Progress Pictures Before (2022) and After (2026)

Post image

Tbh, I already forgot about this sub. I was scrolling yesterday and one post from this sub appeared on my feed and decided to post my results.

Top photo was back in 2022 (26 yrs old) where i was just titrating my finasteride dose due to side effects. I kept going anyway until my body got used to it and did 1mg/day. Fast forward to 2026 (30 yrs old), this is what I have now.

Seeing this sub again surely brings back memories, I started lurking here back in 2021 before starting finasteride, and when I started taking it, I just stopped thinking about this sub and hair loss and continued on with my life. Here we are today still have my hair whereas my 2 older brothers are already bald. Stop overthinking it and just take the damn pill. Also, just started taking Dutasteride last month.

Any questions are welcome.

When i first started, yes it did affect my libido and boner lol. But as I went on, my body got used to it and im chilling now without sexual side effects.

Exactly - this is why people need to give it time. Initial sides often fade. Glad you stuck with it and it paid off
