - wonderful results from
both.
Lots of initial shedding to the point where
I stopped treatment for a while. I'm trying to stick with it this time.

stopped losing hair but no regrowth to speak
of

Not sure if I have had any changes or thickening
yet.
hair loss stopped. some regrowth
Very good
seems to be slowing hair loss
Hairloss stopped soon after treatment began.
No regrowth of hair. I have been using Avodart for over a year.
Not sure when, but by 1 year, shedding stopped,
thin hairs were thicker, and new hairs appeared at the hairline. No other
noticeable effects.
I noticed regrowth after 6 months
I noticed results immediately. Within 2 months,

seems to have lessened hairloss
Within the first month I noticed decreased
hair loss. Now just a few hairs on my pillow in the AM!!!
Difficult to tell now. Possibly slowing hair
loss. Completing first 6 months of use.
Started noticing changes after 3 months or
so
Started noticing changes after 3 months or
so
general stoppage of thinning, maybe some regrowth
At first the shedding was greatly reduced.
Overall it has helped immensely with slowing down the progression of hair
loss
working very well, no side effects
When I started avodart it took about 6 months or so before
I saw some regrowth/thickening. Never noticed any shedding. Thinning at
hairline beginning about 20, started on minoxidil in early 20's but hairline
recession and gradual thinning on crown continued slowly. I started on
Propecia when it first became avail. and this combination slowed rate of
loss and created some regrowth. Over time the minox/popecia combo seemed
to be losing effectiveness so I started on Avodart with medicalwellness
when it became available and it stabilized hairloss and returned some thickness.
This has maintained to this day.
No major initial shedding, Hair fallout reduction
within initial 2 weeks.
Hair loss seems to have stopped. Hair thicker
Maintaining, no growth noticed.
I have now been on Avodart about 7 months.
I did not notice any shedding but did not count my hair loss either. My
hair has continued to thin over this time period but my understanding is
that this would not be unusual as the hair can continue to thin as a natural
progression of the condition until Avodart has had a chance to take effect
during the first 6 months and/or Avodart promotes new hairs to push out
the old. There have been periods after the first 3 months where I felt
that my hair loss had slowed or stopped and that my hair looked healthier
but it is difficult to tell whether that is real or imagined. But my scalp
definitely feels better. I am not going to try and draw any conclusions
for at least a year.
Great progress, took some time off and now
need to resume treatment
Hair is much thicker, noticed no new loss
since I've started treatment
I have been taking 0.5 mg dutasteride since
June 2006, and I have experienced positive results... growth of hair in
the crown area. I started to notice changes in approx. 2 months. I had
been taking Propecia prior to Avodart.

over the years

good response, some regrowth
stopped progression of my hair loss immediately
initial shedding, then regrowth
Started Avodart in 2002 due to thinning of
hair. Thinning stopped after a few months and regrew some new hair.
I was a little nervous to start the Avodart
because I have heard so many stories about an increased shed, and I waited
a few months before starting the medication because of this. I was already
shedding, and I did not notice an increase in my existing shed after starting
the Avodart. At this point, my shed has decreased and the quality of my
hair has improved. It definitely feels a bit thicker and looks a little
less see through in front. I have not noticed any changes with my temples
yet. Overall, I am very happy with the results so far.
Loss has stopped.
No additional loss of hair since
Once I started the thinning stopped and it
started to thicken. I have maintained my hair.

the stability and hope to regrow some new hair over the next 6-12 months
have been using it for well over 5 years, and propecia
prior to that for 10 years total, has honestly worked wonders, started
balding at 20, still have what most would consider a full head of hair.
Lose much less hair after taking Avodart
Little or no regrowth but my hair loss has
been halted
began thinning at age 25. took propecia for
a couple of years with little results. hair continued to thin. began taking
avodart after that with good results. have been using avodart for several
years and have had good response - maintained hairline and some regrowth
on crown
some small growth
I had tried a couple different treatments
before Avodart. Avodart was the first thing that really helped. Before
I started taking Avodart I would notice a lot of hair on my hands in the
shower everyday, but after a month or two of taking Avodart I noticed a
big change in the amount of hair I was losing until finally I was not losing
an abnormal amount at all. I would definitely say that my hair is thicker
now after taking Avodart.
After having initial success with propecia,
I experienced heavy shedding after about 6 years. I started on Avodart
and the shedding stabilized. I have seen patterns of thickening and regrowth,
followed by some thinning and shedding. Overall I have definitely seen
positive results with Avodart
seems to stop loss
I have been treating my hair loss successfully
with avodart for 7 months (my endocrinologist also gave me one month supply
in addition to the one I received from medical wellness center). I think
my hair is finally coming back to where it was and it seems to only be
getting stronger. I took propecia for a year and a half and though it stopped
the hair loss and I did get some regrowth after 8 months it was not satisfactory.
I don't even think I will need surgery now.
My response has been great! It took about 3 months to
notice any changes with some initial shedding, but since, I have regrown
and maintained my hair
began noticing decrease in shedding at 3 months
Have responded very well to the medication and have begun
to see results. There have ben no side effects
I noticed thinning at the temples when I was 20. I started
taking Propecia and it worked for a couple years, but it's effects have
stopped. The thinning began again all over my head.
I started noticing positive hair growth about
two months after starting Avodart. My hair loss has not progressed for
the last three years and is noticeably thicker. I started noticing my hair
thin when I was 18 and from that point the hair loss progressed rapidly.
Propecia did help slow my hair loss and regrow hair throughout my crown
and hairline. Avodart has done a great job stopping the hair loss and making
my hair noticeably thicker without any side effects. I am very pleased
with Avodart
My response to Avodart has been great. Totally
filled in my thinning hair on the back, top, and even some areas in the
front.
Avodart appears to have stopped the loss of
my hair at the back of my head.
KEEPING EXISTING HAIR
hair loss stopped
Maintained hair for 5 years

Hair loss seems to have diminished
pretty much maintained what I have, and a

areas and the back. No side effects. Product is fantastic. It took about
6 months to really notice an initial difference.
I seem to have been able to maintain hair
growth to roughly time of initial use.
hair stopped falling out
No regrowth, but shedding diminished
VERY GOOD AT MAINTAINING HAIR
a couple months to notice reduced loss, some thickening
It took about 6 months to see results. Top of head had
both thickening and regrowth
I started using Avodart about 2-3 years ago..
Initially I experienced heavier than normal shedding which I understood
to be normal. Since then however, the rate of shedding and recession has
declined to almost none. I have maintained my current hairline and thickness
since using Avodart.
I started noticing regrowth within the first
6 months. i've had great luck on the medicine with no side effects at all.
Have not experienced regrowth, hair is very slowly thinning,
not sure if it would be worse if I was not on Avodart
I've been using for a while and it seems to help in hair
retention with some regrowth
The crown has thickened, and I don't shed so much
maintain hair
I saw thickening of hair within a couple months
slowed loss-more regrowth
stoppage of loss some thickening of hair
Shedding the first 3 months, then regrowth
I believe my hair has gotten thicker with
this medication.
MAINTAINING
I have noticed thickening hair and smaller hairs start
to come in around the 6 month mark. Hair seems to be holding the thickened
state. I started to notice the receding of hairline about 20 years old.
I started on minoxidil only. That worked to thicken up my hair but not
stop the loss. At 24 I started on propecia. That worked but I wanted something
stronger to attempt to stop further loss.
Slowed to stopped progressive hair loss
I noticed a decreases in shedding almost immediately.
I have continued to have decreased shedding after 1.5 years on Avodart
slowed shedding, took a few months
Thickening of hair on the crown, hairline
still receding slowly.

far good results have been maintained
I have had regrowth in the front of my hairline.
have been using Avodart for several years

first year of usage but the shedding decreases after the first year. Hair
seem to be thicker on previous thinning area. Since start of usage of avodart
have had improvement in thickness and strength of hair. Not all thinning
area of scalp regrew hair but large area of thinning area now has hair
coverage.
3 months to notice change
since started on avodart, have noticed slow regrowth,
any area which was devoid of hair has shown regrowth
Seems to have thickened up in the crown area after about
5 months of use.
I have not had any regrowth but there has been no more
hair loss
I would say it has been very good at maintaining,
with a minimal amount of new growth.
There's not as much hair in the sink anymore
and my hair seems to be coming in fuller. The loss definitely seems to
have stopped.
have had an excellent response to this treatment

Slowing down of hair loss
At the age of 20 I began to notice a gradual
loss of hair. I have used propecia in the past to treat my hair loss and
had great success initially but over the course of time the treatment was
less effective. I am currently using Avodart with much success.
after 3 months maintained and grew some hair,
no initial shedding
Starting using Avodart after taking Propecia
for years. Propecia seemed to be losing its effect. Avodart has kept all
my hair intact with limited regrowth. Did experience some initial shedding
nothing to bad.
Hair loss seems to have come to a crawl. I
lose hair, but it seems to be under the normal 60-100 hairs we shed every
day.
I've noticed a lot of hair growth, very satisfactory,
no side effects yet!
Hair loss significantly decreased
slow thickening
Noticed thickening, vertex filling in, and
regrowth at hairline at about 3 months. Significant thickening and regrowth
at both locations now in month 6.
stabilized hair loss at dose of one avodart
every other day, but started to lose again. upped dose to 0.5 once a day,
but erectile dysfunction happened so dropped dose down.
I have been taking avodart for over a year
now, and have noticed a significant slowing of my hair loss. I am using
it along with 5% topical minoxidil. At this point I would say may hair
loss is at about 1/10th the rate it was prior to using avodart.

Avodart has allowed me to maintain the remaining

thicker. It continues to look better and better. I have been very happy
with the results and have not experienced any negative side effects.
I started using Avodart 2 years ago. I noticed
positive results with in 2 months. Six months later there was significant
reduction in hair loss but hair loss did not stop completely, I still have
small amount of hair loss. But during this period I had considerable regrowth
and my hair looks thick.
Reduced by Propecia, then Proscar intake,
then substantially reduced by Avodart over a year and a half ago with no

male relatives on both sides are horseshoed at my age. It is keeping the
hair i have but no new growth.
I started using Avodart about 2 years ago.
I noticed positive results with in 2 months. Six months later there was
significant reduction in hair loss but hair loss did not stop completely.
I still have small amount of hair loss. But during this period I had considerable
regrowth and my hair looks thick.
My formerly almost-bald crown is now largely
filled in with hair growth. I am no longer losing hair and will probably
have a full head of hair in a year or two, if I continue to use Avodart.
I have been using Avodart for a couple of
years. I initially saw pretty good results (in the back, but not so much
in front) after about 6 months. Since then, there has been no additional
progress, but it has been maintained. Gradual hair loss since 20, but has
been controlled and somewhat reversed by Avodart and Minoxidil.
My hairloss has completely stopped! After
6 months the shedding had halted and new growth was clearly visible in
the front and back, with a general thickening all over
Seeming cessation of hair loss. No major increase
in shedding. Some regrowth.
third year - no problems
No observable hair loss, no shedding, thickening
of hair, no observable side effects.
No shedding, very slow but improving. Seems
as if it regrows at the pace you lost it.
Moderate regrowth after about 1 yr. Progress
has continued over the years.
Stopped shedding, not much regrowth needed.
No initial shedding, gradual slowing of loss,
no regrowth
Taking AV for 17 mths, very noticeable thickening
especially on crown
Progress was noticed within a month after
treatment a couple of years ago, has worked great!
Significant regrowth was obtained
I have maintained my hair thickness
definite regrowth
I have been on the treatment since July 2006.
I have had more regrowth in the crown during the last year. My hair has
continued to thicken all over except in the front. I have not experienced
any shedding
Hairline did improve and has mostly maintained
but there have been cycles of shedding.
Seems to be working.
It's working.
maintaining most of the hair and slow low
in the front corners of my head
Some initial shedding, maintain hair
approx 3 months before I saw changes. Improvement
in temporal areas, decrease in general hair loss. Moderate initial shedding.
So far do good. No changes but no further
noticeable hair loss
I have been on this product for a number of
years and find it to be very beneficial to retaining my hair. I am having
no issues
Maintenance
Initial shedding within a month, regrowth
within 6 months.
no changes, but no further loss
maintaining
No new hair loss, some regrowth
Stopped Shedding. Minor regrowth
I have been using for two years, and results
are good. Have kept hair.
The hair on the crown of my head is mI began
loosing my hair in college. My hair was thin on the crown of my head and
was receding at my temples. I have achieved some regrowth and thickening
in both those regions while using avodart much thicker. I also had some
regrowth on my temples
Great response. Hair loss has stopped completely
for years.
Doing quite well, noticed a change in about
3 months, great growth in crown and vertex.
I have been using it for 7 years now and have
not regrown hair but have not lost any additional hair so i am very happy.
I noticed thinning at age 18 and my doctor
recommended a regimen which consisted of rogaine and propecia. This combination
worked wonders for about four years. I decided to switch to Avodart and
initially noticed thickening, although my hairline has continued to recede.
Still, I'm pleased with the results and believe that I'm in much better
shape than I would be had I not done used anything (my father was nearly
completely bald by his late 20's). At this point, I use Avodart for maintenance.
Initially, I noticed some regrowth when I began using Avodart, but gradually
the growth slowed and now I believe that it's best used to maintain what
I have.
Regrowth was noticeable within a few months
and continued for several years. Regrowth has stabilized at it's present
level for several years now.
I have noticed my hair seemed to peak in thickness
within the first 2 years on Avodart. However, I am still very happy with
my hair. And my hair is stable since I started my treatment.
Maintaining with Avodart for 4 years.
I have been using avodart for just about 3+
years and I have had positive results from using Avodart. I used propecia
before avodart and i did not see the results that i have with avodart.
Since using avodart my hair has continued to stop falling out and the thickness
has remained as well. I started to see results using avodart in about 4-6
months.
hair started falling out at age 24. propecia
worked, but then i tried avodart and it worked much better. response has
been great. hairloss slowed about 1 month after start of treatment. i have
been on for a few years now and i am still loosing hair, but at a much
slower rate.
Hairloss has slowed
Maintaining current hair count
No shedding. Some thickening after 5 months.
Hair loss has completely stopped.
Hair loss has been slowed down tremendously
it has slowed down the progression of my receding
hair line
I was on it for 6 months, then stopped for
5. I sledded heavily in those 5 months. I've been back on Avodart for approximately
18 months. It just seems to help maintain, never experienced any noticeable
growth.
Slowed progression of hair loss as compared
to that of brothers.
Reduced hairloss with possible regrowth.
I had some initial shedding in the first few
months but have since not only re-grown hair but have had terrific maintenance
and I am very pleased with my results.
Been taking Avodart for three years. Has worked while
for me in regrowing much of my hair and maintaining the rest. I use it
in combination with minoxidil. Never had any side-effects.
Have been on Avodart for several years now.
No ill effects. It also let me grow back a moderate amount of hair. Most
import. It has arrested the process. I had been losing my hair for 15 years
prior to using avodart. It basically grew back what I lost in the last
7 years of the process. My hair definitely feels thicker on top. I can
see a lot of hairs growing around my temples as well. The crown has also
filled in. I didn't experience shedding, and still don't. It's been 6 months
and I'm very happy so far. Looking forward to the next 6.
there was some shedding from months 2-4 or so..Things
seem to be going well now after 6 months im happy with the treatment. Hair
loss has stopped and things are thickening up.
I have been very inconsistent in taking Avodart.
However, even with sporadic usage I've notice almost a complete cessation
of hair loss. I can't say that I've grown any, but just maintaining what
I have is of enormous benefit.
Hair is thicker, and decreased shedding.
thickening hair, hairloss stopped
Started experience hairloss at age 19. Used
propecia for a few years and then started using avodart as soon as it came
out on the market and i now have a full head of hair!! It took about 2
weeks to see results.
I shaved my head at the beginning of the process
so I didn't notice much shedding. I did notice that my hair thickened around
3-4 months, my crown hair is much thicker, as well as all the hair on the
top of my head. It is amazing, I can't even see the places where I was
losing hair in the mirror anymore.
Retention of existing hair. Hair loss has
almost stopped. Not aware of obvious regrowth.
Excellent. People can't even tell I have thinning
hair now.
ok, stable
Shedding after first three months, hair thickening
ever since, some lesser shedding every three months
Since beginning Avodart the alopecia has subsided
and regrowth has been observed. Further hairloss has not been noticed since
using the medicine
I have maintained with some regrowth the hair
I started with and feel that my hair line is not receding.
Noticed response after two months or so. No
initial shedding. Had been using proscar previously. Still experiencing
regrowth, though very, very slow.
Probably 6 months until results were seen.
Discontinued medicine while having children about 16 months ago.
Positive change in thickness
great
Have been using since 2003 with no side effects
other than hair growth and stabilization of hair loss
within a couple of months
Responding well, hair loss slowed or stopped
I've been on avodart for 1.5 years now, hair
thickened up within first year and for the past year I don't see too much
additional regrowth, but I like my current hair volume and would be happy
to maintain the current level.
Hair stopped thinning upon starting. Hair
has thickened a little. I have maintained my hair.
There was some initial shedding in the first
month but then the shedding stopped. Within 3 months I noticed that my
hair seemed stronger, and I no longer noticed hair loss in the shower.
It has worked well for me in that it has stopped the loss and improved
the quality of hair dramatically
Avodart has dramatically slowed my hair loss
over the years
Began taking in 2007, have maintained hair
count
Mostly it has stopped the hair loss that is
common in my family.
My initial shedding has ceased and I've noticed
growth and thickening of hair.
has really helped maintain hair
I began losing my hair in college and then
used propecia. Saw some results but then shedding occurred. Since I've
been taking Avodart its been great! Prior to using Avodart, there was shedding
with Propecia. Since using Avodart, I have seen great benefits.
I have been taking Avodart for several years
now and I have filled my prescription through your website for several
years. I started taking propecia approximately 10 years ago and I switched
to Avodart a few years ago. I believe that taking propecia and Avodart
have halted or substantially slowed down my hair loss.
It has kept everything stable.
Response has been good. Have been using it
for 5 years. Haven't had any shedding in years. Hair continues to thicken
and grow.
Able to slow rate of hair loss, regain some.
excellent results, initial shedding, now long
term maintenance
initial shedding, then thickening
I have had great success with avodart. i have
maintained the hair I have and have even thickened in some areas. There
are still periods of shedding, but they are usually followed with regrowth
and thickening.
I have been using Proscar between 2005 and
2006 and Avodart since 2006 with phenomenal regrowth esp. since going on
Avodart. I experience normal daily shedding never in excess of 100 follicles
per day. Changes became visible about three to six months after beginning
Avodart intake and the hairline thickened considerably during the initial
year. Initial shedding occurred as described but the fallout re-grew along
with the new growth. I have had no side effects from the use of Avodart.
been using avodart and propecia for a long
time with great results. 9+ years overall
No real regrowth, but loss has slowed
I have responded well-hair loss has stabilized
bigger hairs where smaller used to be 12 months
The hair thickened in the back and the rate
of loss at the front slowed.
I have taken Avodart for many years now, perhaps
three or four. Avodart has proven more effective than Rogaine or Propecia
in treating my male pattern baldness. While I have not regrown any hair
while using Avodart, my hair loss has stopped. I first noticed that I was
losing my hair during the fall of my junior year in college (fall 1993).
I began to use Rogaine the following spring. Rogaine slowed my hair loss
but did not stop it. I began using Rogaine and Propecia in 1997. The combination
slowed my thinning still further but I continued to lose hair. I had a
hair transplant in December 2003, but I was not pleased with the results,
as only 900 or so follicular units were transplanted, and many of them
did not take. I began using Avodart three or four years ago. I am very
pleased with the results. Avodart has stopped further hair loss. I am the
only male in my family over the age of thirty-five who is not bald on top.
Excellent response for 1 - 2 years, maintaining
hairs and slowing down any loss since
Thickening within four months of using the
product
Hairloss started in my early 20s. It gradually
became worse until I started using Avodart. My hair loss has essentially
stopped. I'm very pleased with the results. They are sustained.: Excellent!
My hair loss has essentially stopped thanks to the Avodart. Hair definitely
grew back and now I look like a normal, thin-haired middle age man. I'm
very pleased. Thank you Medical Wellness Center.

regrowth began after 6 months of use approx
2 years ago...further hair loss has stopped
Avodart slowed hairloss however, hairloss
did continue just at a slower pace. Upon discontinuation of Avodart hairloss
accelerated.
I began to notice slowing of hair loss after
about 3 months and had slight thickening during the first year. since then

regrowth
Avodart has stopped my hairloss. I'm not sure
when I noticed that my hairloss has stopped. Any regrowth has been minimal.
The left side of my hairline started receding. When I started taking Avodart
my hairloss has pretty much stopped.
It has slowed the progression
Stabilized hair loss, no shedding
No additional loss at all while taking Avodart
began taking Avodart 6 years ago until about
a year ago, and though I noticed that my hair seemed to thin progressively,
it seemed to maintain its appearance adequately. I took a break from Avodart
for approximately a year, and have noticed what I believe is increased
rate of thinning. Therefore, I would like to resume use of Avodart. I have
not experienced any noticeable side effects, including shedding, throughout
my use.
Have been on Avodart for several years- hair
has thickened and remained thicker over this period. Thinning at temples
began when I was 18, has successfully subsided following treatment with
avodart.
Good results, hair is thicker and is regrowing
on the crown and hairline is stable
slight regrowth, however, prevention of further
loss
no shedding, new growth 90 days after initial
dose
continued regrowth
Good so far, no shedding, retaining all hair.
Less fallout
I first started to notice regrowth of hair
after 3-4 months of use and have noticed a thickening of hair close to
the pre-shedding time frame over the year(s) that followed. My hair became
noticeably thinner in my late 20's. I began to take Rogaine and Propecia
which seemed to work for a number of years. After several years the Propecia
stopped working and my hair-loss became very noticeable again. I began
to take Avodart a few years ago and have had a return of hair thickness
similar to pre-thinning days.
Saw improvement after 90-120 days. Avodart
regrew much more hair than Rogaine or Propecia did.
; I started using Rogaine, graduated to Propecia,
and have been using Avodart for the last couple of years. Although my hair
is thin, I don't have any bald spots. I noticed reduced hair loss after
3 months
initial shedding for 3 months followed by
slowing of hair loss
Hair became slightly thicker.
Response has been satisfactory in maintaining
hair
I continue to take it to maintain what I have
slight regrowth - no loss. Started using
avodart and noticed regrowth and decrease in loss within the first week.
Started losing it at 19 then tried several treatments. Then Started taking
avodart an it worked very well.
Good response, initial thickening, good maintenance
with occasional shed
regrowth started at 4.5 months
Started many years ago ha great results 1st
2 years then stabilize. haven't lost any more hair since I have been on
Avodart static N 3
After starting Avodart several years ago I
did have some initial shedding. That ended rather quickly and then I saw
some limited regrowth. It has pretty much been steady state since then.
Hairloss began at age 25. I tried Propecia for 2 years with no success.
I have used Avodart since age 27 with good results.

hairloss seems to have stabilized

a decrease in body hair, however.
I've been using Avodart for a couple of years
and have had good results.
Positive response. i haven't noticed any continued
loss but not sure if there has been any gain. i have been using the product
for several years now.
its been great. I received the initial prescription
in March of '08. So far I haven't lost any hair and thickened my existing
hair. First few months some shedding i suppose, but it didn't last long,
now things are stable.
Excellent results. Regrowth started in approximately
two months. No side effects
I think after about 6 months I started noticing
a difference in the thickness of my hair, now I don't ever even worry about
what my hair looks like in that regard. When I was about 18 I started noticing
that my hair was looking thinner in certain areas. I tried Propecia and
I'm not sure if I noticed too much of a difference but when I started taking
Avodart I am very happy with how my hair looks now.
shedding after 3 months, some recent regrowth

with the results. I have been using Avodart for years & it has made
my hair thicker overall.
I had a little initial shedding followed by
thicken of hair and slight regrowth.
Hair still receding slightly at the temples
but it seems to be keeping most of my hair over the past couple of years.
Basically stopped further hair loss. I started
to use Propecia, then I switched to Avodart 3 years ago. Hairloss slowed
and stopped. I am on Avodart three years ago, before that I used Propecia.
Noticed hair loss in mid twenties and it quickly
progressed, but has since slowed considerably. When taking Avodart 2 to
3 years ago, it appeared to stop altogether, and a little new growth was
noticed.
After about 3 months hair seemed to thicken
up a bit. At the 6 month mark I can really see that I have had a lot of
regrowth and thickening.
No shedding noticed. While taking it I have
maintained the hair I had when starting avodart and have noticed some thickening
in the crown.
noticeable regrowth right away and then gradual
regrowth over six month period, only thickening, no shedding
I believe so far there has only been a slowing
of the process. I have not noticed any appreciable regrowth but I would
like to maintain. I have been using Avodart for about 3 years now
Regrowth and thickening continued after first
3 months. There was mild shedding but I've not noticed anything significant
in recent months only improvement in areas that were thinning.
First noticeable positive results after 2
to 3 months of use. After that, slow but steady progress / regrowth / thickening
of hair... Very satisfied with the results.
Moderate hair regrowth on the back and top
of head. No initial shedding or other changes. Noticed regrowth in about
2 months.

I have regained my hairline and have almost
complete coverage and much thicker hair

Doing well on Avodart. Hair has maintained
thickness with reduction of shedding since prescribed product.
Slight thickening after I started
no regrowth but hair loss seemed to stop
Either no change, or slight improvement of
thickness in past 3 months of this first full year avodart treatment.
The Avodart seemed to significantly slow the
loss of hair. I've taken it for a couple years so I don't really recall
when I started to notice changes.
I have been taking Avodart (0.5mg daily) for
over 5 years and have experienced no shedding since. I can't recall exactly
when I first noticed the halt of shedding - maybe 2 weeks after I first
began taking it. While I have not noticed significant regrowth, I am very
satisfied with its ability to maintain the hair I have. : My hair began
thinning in frontal area of scalp at age 18-19, with slight recession of
hairline. Thinning progressed into my 20's. First began Minoxidil at age
22, first began Propecia at age 26, but no significant reduction in hair
loss until age 28 or 29 when I stopped Propecia and began taking Avodart.
Hair loss appears to have stopped with frontal thinning, with most hair
at crown still present. Have not used Propecia in over 5 years - since
beginning Avodart. I have been using Avodart with Minoxidil ever since.
Initial shedding at first. But it seems to
retain my hair now.

Avodart. I have used it for a few years. It has grown back a significant
amount of hair and I continue to maintain it.

my hair began to thicken considerably. I stopped taking because I couldn't
afford it.
My hair has stabilized since I began taking
Avodart years ago, through Medical Wellness Center. The loss is minimal
each day, with still a thick head of hair. I never had any initial shedding,
or any at all, actually.

Still maintaining current hair thickness.
Good thickening and maintaining existing hair
maintance dose done good so far.....maybe
some slow gradual loss but slowed down
My response has been very good. I noticed
my hair getting thicker after approximately 3 months of treatment and did
not have any issues with shedding. I noticed diffuse thinning of my hair
at around age 20 (1995) and began using minoxidil 2% solution. In later
switched to 5% minoxidil and was prescribed Propecia in 2001. This combination
worked very well up until around 2008 when my hair began to get noticeably
thinner. I began using Avodart in combination with minoxidil 5% 7 months
ago and have noted significant improvements in previously thinning areas.
No initial shedding, no regrowth on temples,
but general thickening and regrowth on top.
I have noticed a slowing of my hairloss which
began gradually during the first six months of taking the pills.
I had no shedding and have noticed a thickening
of hair in the lower crown and have not seen any further hair loss
very good maintenance
I started using Avodart about 2 years ago.
I noticed positive results with in 2 months. Six months later there was
significant reduction in hair loss but hair loss did not stop completely.
I still have small amount of hair loss. But during this period I had good
regrowth and my hair looks thick.
I had a great response to Avodart. I briefly
used the drug (6 months) around 2003. Hair loss was mild at the crown when
I began the medicine. I did experience what I feel was mild shedding for
the first 3-4 weeks. I noticed hair thickening of existing hair at the
root after 2-3 months, and new growth at 3-4 months. At the end of the
six months there was little evidence of any hair loss. I signed up for
another refill around 2005, but never filled the prescription. My hair
loss has gradually continued throughout the last 4-5 years. It is now noticeable
at the crown again.
Hair loss stopped and thickened
I noticed improvement in about 6 months.
Has significantly stalled loss.
decreased loss
I had great response with little shedding.
Been using for about 1.5 years.
After 6 months I saw some more hair. Has stayed
how it is. So far so good.

of Avodart has stopped my hair loss and allowed some to return. Currently
I am a very mild class 2 in front, but not too far from normal.
Avodart seemed to slow my hairloss dramatically,
but it did not reverse it. I have tried Propecia but that is definitely
not ass effective.
My response to Avodart has been very positive.
I started to lose my hair a few years ago and tried Propecia but it didn't
work. I started using Avodart in within 4 months i saw a change in how
thick my hair was and how much I was losing. I didn't really see an shedding
at the beginning but my hair has definitely gotten thicker started to notice
my hair loss in college and it started to get worse after I graduated.
I started using Propecia but not see any results. I continued to lose my
hair. Then when I was around 26 or 27 I started using Avodart and my hair
loss stopped and my hair started to get thicker. Avodart has definitely
stopped my hair loss and my hair is thicker now.
I feel like my hairloss stopped. I wasn't
really loosing too fast... I was just thinning... but I think it may have
thickened it up again in the front.
little initial shedding but it has stopped
now. Have not noticed growth yet.
Loss in 20's then increasing as I approached

had some regrowth.
Respond well.. hair thickened No more hair
loss and some regrowth!
initially noticed significant regrowth in
the first six months. then just maintained status quo for 1-2 years, then
started thinning a little more. but its still clearly slowing the loss.
I have used Avodart for years. It has dramatically
slowed my hair loss.
When started taking avodart in Dec 02 my shedding
decreased very quickly. Had a lot of thinning on the crown. Over time the
crown thickened. I have been able to maintain everything since that time.
I respond very well to avodart and have no side effects. Started losing
hair on crown when I was 25. I took Rogaine and propecia which helped for
a while. After a few years the propecia started to lose its effectiveness
and I started thinning again on the crown. After I started taking avodart
the shedding stopped. My crown then started to thicken up. I have been
able to maintain my hair ever since. Very happy with my progress.
6 months saw noticeable change
I have been taking Avodart for the past few
years and propecia before that. I have significantly more hair left than
both of my siblings.
Have observed some diffuse hair growth
No regrowth. I believe it has substantially

slowed to the point where there have been no notable changes. There hasn't
been any regrowth, however.

I have been on the treatment since July 2006.
During the last year, my hairline has held up well and I have not experienced
a large shedding phase.

well within a year of beginning Avodart treatment. Although thinning has
continued since then, the rate of loss has slowed dramatically.
initial shed, then growth
some general thickening
slowing down of hair loss
I have been treating my hair loss for approximately
12 years. I initially used propecia, but switched to Avodart several years
ago. I have filled my prescriptions via medical wellness center for several
years. For the last 12 years, propecia and now Avodart have stopped my
hair loss. I started losing my hair approximately 20 years ago and Avodart
has limited my hair loss substantially. I started losing my hair when I
was 19. I gradually lost my hair until I was approximately 27. At age 27,
I decided to do something about my hair loss. I started taking propecia.
After about 5 years of taking propecia I switched to Avodart. Propecia
and Avodart have slowed down substantially my hair loss and as a result
my amount of hair over the last 10 years is approximately the same.
I've been taking avodart for six months now.
Slight shedding to begin with, but now I don't notice any hairloss. I have
yet to notice any thickening or regrowth just yet.

have had a gradually receding hairline since
my early twenties which has been mitigated by Propecia and Minoxidil at
first and effectively stopped by Avodart. I have had regrowth and a generally
thicker hair and have had no side effects from Avodart or Minox. I always
obtain my Avodart prescriptions from MWC and consider my treatment very
effective.

hair stylist noticed hairloss at age 18, but
I didn't believe her until I was 20. started with Rogaine at age 25, didn't
see noticeable results, switched to Propecia after 6 months, and it helped
for the next 8 or 9 years, then stopped working. switched to generic avodart,
didn't see results either then switched to genuine avodart and started
to see great results, and my hair has slowly but steadily getting fuller.

Very quick response with regards to slight

not noticed any initial or subsequent shedding and have noticed significant
and ongoing regrowth in all thinning areas (especially along the hairline).

vertex sections of my scalp, and noticed a lack of shedding overall. The
new growth was visible after 6 months, and the shedding subsided after
only 2 months.

Regrowth has been very slow but consistent over that period.

Regrowth has been very slow but consistent over that period.
it's been thickening nicely
I've been on it for years. It severely slowed
down hair loss and I've been able to maintain what I have for years
Treatment has been beneficial. I've begun
to notice healthier thicker hair. This occurred just recently since the
start of my treatment. Began at around age 20. Slowly progressed, and about
one year ago I saw intense hair-loss progression, in which I began a treatment
of minoxidil and propecia. However, these treatments have had little to
no affect on the recovery and thickening of my hair. Since the start of
my Avodart treatment I have just begun to notice considerably more improvement,
however I most definitely need to benefit from further treatment of Avodart.
No side-effects at all. Progress started showing
after about 3 to 4 months, by regrowth of hair where I had lost hair or
where hair started to grow thin. No initial shedding.

8 months. Thickening hair in crown area
hair loss began to decrease after a few months
of using avodart. there was some very modest regrowth of hair at the crown
during the first year. since then, any hair loss has been greatly reduced.
I believe that it took about 6 months to see
changes. No initial shedding. Hair began to thicken, then regrow, especially
on the crown.

I noticed thickening around 3 months in...
I have been taking Avodart on and of for the
past 7 years, and have found that when on Avodart, my hair has seemed to
maintain its density, or at least slowed down the thinning, and while off,
has seemed to lose density relatively quickly. I have never had any shedding
episodes thus far, and side effects have been minimal and not noticeable.
I am at probably a Norwood II, with diffuse thinning, and very little loss
at temples, but more loss on the crown, though Avodart seems to have helped
maintain my hair.
Hairloss stopped completely after 6 months.

area in college. I started talking propecia and when I heard about avodart
tried that and I have stayed at a class 2 more or less since then. I've

years ago. Which is to say it seems to have stopped or significantly slowed
any further hair loss.

stopped hair regression, filled in crown
Avodart has worked well in growing back hair
on the crown and hairline in the first year. I am currently maintaining
the hair I've gained through Avodart.
The Avodart continues to work satisfactory
as my hair continues to maintain the thickness without shedding. I have
been on Avodart for several years with the first 12 months a noticeable
difference in the amount on my head.
I started with Avodart in 2003 and within
a few months noticed that it was maintaining my hair better than propecia.
With propecia my loss had slowed but I was still seeing thinning. Since
starting Avodart the thinning has stopped. I have seen a little regrowth
in the back but in the front it has mostly kept me stable after years of
thinning and losing.
Positive results to treatment with increased
thickness in hair. Due to relocation, I had to postpone use which has resulted
in increased loss. Clearly use of Avodart has show positive hair growth.
Thickening of hair is being noticed, shedding
reduced, not much regrowth to be honest

Wish I had taken before and after photos to
be sure, I'm think I've at least stopped progressing MPB. Fresh after a
haircut I think the hair looks thick and am very happy with it.
Response to Avodart treatment described::
I did not have any shedding that I noticed. After a period of several weeks,
I started to feel that the thinner area on top of my head appeared to be
thicker. The hair was less fragile and seemed fuller. I did not regrow
my lost hairline, but the hair on my head seemed to be more healthy.
I have been taking Avodart for many years
now. Initially in the first couple of months there was shedding. Since
then I have not had any hair loss or shedding. my hair is no longer thinning.
Although I have not experienced any regrowth, I believe it has halted by
hair loss.
I have been using Avodart for over four years
with amazing results. The initial shedding phase ended about six months
in and I saw real progress in under a year (thickening and regrowth.)
Response has been very positive. Noticed positive
changes, thickening of hair and hair regrowth after a few months to 6 months
and has continued to remain thick with no hair loss

Very good results - stopped hairloss, good

Initial progress was visible after 3 to 6
months, and gradually continued to progress. Progress was mainly regrowth

My hair looks much healthier and is much thicker.
I also regrew hair on my temples and on the crown of my head.
Slowed progression of receding hairline
I started using Avodart a couple of years
ago and the results have been great. It took a couple months to see changes

has stopped and as I mentioned it is also thicker.

on my life.
I saw an improvement after about 3 months
and have continued to see thickening of the hair.
Significant reduction in hair loss after about
2 months
Stopped further hair loss some regrowth on
crown
It has stopped loss and induced some growth
have been taking avodart for five to six years
and have had no side effects. my initial condition was thinning hair on
the crown and frontal area of the scalp. i was experiencing lots of hair
shedding. after i begun treatment with avodart the hair shedding started
to slow down after 6 months of usage. within a year the shedding had stopped
and some noticeable regrowth of hair had occurred on my crown and frontal
area of the scalp. have maintained full coverage of scalp and hair shedding
is minimum. hair is thickened over past 2 years and have no side effects.
my hair started thinning at age 35. a gradual shedding of my hair left
my scalp with thinning hair. after trying several products for hair i started
treatment on propecia for about 2 years. i then started treatment with
avodart and have been using avodart for the past five years.
Helped with scalp itch a lot, still determining
its effect on stopping/slowing the hair loss
I have used it for a number of years. Within
the first 6 - 9 months a saw significant hair regrowth. Since then I have
sustained that hair and lost no more.

No shedding, regrowth in some areas and maintaining
in thinning areas
Since starting Avodart with you years ago
(2006 was first consultation with your site, with refills throughout the
years) Avodart has slowed my thinning hair and even experienced new hair
growth. Have had almost no hair loss since starting Avodart, when before
it was quite rapid. I love it.
have responded well to Avodart, which I have
used for about six years now. I do not recall any initial shedding. While
I have not regrown any hair, my hair has stopped falling out since I started
using Avodart. Prior to using Avodart, I tried both Rogaine and Propecia
and Rogaine and Propecia in combination. While these drugs slowed my hair
loss, they did not entirely stop it. Avodart, in short, is the best hair
loss drug that I have tried.
Rapid decrease in rate of hair loss after
a few months and some thickening of hair over a few years
Avodart has helped me maintain and regrow
hair over the frontal and temporal regions.
Has largely maintained hair
Hairloss is negligible when taking Avodart.
I started to notice results in roughly 6 mo.
Nothing dramatic, just reduction in the amount of loss.
some initial shedding but has stopped. Hair
starting to grow in sections. Initially one big bald area now 33% has long
hair growth. Other 66% has small thin hair growing.
Completely stopped hair loss with no side
effects
Continued use since 2005, resulting in ongoing
maintenance of existing hair and follicle retention.
Slight regrowth on top and filling in on crown
Growth and shed cycles are about 4 months
I began to gradually lose my hair at the age
of twenty. I used propecia with great success but over the course of time
it was not as effective. I then used avodart with great success and continue
to use it.
Response has been very good, most hair loss
stopped over period of approx. 4 years of use
thicker hair, less oily scalp
Very good results with absolutely no thinning.
Full head of hair!
I have used Avodart for almost 10 years and
have had great results in reducing the effects of balding.
Been using Avodart for 3+ years. Has worked
well in maintaining all existing hair over that time and has helped regrow
Some regrowth, steady ever since
Avodart has worked well. My hairline has receded
very slightly in the front, but the rest of my hair has thickened and I
have no further balding. I definitely feel it has slowed the pace.
Hair loss has stopped.
Significantly slowed hair loss.
I've been using it almost 10 years very successfully.
had some initial shedding. shedding stopped
and growth began. Slight shedding periodically.
maintaining existing hair
Avodart seems to work fine for me. Hair loss
has stopped, and there has been some regrowth and thickening.
Shedding has been completely reduced. Showing
signs of thickening on the crown, no change on the front of scalp Gradual
thinning from mid 20s onwards. Hairloss was minimized by propecia for several
years but seemed to loose effectiveness. I have been on Avodart for well
over a year now and it seems to be helping maintain my hair.
No regrowth - basically the treatment seems
to have dramatically slowed the progression of hair loss. I've been using
avodart since its been available and my hair line has had minimal recession.
Appears to have stopped hair loss
I have been using Avodart for years now. Initially,
in the first year I saw some regrowth, but the primary continuing effect
has been to halt any continued loss of hair.
Stopped shedding. Minor improvement
I've been using Avodart for the past 4 years
and have had nothing but positive continuous regrowth. It's been amazing
for me.
it is maintaining my hair
It's difficult to tell exactly how well things
are working at this point. I took Propecia for 2 years prior to starting
Avodart and my rate of lose was already low.
Avodart has stopped my hair loss. My hair
has been stable since shortly after starting it.
Good retention
Using it for six months. Significant regrowth
of hair.
starting noticing results (minor regrowth)
in 2 - 3 months
I've been on Avodart for more than 2 years,
and on Propecia for about a year prior. I still experience hair loss, but
much less than before I started with Avodart and Propecia. I use Avodart
alone with topical Rogaine.
I noticed an increase in hair thickness by
month 4 and, overall, a dramatic reduction in hair loss during treatment
i started avodart three years back, i am happy
to say that it has maintained/slowed my hairloss
have stopped the loss
I have a receding hairline and there was gradual
thickening of the hair.
Avodart has worked great for me. I started
noticing changes around 3-6 months after I started. No initial shedding.
Some thickening of hair.

I have maintained my hair and stopped progression

Hair loss stabilized after 1st 6 months and
has continued the same.
Slight shed at 3 months, regrowth "peace fuzz"
at front temples. Unsure of thinking on crown, but no additional loss.
Continued hair growth and reduction in additional

No shedding. Some regrowth. Halted loss
Has slowed down hair loss
no initial shedding, hair thickened and has
remained that way
I have been on avodart now for a little over
3 years, my hair is doing well. I saw regrowth initially, now it is stable.
I started noticing thinning at 21. It got worse gradually and I got on
avodart through medicalwellnesscenter at age 23. I have responded well
and my hair is still doing fine now at 26.
initial thickening and regrowth when I started
years ago. now its just preserving it.
thickening
moderate growth after first year
Gradual thickening of hair at the temples
Started working in 2 weeks, stopped my hair
loss and grew new hair back!
no additional thinning
Haven't noticed much regrowth just trying
to maintain what I currently have
Response to Avodart treatment described::
Gradual loss from age 19 through 21. Then I used Propecia which slowed
it down but didn't stop it. When I started taking Avodart approximately
6 years ago that is what stopped it and has kept it stable. As per my past
forms for renewal, the biggest difference I noticed was in the first year
or so. I saw thickening in the back crown area and a stop of the thinning
in the front. Over the past several years I have had strong maintenance,
I don't see any noticeable loss of hair. This has stopped since I have
been on Avodart.
8yrs - maintained
I have been taking Avodart since 2004 and
I believe it has helped me to maintain the hair that I have now. No initial
shedding or regrowth, just maintenance.
Continue to respond well to treatment
During the first few months I didn't notice
anything such as shedding. But maybe there was and I didn't notice. I have
noticed slight thickening of the hair which is why I am interested in renewing
my prescription for Avodart. I hope that more positive changes will take
place as I continue taking avodart for more than 6 months. I think that
I will continue to have hair regrowth or keep what I have while taking
avodart.
Hair began to thicken with the first couple
months of taking Avodart
slight regrowth, reduced hair loss, hair mildly
thicker but nothing significantly different
Hair loss stopped long ago using Avodart.
Using it to maintain
Response has been excellent. Been using it
for years now.
I first noticed my hair loss at age 19. I
took Propecia for a number of years. Later on I stopped taking Propecia
and started taking Avodart which stopped my hair loss. There was only a
very limited amount of regrowth but my hair loss stopped.
no major initial shedding. has slowed my hair
loss substantially. very happy with the results. noticed thinning at crown
at 19. tried rogaine/propecia combo and had very little luck. started avodart
at 23 and have noticed much better results.
There's been no change to my hair, no further
loss (which I view as positive)
Noticed hair thickening within 90 days
My response to Avodart has been positive,
with retention of the hairline and crown area, though slight thinning over
the past 8/9 years since using Avodart on and off. No shedding at all.
I noticed significant thickening around 6-9
months after treatment. Since then I have maintained the growth.
I've been using avodart for 3 1/2 years and
it has stopped the progression of my hair loss. I've noticed a little regrowth.
I am happy with my response to this treatment.
Response has been good. Have used for 2 years. Overall
hair is better now then when I started. Mostly maintaining but also have
a little regrowth. First noticed loss of hair around temple region at age
25. Loss continued for several years and started to get thin in the crown
area. Around age 30 took Propecia. Took 1+ year to notice improvement but
then worked well for a couple of years. Results started to slow so then
around age 33 switched to Avodart and results seemed to improve again.
Today crown looks good but have moderate loss around temple.
I have been using Avodart for years. through
you. It worked great in the beginning to regrow now some of what I lost.
I still see tiny improvements overtime, but also know I need this to prevent
the process from restarting. I have had 0 side effects and my wife has
given birth 2 2 healthy boys during the time I have used the drug.had no
shedding. hair thickened up

Seems to significantly slow the balding process
Initial Shedding. Some re-growth. Mostly maintaining

proving to be more effective

Hair loss has continued very very gradually,
but Avodart appears to slow it down significantly.
Response continues to be good. No more shedding
and thinning has stopped.
I have been on Avodart for the past 6 months
with good results. The gradual thinning of hair has stopped and I've seen
some decent regrowth on the crown and vertex. Thankfully, no side effects.
began noticing my hairloss around age 21 or 22, and it began to become
visible to others by 23. I started treating myself with rogaine, but the
results were mild at best. However, recently, when I added Avodart to my
regime, I began to notice decent results for the first time
I have been on Avodart for five years. Definite
hair regrowth without side effects.
Good response. I've been using avodart for
some years now with quite a good result
Haven't ever noticed shedding, believe either
preventing further loss or have had some thickening or regrowth in front/top
of head.

full re-growth. After a brief 4-6 month lapse in prescription treatment,
growth receded again and has been slower but continual after resuming treatment.

thinning since beginning treatment.
Within about 2-4 months I've noticed my hair

head.

It's been a few years now. Slowed/stopped
shedding and receding hairline to a degree.
four years of Avodart with very positive results.
Switched from Propecia and maintained hair with cycles of thickening. Thinning
and receding hair line at age 24. Rapid hair loss for four years. Started
Propecia and rogaine at age 27 and hair loss stabilized and even grew back.
Episodes of shedding and regrowth/thickening ever since. Switched to avodart
I was losing hair almost ten years ago, then
began Avodart and have since regained an enormous amount of hair. It worked
excellently.
I had a decrease in the amount of hair loss
within the first few months of using Avodart. There was very slight regrowth
and thickening of hair, especially toward the back of the top of the scalp,
during the first year of use. Hair loss while using Avodart has been greatly
reduced.
I noticed results within 5 weeks. I usually
have a shedding period prior to regrowth.
Slowly receding since late teens. Propecia
then Avodart for 10 years, no loss in 3- 5 years
Good response. No initial shedding. Hair loss
seems to have been halted and some regrowth.

8 months
I've been using Avodart for almost a decade,
and have maintained my hair throughout this time.
no shedding, some thickening and regrowth
in the beginning now stable.
Hair loss has stabilized, there may be small
regrowth at this point. Using minoxodil on crown area, have seen regrowth
there. There might have been some shedding initially but not much more
than I was experiencing before. Noticed stabilization within a couple of
months or so.
Been using Avodart for about 5 years. Has
worked very well to maintain current hair and noticed some thickening as
well. Started working after about 6 months. First noticed it with shedding
then in the frontal area. Lastly on the crown. Gradual hairloss continued
for several years then started taking Avodart. worked very well to stop
and further loss and grew some hair back.
I was losing hair almost ten years ago, then
began Avodart and have since regained an enormous amount of hair. It was
worked excellently.
Hair loss has slowed as hoped
I took it all of 2011 and maintained hair.
Switched to Propecia early 2012 and noticed that hair appears to be thinning
so would like to switch back to Avodart.
Noticed change in less than six months. No
initial shedding. Definite regrowth.
I have taken avodart for several years. Avodart
has slowed the progression of my hair loss.
Response was better than expected and occurred
during first year. No shedding noticed. Hair thickness achieved on medicine
has been maintained.
Hair began thinning somewhat diffusely
at age 20 and started using Rogaine. Began using Propecia in 2002 with
good response and maintenance for years but effectiveness diminished in
2009. Started using Avodart and have achieved very good results and have
been able to realize more thickness and stabilize hair loss.
started avodart when i was about 25 and it
has been amazing, have lost no hair since in fact i have regrown some in
the crown. And the best part is no side effects.
I noticed improvement in around 6 months.
I have maintained the hair I had and regrown hair on the crown of my head
and a little bit in the front
I started using Avodart about 3 years ago.
I noticed positive results with in 2 months. Six months later there was
significant reduction in hair loss but hair loss did not stop completely.
I still have small amount of hair loss. But during this period I had considerable
regrowth and my hair looks thick. I started gradually losing my hair at
the age of 20. By 25 I lost lot of hair. I started using propecia. There
was some positive result but not significant. So I started using Avodart.
It worked well for me. I have been using Avodart for the past 2 years.
slight initial shedding, positive thickening
and body of hair greatly improved, also new growth in the temporal areas,
lots of peach fuzz but some new thick darker hair in the temporal area,
crown improved greatly and thickened back up completely== no thin area
here any longer.
It's been great in the last few years keeping
the hair I have.
Good Hair Growth and stabilization.
Seems to be some regrowth on crown and reduced
shedding
I may have had some mild shedding but that
was consistent with what I was experiencing prior to starting the Avodart.
I noticed less shedding at approximately 45-60 days after my first dose
Hair loss has stopped after 3 months of treatment.
noticed changes in 3 months
Maintained hair with some new growth at temples
initial shedding, now regrowth
Response to Avodart treatment described::
I have had a good response to Avodart. I have been on the medication for
several years now, and although I have not experienced hair regrowth, I
have stopped losing my hair. I don't recall experiencing any initial shedding
when I began the drug, but I do recall that my hairloss slowed rapidly
after I began the drug and virtually stopped within a few weeks.
I started noticing that my hair
was thinning in the fall of 1993, when I was twenty. I started Rogaine
soon thereafter. Rogaine slowed my hairloss, but never completely stopped
it. I started using Rogaine and Propecia around 1997 or 1998. The combination
slowed my hair loss further, but did not completely stop it. I began using
both Rogaine and Avodart several years back and have had excellent results,
experiencing no further hair loss. In 2004, about the same time I began
Avodart, I had hair transplant surgery. This was a minor surgery, with
only about 500 or so grafts being transplanted. After 6 months, hair filled
into thinning areas.
Significant decrease in rate of hair loss
within the first 6 months and some regrowth in crown area over the course
of several years
Initial shedding for few weeks, hair seem
to thicken and maybe regrow within the first year
Cessation of hair loss and slight regrowth
soon after starting. No additional regrowth over time.
Response has been positive. Hair loss progresses,
but at such a slow rate it is acceptable.
Initial shedding, then gradual thickening
I have been taking Avodart for years and it
has proved effective in slowing hair loss for me.
Have used it for almost 10 years, works exceptional!
Entire family balding, Avodart has worked great for me
Noticed change in less than six months. No
initial shedding. Definite regrowth.
hair count has remained the same
Great response. Hair stopped falling and became
thicker
have noticed that my hair appears thicker
and some regrowth has occurred. Initial progress took approximately 2 months.
I noticed hair loss stopped at 2 months. A
little regrowth at 6 months. Hair loss slowed and thickened within about
3 months, and has been remained pretty stable since starting treatment.
Very good, slowed recession and vertex and
crown grown in considerably since starting
Thicker hair on crown
Since I started using avodart my hairloss
has stopped and my receding hairline has stopped receding. it has been
really effective. I started losing my hair in college. WHen I noticed it
I started using Propecia. it was not very effective so I moved to Avodart.
since i have been using avodart my hairloss has stopped and my receding
hairline has stopped receding
It drastically slowed my hair loss but still
very gradually thinning over time.
Existing hair seems thicker and healthier;
some new hair also grew. Got hair transplants in my 30's. Then started
using Minoxidil. Started propecia when it became available, later switched
to Avodart.
Shedding has stopped some regrowth
slowing of the hairloss process. There has
not been any regrowth.
No shedding. Maintaining density of hair.
I have had good hair regrowth with Avodart.
Hair started reappearing after the first three months.
Slowing down of hair loss, slight regrowth
I've been on Avodart for approximately 2 years.
Prior to that I was on Propecia. Avodart, like Propecia has helped me keep
the hair I have - a kind of pause button on hair loss or a sharp slowdown
of hair loss. Neither Propecia nor Avodart has grown back significant amounts
of the hair I lost prior to being on hair loss meds however. My goal is
to keep the hair I have till a cure for male pattern hairloss emerges..
hopefully. It started in my early 20s. I did nothing about it for some
years and it got worse unfortunately. I finally got on Propecia and for
the first 2 years, not only did I keep the hair I had but it slightly reversed
my hair loss. After about 5 years on Propecia it seemed to lose its effectiveness
slightly. I switched to Avodart and its been stable so far.
I noticed the hair stopped
thinning at 3 mos and I had a shedding at the 4 month mark, at 6 mos I
have regained a good portion of my frontal hairline.. No more hats for
me, the thinned areas at the top of my crown have filled back in and my
hair has become thicker and healthier looking since I started the product,
I have better results with Avodart than I did with propecia. Great product!
Avodart has sustained my current hair.
I did not experience any initial shedding. I have been taking Avodart with
prescriptions from Medical Wellness for several years I began losing my
hair at approximately age 20. I gradually loss my hair (front and crown)
for approximately 7 years until I decided to treat my hair loss at approximately
age 27 with a propecia prescription. Then, I switched to Avodart when Avodart
became available. Taking propecia or Avodart has allowed me to substantially
slow my hair loss and maintain my current amount of hair.
I started taking avodart around 2007 and it
has maintained my hair ever since. It took about 8 months to first see
results in the form of thickening and some regrowth. I first noticed and
was diagnosed with male pattern baldness at age 22. I started avodart soon
thereafter and it has slowed my hair loss considerably in the past 5 years.
I have used it for 3-4 years.....have maintained
my hair
Filling in hairloss. Thicker hair. More noticeable
Thickening all over
Noticed firmer roots within a few days.
I had initial shedding at 4 1/2 months i nto
treatment. Hair started to thicken after that and reached approximately
85% regrowth. The shedding lasted about 3 months. I have periodic smaller
sheds that last about 4 weeks every 5-6 months.
Some initial shedding but then saw regrowth.
Has helped maintain existing hair.
Has stopped the progression of my hairloss
Since taking, hairline has stopped receding.
currently maintaining previous gains.
hair loss seems to have stopped. minor regrowth
Seems to have slowed the fallout of hair
I experienced significant thickening of the
hair and regrowth
Noticed thinning in the crown at 19. It began
to slowly grow larger, so I used Rogaine/Propecia with little results.
When I started taking Avodart, I noticed a major change as it slowed the
shedding down.
I have been on the medication for 5 years and seen wonderful
results. It has slowed my hair loss down substantially. Way more so than
Propecia did.
I have been using avodart treatment since
late 2010, and I started to see results fairly quickly - after the first
30-45 days, I began to experience a thickening of hair where it was thinning
out before.
Gradual regrowth in the temporal regions.
A few months noticed thinning stopped and
some thickening.
Completely stopped hairloss. No shedding
Gradual loss of hair at the hairline starting
at age 19. Minoxidil and Propecia (later Avodart) has stopped the hairloss.
Quickly stopped the fall out and then thickened
up a little. Have now been able to maintain these results for 11 years.
A gradual thickening of the hair. Might have
taken a few months to notice
I started to notice thickening about 10 months
after treatment. My hair has continued to improve
I had initial shedding that occurred within
the first 3 months. I began noticing some hair thickening around the end
of my prescription which would have been 6 months.
Long term maintenance so little to no change
from baseline
Hair loss started between the ages of 20-25.
Or that's when i noticed it. The thinning was mostly in the front area
of my scalp. It has only gotten worse since then but still at a slow pace
until I started taking avodart. I've seen positive results in thickening
and regrowing of my hair.. I have a very positive response to Avodart.
I haven't noticed any side effects with this medication. I noticed a slight
change in my thickness of hair at approximately 13-14 months after starting
avodart. Since then, my hair has been thicker that it has been in the previous
several years. I have been noticing a change in my hair line as it seems
to be regrowing where there used to be hair. The progress is slow but I
am extremely happy with the results
I have been on Avodart for approximately 10
years and the effects have included maintenance of my hair. I have diffuse
thinning and though the quality of my hair has been getting slightly worse
from year to year, this has been very gradual and I believe that Avodart
has helped maintain the hair I have. I have not experienced any bouts of
shedding, and my hairline has remained intact. My hair loss has been diffuse
which I noticed starting at age 19. Over the years, my hair loss has been
gradual, and I have taken Avodart and just a couple years ago, started
on Rogaine foam. My hair has been maintaining itself well over the years,
with only a gradual thinning over time.
It's been a long time on it now. So far it
seems to have helped me maintain what I have without too much thinning
overall.
I've been using avodart for over 4yrs and
I'm happy with my results. My shedding has decreased and I've seen a little
regrowth.
hair thickening all over. some shedding at
hairline
I've been on Avodart for 3 years now and experience
occasional shedding, but overall maintenance is good
A slow down in thinning, less shedding after
about 3-4 months
Hair loss has stopped and hair has grown back
on all of scalp to some degree. No longer have any bald areas. Some shedding
occurred when I started the treatment.
Stared losing hair at 19, after 3 weeks of
avodart my hair began to go back to before I started losing it. Since taking
avodart I now have a full head of hair!
Growing up, I always had a high hairline.
At approximately 22 or 23, my hair began shedding and my hairline began
receding rapidly. It was terrible, and I thought I would be bald in no
time. About six months later, I began taking Propecia, which really stabilized
my hair loss. Since using medication, my hair has remained thick in the
back and the receding in the front has been very gradual. I've been very
happy with the result. Prior to taking Avodart, I had taken Propecia for
about four years. These medications have helped to stem my hairloss. Prior
to taking Propecia, I was having shedding episodes and my hairline was
receding quickly. Avodart has had a continued positive affect and I noticed
even greater thickening. I've been happy with the result.
Maintains reasonably well.
no initial shedding, no longer have any fallout,
filling in slowly with lots of small thin hair, notice thinker hair from
the outside working itself to the center.
Avodart does work but I have noticed a shed
phase that lasts about 3- 4 months before growth resumes along the recovered
hairline.
Things improved within the first few weeks.
Had sheds periodically throughout the last year.
Maintained thickness, periodic shedding
Seems to be working well for me overall. Hair
is stable and I have noticed little to no loss since starting my treatment.
I have been taking avodart for many years.
Initially it took approximately 6 months to see change. It has stopped
thinning of the crown and slowed receding in the frontal areas
Hair loss stopped when I started Avodart a
few years ago.
No initial increase shed. Decrease in overall
rate of shed. Little regrowth at crown, no regrowth at temples.
Avodart has slowed my hair loss, which continues
but very slowly.
initial shedding early on. hair loss stopped
and some regrowth.
I am doing well maintaining my hair line.
Thinning slowed or stopped, some new growth
as occurred.
hair loss essentially stopped in the last
few years with avodart
Maintained hair, no more shedding
My Avodart treatment has resulted in generally
positive results. I have been on Avodart for several years and after beginning
Avodart, I noticed a substantial decrease in hair falling out and even
in the thickness of hair. I strongly believe that Avodart has allowed me
to maintain much of my hair.
Avodart has helped retain the hair that I
have, very little shedding.
I have been using Avodart since the summer
of 2006. I notice the most dramatic change during the first year with hair
regrowth and the thickening of the hair. After that, my hair line continues
to hold after six years of constant usage.
MY RESPONSE HAS BEEN POSITIVE FROM THE BEGINNING.
IT HAS BEEN NEARLY FIVE YEARS AND MY MPB HAS REVERSED COURSE. FIRST NOTICED
IN 1997 AND STARTED ON PROPECIA IN 2008. WAS ON PROPECIA UNTIL APPROX 2006
WHEN I SWITCHED TO AVODART. BOTH WERE HIGHLY EFFECTIVE IN REVERSING MY
MPB.
total restoration of age. No side effects.
been on it for 18 months.
Started noticing regrowth in about 4 weeks.
hair loss began slowing after about 3-6 months.
there may have been some very modest regrowth, especially toward the back
of the top of the scalp, during the first year. but hair loss has dramatically
slowed, if not stopped all together.
Several years ago, I went on it for a year
and experienced favorable hair regrowth in the crown and temples. I stopped
almost two years ago and my hair has been noticeably thinning. Would like
to start again
Mostly preventative against further loss but
definitely some increase in hair density/thickness. Changes were noticed
within 3 months
It stops or slows down my hair loss noticeably.
When I stop taking it, hair loss accelerates again.
Marked improvement over Propecia within 3
months
No regrowth. Hoping it helped slow the loss.

Avodart seems to have stopped hair
shedding and increased thickness of hair on
the side of my head

new regrowth
I shedded a bit, but for the most part my
hair is thicker, darker, and I've seen noticeable changes in pictures

I've noticed a sharp decreasing shedding, occurring within 2 weeks or so
of beginning medication.
I noticed positive growth and thickness changes
within the first few months and over the years the hair has progressively
gotten better and thicker and coverage is great.
Initial shedding, then thickening and moderate
regrowth. less shedding now.
Maintenance of current hair, some thickening
immediately
Avodart has stopped my hair loss for several
years. It works well.

Appears to be working. Shedding decreased
significantly.
Hair has regrown and is not thinning.
My hair has been maintained the two years

Intial minor shedding, then thickening of hair
and shedding stopped.
Avodart taken consistently seems to keep the
amount of my hair in the sink at a minimum and provides retention for existing
hairs.
Avodart has been great. No side effects. Hair
has stayed with me.
Hair thickening usually occurred after 4-5
months of use, shedding has slowed a bit.
Avodart has dramatically slowed my hair loss.
Noticed after 3 months of use
I continue to lose my hair with a receding
hairline but I believe Avodart has slowed down the process
I've been taking it for several years now
and i'm very much a satisfied customer.
No further loss since starting
Noticed a change in about a month. No shedding.
no dramatic regrowth or shedding. after a couple
months I noticed a slight thickening on the crown of my head.
Thickening of hair at first. Very gradual loss
since
There was some mild initial shedding, following
by mild thickening, followed by close-to-100% maintenance. Started thinning
at 17. Began finasteride at 18. Hair loss slowed but didn't stop. At age
28, I began Avodart, and my hair loss has stopped since then (and I've
even had modest regrowth).
I've been On Avodart since it came out in
late 2002. My hair has been holding at NW3 for the past decade. My father
is a NW6 and was almost completely bald at my age. I firmly believe the
working!
Hair loss has slowed significantly. Hair regrowth
on crown is good.
Great response for the past 6 years. Noticeable
slowing down of hair loss.
Noticed it at age 25, was slow and gradual,
at age 35 started propecia, continued taking it with excellent results,
after 10 years stopped working so changed to avodart. After taking propecia
for 10 years with excellent results it stopped working. After starting
Avodart my hair loss stopped or at least greatly slowed soon after, but
there was little or no regrowth. After 8 months I started using Minoxidil
(5%) and received good regrowth, especially on the crown but some in front
as well. After about a year or so I had to cut down to taking 1 Avodart
every other day due to the rising cost. I did not notice any changes for
at least a year until about a year ago when there was a slow and gradual
loss of hair again. It has thinned especially in the back and will become
noticeable if it continues. I feel I will need to try something else in
addition to Avodart/minoxidil as my next step will be to look at a hair
transplant, and would appreciate any advice.
Started noticing changes in about 6 weeks.
Slowing down of hair loss
I've been taking it for over 5 years now. It
is slowing my hair loss but I still have a gradual over all thinning
All good so far .... No issues. Decent hair
growth.
Progress has been steady and maintained, with
wavering thickness possibly due to normal hair life cycles.
Noticed thicker hair in 2- 3 months.
Some initial shedding and some cyclical shedding
but it has not only maintained but regrown my hair
Stabilization of shedding and some regrowth
and thickening.
response is good since I've been using over
a 10 year period
Seems to have slowed loss on crown.
seems to have drastically slowed shedding
hair loss stopped...didn't notice any changes
at all
no shedding. Holding steady state since started.
Avodart has maintained the hair on my scalp.
Hair loss is slower.
I seemed to not shed as much while using Avodart.
I've used it for several years now. Its never
stopped my hair loss completely but does keep it under control. (7 years)
Slowed hair loss significantly (years)
long term use of Avodart is maintaining my hair
density. Hair loss beginning in Mid twenties. Significantly halted with
use of Propecia. Underwent 3 hair transplants and currently use Avodart
to maintain density and prevent further hair loss. ( 6 years)
I have
seen a lot of improvement in stopping hair loss and some improvement in
hair regrowth. I fell like I noticed improvement in 6-9 months.
I had significant regrowth initially and have
maintained well since then (10 years)
Slowly receding hairline has slowed since starting
Avodart several years ago.
Initial shedding. Regrowth within a few months.
Overall, Avodart has helped maintain my hair.
I feel that it has helped slow down the hairloss
process. Hard to say without pictures however.
Took 9-12 months to notice effects. regrew a
good amount of hair at t first. Then just maintaining current hairline
for several years. Started gradually loosing hair at age 25, got progressively
worse. Started using Propecia around age 30 then switch to Avodart around
35. Saw good results from both to regrow some hair and maintain current
hairline.
I have seen a lot of improvement in stopping
hair loss and some improvement in hair regrowth. I feel like I noticed
improvement in 6-9 months
Slight regrowth on crown. Reduced shedding.
No effect on hairline.
I have been taking Avodart for over 5 years.
I had been on Propecia prior to taking Avodart, so when I made the switch,
I did not notice any shedding. I did, however, notice a slowing and/or
stoppage of my crown thinning. I have not noticed much in the way of regrowth
over the past several years.
I have been able to halt any further loss and
have gained some back.
slowed my loss
Have been using 10 years, seeing continued improvement,
no shedding in the last 4-5 years.
Very effective. Noticeable regrowth and stopping
of loss.
Been taking for several years, hair loss has
essentially stopped.
Avodart has stopped additional hair loss these
past 2 years.
Thicker hair, stopped hairloss
I have been taking it for 10 years + previous
to that Propecia. Has worked very well to slow hairloss and grow some back.
Hair line is stable.
I've been on Avodart for years and have had
zero side effects. It has been highly effective in hair growth and maintenance.
Went on Propecia at 23 and saw a good change. Went on Avodart at 28 and
saw a remarkable change. I only take Avodart 2 times a week to maintain.
Good response. Thicker hair growing with greater
texture
Been taking for 10 years. Stopped my hairline
from receding. No noticeable side effects or complications.
stopped balding
Too early to be sure, although hair on the crown
seems to be thickening and getting longer.
I started Avodart about 10 years ago. It started
to give noticeable result within 6 month. No initial shedding was experience,
and hair grew thicker. Over the years the regrowth stopped, but I'm still
maintaining a good amount of hair. I started thinning at age 21, used minoxidil
without noticeable results. after 6 months started on propecia and saw
regrowth. at about 8th year after starting propecia, hair started to thin,
so I got on Avodart and some hair grew back, and I'm able to maintain most
of the hair density in the last 10 years
After 3-6 months or so I noticed my hair loss
had stopped or slowed greatly, although I did not notice any regrowth.
I started using minoxidil at about 6-8 months and had good regrowth around
the crown area, but none at the hairline, though it may have helped further
slow the loss. There was shedding the first few months but not necessarily
more than I had had before starting the medication. To lessen the financial
burden I began taking it every other day at about 8-10 months. I have had
occasional shedding, which may respond to resuming everyday use. The shedding
is not too bad. At this point I still appear to have very slight loss at
the hairline, evidenced by shorter, thinner hairs, but it is extremely
slight and I hope will respond to resumption of everyday use.
I was in my senior year of college and I started
to notice my hair was thinning. I started to see it on my sofa, bed pillow,
etc...I went and spoke with my doctor and he put me on propecia which didn't
seem to work very well. I also tried rogaine for the the front of my hair
line and that didn't really work either. I then started using Avodart (I
used the medical wellness website to get the prescription) and after I
used it for a while I noticed a change in the amount of hair that was falling
out as well the thickness getting stronger. I have been using Avodart ever
since and it has really helped me with my hair loss.
Results begin to appear about a month following
initiation of treatment then mostly hold for the duration of treatment.

a good thing)
have been taking Avodart for a number of years
and it has been quite helpful. It has stopped shedding and thickened my

I basically have most of my hair. The shedding and hair loss I experienced
in my mid-20s has subsided.
Appear to regrow about half the hairs I had
lost.

after taking Avodart and there hasn't been any noticeable hair loss since

it to work quite well in maintaining my hair and keeping it.
The response to Avodart has been great. I have
not only stopped losing hair but my hairline has grown back somewhat.
noticed changes at around 3 months, then hair

Responding well as usual.
Have retained hair for a significant number
of years.

No thickening of hair or regrowth. Just a maintenance kind of thing. I
stopped the medication for about 4 weeks just for a short break. No side
effects what so ever. Sexual performance is great. temper is cool. I will
try it as combo with Minoxidil or Nizoral shampoo this time and keep you
updated with results :)
Hair stopped receding after taking Avodart.
Hair loss stopped.
If I remember right, it took about 6 months
to see results. (pardon me, I've been using it for years) the crown has
thickened, and it has slowed or stopped in on the front.
I have been using Avodart for a few years now
and have had fantastic results. I noticed results in my first 6 months
to a year and since then my hair has stopped receding and I think I have

hair line.
Avodart appears to have slowed my hair loss
for several years now.

Been using for 4 years and halted hair loss.
Had very thick thatch of dark hair, but like all of my family, on both
sides, the MPB came out to play. I was seen by several dermatologists and
had blood work for Thyroid and Telogen Effluvium was ruled out. Started
with Propecia 1mg daily. After a long 5 months, hair shedding slowed down.
5 years later switched to Dutasteride per day. Great stuff, no shedding-
no real regrowth in but hairless has slowed 98% since 14 years ago and
my hairline is pretty much where is has been for 14 years.
My response has been great. I began noticing
changes around 6 months after beginning it's use.

Ongoing regiment of Avodart and Minoxidil maintaining
hair.
I started thinning in the front and crown when
I was 22. I used Propecia and liquid Minoxidil until 2006. I started using
Avodart and Rogaine Foam in June 2006. This combination has regrown and
preserved my hair. I experienced a regrowth of some hair in the crown area
and thickening of my existing hair during my first year of usage. After
the first year, I have continued to hold my previous hair line. I have
been going strong on Avodart since June 2006. I am very pleased with the
results!
I can't remember what year I first started Avodart.
I think it has been 10 years now. It has slowed my hair loss down.
I think it has halted progression but not regrown
hair.
Started treatment with propecia, minoxidil and
hair transplant at age 30. Continue treatment with avodart past few years.
I have taken Avodart for a few years now and it has maintained my hair
density. No further hair loss
I have used Avodart for six months with good
results. I would like to continue.
I have been maintaining hairline for 8+ years.
Very gradual in early 20's. Starting using Avodart and have been maintaining
hairline since then.
very helpful with thickness of hair
No noticeable hair loss in target area.
Maintenance of current hair.
I have been taking Avodart regularly for the
past several years with no adverse effects whatsoever. When I started Avodart,
I moved off of Propecia and thus noticed no initial shedding. My hair count
has remained constant since starting Avodart and my crown has filled in
marginally. The most important thing is that it seems to have halted hair
loss for now. Hair loss started with temporal recession at 17 and halted
for several years during my 20s before starting again around 25 with mild
crown thinning. I used Propecia for roughly a year with no side effects
and no noticeable results. I sought a hair loss specialist who prescribed
Avodart, which I have been taking since. I feel that Avodart is responsible
for my retaining the hair I have.
Started to notice improvements after 6 months.
After getting off Avodart for a year or so,
my hair began to thin out again. Once I got back on it, my hair got thicker.
I don't believe I am growing new hair. I think my existing hair diameter
is getting thicker.
After a few months less hair fall, hair filled
in on back of head and maintained in front with some regrowth.
I have had periods of shedding and regrowth
since beginning on Avodart, but generally have maintained hair.
Response was good. Hair loss considerably slowed,
possible regrowth, Changes did not take too long - maybe 2 -3 months --
to notice.
Maintaining hairline, crown, and all other regions
well. Progression of hair loss is at least slowed. I've had no ill side
effects.
Shedding has been significantly reduced
I noticed some initial shedding and then my
receding hairline stopped and after about 6 months the shedding that I
was seeing dramatically reduced. I also noticed that the Hairs That were
shedding were becoming much thicker in general.
I lost hair from 16 through 18, began Proscar
at 18, at which point thinning slowed substantially but didn't stop. I
began taking Avodart 2.5 years ago (at 29) and have experienced mild regrowth
since then. I have experienced gradual regrowth overtime.
Just starting to notice changes. A few hairs
regrowth here and there in the bald areas. Hair has slowed in shedding,
although a little still occurs.
decreased hair loss. Been using Avodart for
years.
Good hair regrowth.
regrow some hair in the frontal lobe, no further
balding
Hair loss slowed and some hair regrowth
regrowth after 6 months or so
My response to Avodart has been excellent. I've
been taking it since 2002 and it has prevented my hairloss from progressing
at a rapid rate.
I've had only the best response which is hair
growth and maintenance. And I only take it one or two times a week to maintain
what I have. Great drug. Very reasonable for me price wise.
When I
take Avodart regularly I notice that shedding almost completely stops.
Once I am off for any period of time I notice a lot of shedding. Especially
on pillows after a nights sleep and when showering.
Many thicker hair shafts and grew some new hair
around edges of bald crown. Very much slowed down rate of any additional
hair loss.
Halted hair loss within 6 months of taking
Improved thickness after 6 months. It has been
working great, hair loss has stopped since beginning use.
Slight initial shed after the first month of
taking Avodart. Since then, hair fall seems to have lessen. Hair appears

hairline.

line has stopped receding.
Helps maintain current hair and has regrown
some on top and back

Basically keeping the hair I have.
I have had great results. I think it took about
3 months to notice improvement.

Hair thickened and looks healthier.
Hair Loss slowed down considerably, slight thickening
Hair loss slowed after a few months of taking
Avodart, there may have been very slight regrowth of some hair over the
first year or so, but my benefit has been the greatly reduced rate of hair
loss.
I have been on Avodart since June 2006 and it
has maintained my hair perfectly.
I've been using Avodart for approximately seven
years and the results have been very pleasing to me. Although my hair remains
thin, I have noticed a significant decrease in the rate of fallout since
beginning Avodart.
slowed hair loss
I've been on Avodart for several years now,
it has greatly slowed or stopped hair loss, and I have far more hair than
my older and younger brothers have COMBINED.
Starting use around 2006, have had excellent
regrowth (initial shed followed by gradual regrowth after a few months.

been no decrease in effectiveness since then and no side effects.

week. I have not seen much regrowth, but it is definitely helping me keep
the hair I have.
Has slowed down thinning, particularly on crown.
Well I noticed that hair loss completely stopped
since I started on Avodart within the first year. I've also noticed a small
amount of regrowth every year. Since the first year, everything has been
stable
Been taking it 10 years+, great results.
Shedding followed by progress
About 3 months of little change, then some regrowth.
Using for years so it has stabilized hairloss.
Avodart helps maintain my hair. I went off it
for 4 months and I can already tell my crown is thinner and so is the frontal
hair all around. my hair loss started in the crown at the age of 23. i
started to notice a lot of hairs falling out when i would get a scalp massage,
and then one day i notice a bald spot. i was a nw1 v with medication of
minox and propecia up until the age of 27, then the recession started.
i am class 4 with 11 years fighting hairloss with avodart for the past
5 years. i stopped for a little thinking maybe i could switch to propecia,
but that was mistake. sudden crown thinning and full frontal thinning all
around. want to go back on avodart. i feel without any treatment i would
already be a class 5 or 6
thickening of hair slowed hair
maintaining what I have
took about 9 months to start seeing some results.
Started with about a year of regrowth now it has done a good job at maintaining.

than thickened hair.

crown and front
I don't have such severe shedding. Hair loss
has completely stopped.
I did have initial shedding that took place
the first 4-5 months while using. As of now my hair loss has halted and
I think continued use will result in regrowth.
Progress in regrowth and thickening of hair
initial shedding. crown improvements.
I started using Rogaine foam twice daily for
approximately 3 months before starting Avodart. For the first month after
starting Avodart I noticed no change of any kind. Then for months two through
five I had significantly increased shedding. Despite the shedding my bald/thin
spot as well as the anterior crown has filled in with fine, lighter colored
hairs. The Vertex of my scalp has filled in significantly. It's not as
thick as the surrounding hairs but it's not bare like it was. I'm impressed
and I really hope to see more regrowth in the thin areas.
I started noticing changes after a couple of
months
It basically halted loss from the point of usage.
My hairline remains the same.

and fuller.
Been taking for years now. Pleased with results.
The drug has helped promote regrowth
I've had great results for the past 7 years
on this medication. It's slowed my hair loss down substantially and has
helped regrow hair in quite a few spots.
I started thinning in the crown
at 19 and it progressively got worse in my early 20s. I started using Rogaine
but saw very little results. Avodart has yielded the best results of anything
I've tried.

now, and I'd say I still have 80% of my hair since starting treatment.
I have been using Avodart for 10 years with

Initial shedding followed by regrowth and thickening.
I have been receiving prescription treatment
from Medical Wellness Center for my hair loss for several years. It started
with a prescription for Propecia in over 10 years ago and for the last
several years I have used Avodart. My response to the treatment I
have received for approximately 15 years has been good. Basically, my hair
loss has been stopped. I don't' have any regrowth that I notice, but my
hair loss HAS NOT progressed significantly for the last 15 years.
I've used Propecia since 22. When I hit 30,
my hair loss accelerated so I switched to Avodart which significantly slowed
it down.
It hs slowed down the shedding allowing me to
maintain more hair.
Overall thinning and accelerated crown loss
in 30's. Propecia and finasteride (5mg) had no effect. Dutasteride slowed
the process... Hair has been maintained with some regrowth (now 51).

away. Then saw thickening and have maintained ever since.

see changes. No initial shedding. Thickening and regrowth to the crown,
stabilization to the front. (since 2003 -2014)
My experience with Avodart was slow but steady
at first. Didn't notice much for about 6-12 months other than some initial
shedding, but after a year I noticed an improvement with new hair regrowth.
I have been taking avodart for several years now and have had no side effects
and only positive comments to say about it. My hair has basically stopped
thinning in the front and new hair has been growing. Initially I only wanted
to stop the receding hair, but Avodart has made my hair start to regow.
This product has made me very happy.
Shedding has stopped (2005-2014)
Initial shedding in in month 1, but then stopped
and hair is thicker.
Stopped hair loss. Some increase on top, but
no increase on sides/temples.
Although my hair continues to thin very gradually,
I think Avodart has helped maintain most of it.
Since taking avodart, I haven't noticed any
major hair loss or thinning. I don't think I've seen any regrowth but I
didn't expect that either. (6 months)
Hair loss has pattern has stabilized. Experienced
shedding and thinning, however this has resolved and overall the hair appears
thicker now. However, progress is slow. (2014-2016)
I have been using it for about 10 years now
and it has worked well.
Initial regrowth and stable thereafter.
It has worked well - I have been taking for
10 years and hair is definitely thicker and covers more than earlier.
There was some initial shedding, however, hair
began to regrow and thicken about 6 months. Hair is still thin on the crown
but is stable and not balding any further. (since 2008, over 8 years)
No regrowth, but improved hair quality and reduction
in hairloss.
Seen some thickening but have been shedding
recently (1st 6 months)
Hair stopped falling out within the first month
Regrowth after 4 months

Very good results, but hair that has grown back
seems very weak and fragile.
Started to shed at first couple of months, then
slowly showed regowth after few months.
I've been taking Avodart for around 6 years
now and have only experienced amazing hair growth. I was originally taking
Propecia which gave me great changes but Avodart has restored my original
hairline and original thickness and I only have to take it once a week.
At around 20, I noticed my hair falling out. At 25, I would spike it up
and it would not stay up. At 26, you could see the total
ring, it was all going to fall
out. I started taking Propecia and it stopped it and grew new hair. At
28, I started taking Avodart and it changed my life. My hair grew completely
back and got thick again.

some regrowth.

on hold with the use of avodart
Prior
to Avodart, I used Propecia. These medications have helped a lot. In my
mid - to late 20's, my hairline began to recede quickly nd I was shedding

a few years back, the rest of my hair has actually thickened.

thickness and less hair fall.
For the first 6 months ( approx) after starting
Avodart I noticed significant, daily shedding. I was concerned but stayed
the course. After that period the shedding decreased. After approximately
12 months my thin and extremely thinned superior posterior scalp areas

took about 9 months for a noticeable change in the density of both my hair

Great! Began noticing changes in around 3 months.
Temporarily had decrease in sexual drive and function, though this has
resolved (13 years 2002-2015)
Started seeing hairloss at age 22, got onto
Propecia / Proscar at age 23, but didn't see desired results. Switched
to Avodart at age 24 and immediately saw my hair loss halt. Began using
Avodart in March of 2013 (switched from propecia as it was not working).
Saw results immediately. Regrew some hair that had been weakening and have
seen virtually no further thinning in a year and a half.
Noticed diffuse thinning of hair at age 20 and
began using minoxidil. In 2002 started taking Propecia along with minoxidil
and noticed significant improvements. Around 2009 hair loss began to progress
again and started taking Avodart in 2010 instead of Propecia. Have noticed
significant improvements since that time. Noticeable improvements in thickness
were observed during the first year. Hair has been stable or improved slightly
since that time.
I experienced thicker existing hair, no new
growth, and some shedding. Overall, it greatly improved and maintained
my existing hair. I started noticing my hair loss when I was 20. I developed
some recession around the temples and thinning on the crown. I started
taking Avodart and noticed a huge difference in the thickness of my hair.
I tried switching to generic finasteride with terrible results and now
I would like to move back to Avodart. (2012-2015)
I have
used Avodart for several years. Initially, I noticed a dramatic decrease
in fall-out and general thickening. Since then, hair loss has been extremely
gradual and although hair continues to thin, the rate of thinning is substantially
slower than pre-Avodart. Thus far, I am very pleased with the treatment.
In my very late teens, I noticed minor thinning. By my early 20's, hairloss
accelerated noticeably and a combination of finasteride and Minoxidil as
suggested by my dermatologist effectively halted the loss and helped re
grow much of what had been lost. Several years later, the effectiveness
of that regimen weakened, and I switched to Avodart and kept using Minoxidil.
Since then, the rate have lair loss has declined significantly with some
thickening in the first couple of years. (12 years 2003-2015)
Grown of fine hairs in receding areas around
temples over 6 month period. Hair loss seems to stop. (2005-2015)
My hair loss has stopped and hair regrowth is
noticeable in crown and hairline (2011-2015)
After initial improvements, it appeared that
my hair loss had stabilized. More recently (within the last year) I have
noticed further thickness improvements. (2009-2015)
I have no problems with Avodart; I have been
taking it for years, and have kept my hair (2003-2015)
I began treatment with Avodart 2 years ago as
I was unresponsive to Finasteride. Avodart has worked for me extremely
well. I began noticing changes around 3 months in. My hair loss completely
halted and I began seeing regrowth and thickening. I renewed my prescription
in September of last year and am doing so again given the incredible success
I have had with it. I am no longer taking finasteride/propecia and I understand
it should not be mixed with Avodart. (2013-2015)
Some initial shedding when I began several
years ago. Hair loss has stopped entirely. Hair is still thin on the crown
but slowly filling in.
new growth noticed within 45-60 days of use
Within 3 months it slowed down, within 5 months
loss has stopped
I had some initial shedding, but after that
the medicine worked; my hair feels somewhat fuller and thicker (1st 6 months)
Slight thinning at the crown. About 3 months
before regrowth started
Initial shedding after 3 months, which seems
to come back periodically, but with less intensity. Thicker now than during
initial shedding
Regrowth after about two months.
Within 3 months I had seen some stabilization
in hair loss. Did not see any shedding as within 6 months I saw some thickening
and regrowth. Since then (February 20140 Avodart has stabilized and
supported a thicker set of hair since starting. Started losing hair at
about 17-18 as did my brother, started minoxidil at about twenty which
was effective for about 2 years. After I tried Propecia for about 2 years
in which this also become less effective. Switched to Avodart February
2014. Do not have a full head of hair like I once had but have definitely
been able to stabilize hair loss since it has started.
Appears to be maintaining hair thickness (2003-2015)
I have been taking Avodart for several years
now and the results have been very positive. Initially I did get some shedding
but after some time I believe I actually started growing new hair. My scalp
looks god and I haven't had any negative side effects from Avodart. I am
very pleased with the product. (2011-2015)
Hair has remained in place and there has been
regrowth, so that I have hair covering my entire head. (2004 -2015)
My hair is no longer falling out and it worked
to prevent my hair loss from worsening. (2009-2015)
I have been using Avodart for a number of years.
Previously used Proscar. Very good results. Regrew thinning areas and have
full head of hair. (2008-2016)
I have been using Avodart for a number of years
now. It took a few months but the most obvious change was the slowing of
hair loss and then regrowth. Have had very good results. Pace of hair loss
began to pick up in mid-late 20's, started minoxidil early, then propecia.
had some success with both in arresting the loss, but by early 30's the
loss started again. Avodart has been far and away the most effective treatment
over the long haul. Have been on it for a number of years now. (2007-2015)
Avodart helped regrow some of my hair in the
first 5 or so years that I took it. Noticed regrowth after about 4 months.
No shedding. After the fifth year, I think Avodart just helps with keeping
the hair I have, no more regrowth. n(2007-2015)
I've been using Avodart for a few years.
I noticed a slowing of hair loss after a few months. There may have

then (2012-2015)
Great thickening after 5 months (2005-2015)

my scalp (2004-2016)
My response to Avodart has been strong since
I started using it. I was losing hair before I started using Avodart. Once
I started using, it took about 2- 3 months until I noticed a change, but
then my hair started to get stronger and thicker. Since I have been able
to keep my hair loss in check. (2003_2016)
My initial response was great. I have been using
it since it came on the market and I definitely had moderate regrowth and
no further shedding (2010-2016)
Once started Avodart in 2002 the shedding stopped
and my hair started to thicken. I have sine maintained the hair I have

before taking it. (2003-2016)
Started to lose hair in my 20s and it just got
worse. Then I started using avodart and it is full and thick again. Started

thicker hairs beginning (6 months)
I've been on avodart for the past 5 years and
at first had a lot of regrowth, but now slowly losing hair again. i feel
as i have been on medications for the past 12 years this is normal and
the medications have def slowed down my aggressive hairloss. I noticed
a lot of hair shedding at the age of 22, and at the age of 23 saw a thin
spot on my crown. IN the last 6 or 7 years my hair line has receded and
the top of the crown continue to thin, but at a much slower rate as prior
to medication
Shedding decreased immediately.
Hair began noticeably thickening with 3 months of starting treatment.
Within 6 months fuller, thicker especially in
crown area; mitigated receding front; no real shed.

six to twelve months and a noticeable decrease in hair falling out. Although
hair continues to thin, the rate of fallout has decreased dramatically
and is almost stable. I've experienced very little hair loss since starting
avodart. Obviously, I'm very satisfied with the results.
Some new growth in areas, other areas continue
to lose hair, but hairloss has slowed noticeably. It started at the age
of 28. After the use of Avodart it stopped Good results after 4 months
of use.
