This hair transplant video is really outstanding... Your explanation is really very good.
I am 21 with grade 6 baldness i tried everything to prevent hairloss now ,i can't afford hair transplant having mental breakdown and depression may god never do like this with anyone at such a young age 😢 . Feeling like giving up .
Can you not get on finasteride asap? May get some regrowth and save for transplant. Use the next few years concentrating on career. Get hair transplant later in 20s and you’ll have a decent head of hair and a decent career and the rest of your life ahead of ya 👍
You need to call for help. +91 8872238888
Thanks for this kind note.
AGA is like last stage of cancer for hair where there is no permanent medicine available. Even my life is completely destroyed due to this. Modern science has to find out more solutions for this problem as it is going to get worse over years where people at the age of 18-20 would go bald.
I can relate bro God have left us no where , such punishment without any reason is harsh. Hope for peace bro
With due respect sir, please make a debate video where you and an andrologist discuss that all possible hormonal imbalance causes by finasteride@present and post.
Sure
Thank you for awaring us about hair loss treatment.
Your video and presentation is always helpful and knowledgeable.easily described.thanks for your efforts.keep sharing.
One single dose off finesteride lowered 100% my libido in 2010.....when i checked through net for fin side effect.... Number one in the list is imputancy.... I stopped the same day fin
This is very nice video about hair transplant. Everything is well described. I like it
How can it be said that a single dose of oral finasteride cannot get sexual side effects when a single dose will lower DHT by 65% in just 8 hours?
because lower DHT levels dont lead to sexual side effects right away. The effects of the hormones are shown through interaction with their nuclear receptors, which switch genes on/off, resulting in expression of different proteins, which lead to certain effects. This can not happen in a single day, but needs some days normally.
This is an amazing video.Everything explained very nicely and easy to understand every point.I really appreciate the effort put into making this video.Thanks for sharing..
So you‘re advice is to push trough if feeling sides in the beginning-period like a lower libido?
Yes for the first 4 weeks if you were otherwise normal.
This is very nice video about hair transplant. Everything is well described. I like it. Thank for your sharing.
Very informative video as usual. Thanks Doctor
Amazing video.... Thank you so much for sharing this video with us 👌👍❤❤
Very informative video... Everything you described easily understable for everyone...It will help many people...Thank you for sharing
I am 17 years old, i was having uneven beard, I saw on internet that applying minoxidil on face will help grow a good beard, so I went to purchase it from my local pharmacy, he accidentally gave me minoxidil+finasteride solution, I unknowingly applied it on my face for about a week, twice a day. Now I have started to face the side effects of finasteride, now my penis does not get hard like before it use, I can't ejaculate enough after masturbation, and overall also I feel very tired. I stopped using it since 2 days, the side effects are still there. How long will it last, is it permanent, I am very scared as I can't even share about this to my parents. Please someone help me 😭🙏.
Very informative content about Finasteride Side Effects. Your explanation very clear and easily understood everything. Thanks for sharing your valuable information.
Very informative video.. Thanks for the sharing this valuable information about the finasteride side effects.. It's helps so much..
Wonderful video. Very helpful and informative.
Thanks for this information. It's helps me and my family.
Very informative video you shared with us..thank you for your valuable thoughts..
Very informative video.. thanks Doctor for sharing the information with us.. keep posting
Hello Sir, great content! If I am taking finasteride since 5 year daily and also lifting weights. Since 5 6 months ( moderate upto 10 kg dumble chest press ,10 kg biceps and so on ) mostly I go overall in any exercise is 10 kg ) here taking finastride daily will prevent further hair loss due to gym workout?In short if one is on finasteride is it ok to lift weights without worrying about losing hair? Thank You in Advance!
Also I have started taking 1.5 mg oral minoxidil! Are these two enough to exclude the damage that can come due to gym workout!! ?
This can be found out by trial and error. Most people will be able to contain their hair loss due to AA when on Finasteride while doing anaerobics. Oral Minoxidil is a valuable adjunct but needs to be taken under medical supervision. OM is best taken before bed time since it somewhat lowers blood pressure.
Hair transplant is very helpful video. Thanks for sharing.
U mean to say continue for 3 months then swich off for 1 months so that accumulated finasteride sheds off to remove side effects ...then continue finasreride again for 3 months then 1 month break and repeat the cycle ....am i right doc???
Switch off for 2-3 weeks. One month possible for some. Only when you are taking the medication for hair loss . After hair transplant you may need to take it non-stop for 6-9 months
Hello Doctor, can you help me by telling the name of tests required before taking finasteride.
Total testosterone, Free testosterone and Total estradiol at 8 AM
Sir i have watched most of yours videos can i use fenisteride as u have saying or should i visit dermatologist.
You need to see a doctor who treats hairloss preferably a hair transplant surgeon.
Sir after undergoing weightloss i dont experience any side effects with finasteride , i faced nipple pain and other discomforts with finasteride and chest pain with minoxidil. I think these medicines has a lot to do with your personal health like thyroid levels and fatty liver , acidity or ulcer.
Great videos!
Is there any way at all Finasteride can cause eye swelling and also black circles under the eyes? I do know it’s possible with minoxidil but have read Finasteride could also cause this but not sure if it’s true or not?
Thanks!
Never heard or read about this.
I wish I found your videos before I read all the crap on the internet! I took it for 7 weeks and I was terrified of ED…got ED. It got back to normal within 5 days and I’m sure it’s Nocebo effect. I have purchased a test and hormone blood test as you say everyone should and I’m doing it in the morning. If all good then I’m starting again next week 3x a week and build up from there if needed.
Keep me posted.
Thanks. I will do.
Hi doc, my test results came back as follows: -
Oestradiol - 46pmol/l
Test - 16.7nmol/l
Free test - 0.312nmol/l
Is this ok to start finasteride?
Oh, I am 35 years old and I have an office job so barely any exercise although if start fin then I’ll do 30-45 mins a day.
Thank you.
@@hairtransplantinindia.
@@peteralmond8169before taking the pill start going to the gym and be active!
Hello Doctor... I am taking finasteride for past 5 months and recently I experienced some side effects... So I have stopped taking it for a week should I stop it for a month or should I continue it again?
What are your levels and what is your age?
This video is very helpful nd very good thankyou sharing this video
Very helpful video and very useful just wonderful
Thank you doctor i'm so relief now
I had lose the sensitivity on penis right after my first dose. I still took it for 3 years and currently taking 1 month break. I also have insomnia that also has negatively affected my libido so I might just be super sensitive to the med.
@@rishabhrohit bro, are you still facing an issue even after stopping fanasteride?
Very informative and helpful video
Very helpful video, thanks for sharing.
How often should you taper finasteride? And to what dosage should you drop it to or just have a full on 2 week flush out?
every quarter stop it completely for a fortnight.
Hello doctor.One question
As minoxidil has initial hair shedding phase can finesteride has the same shedding phase?
While administered orally?
I was taking minoxidil 2.5mg/day
Now i am adding finasteride.
Thanks for your time🙏
Yes there is a shedding phase with Finasteride as well.
Very Informative video thanks for sharing
Does finestaride affect muscle growth ?
Not after 21 age
Thank you for sharing this informative video
Very helpful video thank you sharing the video
Hello doctor. I am 18 years old and facing some mild hair loss. It has left me very depressed for the past couple of months. But I don’t have a history of being depressed. I am thinking of maybe starting with topical finasteride soon. What do you think?
Yes please do and take Minoxidil alongwith. However the effect of topical Finasteride is very less.
@@hairtransplantinindia my hair loss isn’t too aggressive so I think I could benefit from it! Does it have less side effects?
If i doesn't shed using minoxidil means im non responder ?
Thanks in advance doc ❤
According to my consultant, no. Apparently something like 15% of people shed.
Most likely in the majority it means this. Intelligent question.
Sir why I lose tiny growing hair in scalp no big one diffuse hairloss on top and sideburn, age 20 , I lost 30 percent hair on top in just 3 month , tiny small hair fall easily with black bulb 😢
Can I take finestride
You need an evaluation by a hair loss hair transplant surgeon
@@hairtransplantinindia But sir what do you think
Cannot say anything just with these inputs.@@Primetrue
@@hairtransplantinindia pls sir help me , I am student now I am so depressed, if you help me I will be always thankful to you sir 🙏
Hi it’s been 11 days after my hair transplant and my front just a little it’s come off its whole maybe graphs came out not sure.
I wore a loose cap today not too tight and took my cap off from back side.
I left a bit heavy shopping bag made my head bit heavy.
Is it ok will it grow ok ?
Live your channel you give good advise
Thanks. It should not make any difference.
@@hairtransplantinindiaThank You Doctor so it will be will grow back then ?
Today my hair started to itch a lot been 13 days now I accidentally pressed hard to my head when messaging I forgot i put the spray it was fine but hope it doesn’t happen again.
I don’t want to tell my doctor because he already told me how.
Hello doctor bhatti, in your experience for how long hair loss treatment are effective, i am a diffuse thinner i had no hair transplant procedure yet and for over an year i am on hair loss treatment and they are still effective but i am stressed about seeing people on UA-cam claiming that hair loss treatments lose effectiveness.
They will lose effectiveness if hair transplant is the only cure you are ready to accept for your baldness.
Hello sir , how can i stop liquid minoxidil and continue just with finasteride?
It depends upon your condition.
Doctor I've been on topical fin +min for past 6 months and it's not at all effective....what should I do?
This video is nessesary to me ❤
Hello Sir, you knowledge on the matter and multidimensional approach is exceptional.
My testosterone was 356 and DHT 896. 3 years later (used topical fin for 1 year and off since 1 year) today testosterone is 284 and DHT is 174. I have 0 libido since last 1 year and sexual issues . What can be the reason of such drop in DHT? Age 36
Testosterone is always higher when on Oral Finasteride than when not on the medication.
Sir I take fanasteride from 15 days and at night I wake up after every 2 hours and see dream every day and this will not happen with me before.... Should I stop 1mg fanasteride?
Please stop it if you cannot take it. Or get an in person consultation with a doctor near to your home.
I take 1 dutasteride 0.5mg, 1 finasteride 1mg and apply topical finasteride 0.1% twice in every 10days. Topical minoxidil 5% about 7-8 times in 10 days. Hairfall is very less now. But whenever comb get to see many (4-6) very thin hair falling out. The density has not decreased whatever it was since the shedding phase stopped after minoxidil' 1st 4months.
This medication regimen looks foreign to me. However, we all shed and regrow 100 hair daily
Does it lower sperm counts and might have problem of having kids?
Yes if not evaluated properly.
Some people say that finasteride will block DHT for certain period of time (1-2year) after some period of time it doesn’t work so need to raise the dosages. Is that true?
That is not true.
An useful video. Must share with others.
sir I have used finasterides 1mg regularly for 6 months and 7 days but now I am feeling ED problems I also do not do any physical activities and I am also facing low desires should I continue using the drug or stop it for sometime like 15 days or 3 week ?
What were your testosterone and estradiol levels before you started Finasteride?
Suppose sir some desperately want to you use Finastried but also facing side effects what should they doo????
Is there any alternative
They need a consultation and stay in touch with treating doctor.
excellent review for sharing
Does shedding happen after 2 weeks is the hair secure after 2 weeks ?
I was working at work and I some hair came off because an all of bags in cage dropped on my head.
No problem even after 7th day post procedure
@@hairtransplantinindiahi my side so itchy been 1 months and half I forgot not to itch on side will it grow back ?
Just a spot on side hair is gone rest is fine.
I hit my head on a machine screen because it’s low on the side and the cages handle on the middle a little does it still affect ?
I don’t want to tell my doctor yet he want me to see my hair after 3 months to see how it’s coming. Till then just want to be sure.
Sir,
Can you give guidance on how long should we wait for finasteride to work before we switch to dutasteride
Should finasteride be given at least 6-12 months before making the complete change to dutasteride regularly and switching off finasteride
Usually the effect comes in 6-9 months if it has to.
Hello Doctor, I have been suffering from hair loss for a long time and the density was decreasing.Then I see the doctor and the doctor tells me that I have androgenic alopecia. Baldness runs in my mother's family and not in my father's family. Doctor told me to take minoxidil and finasteride one mg daily. Even after taking these medicines for three months, my hair loss did not stop. Then I went to the doctor and the doctor told me to stop finasteride and take menoxidil and multivitamins.
Can I take finasteride on my own because the hair loss is still going on.
You could get a consultation with me. +91 9814531111
I’m having finasteride and I’m having breathing problems I been using it for 4 months now. If I continue using it wikl it improve?
You need to see a local doctor. Usually this is not due to Finasteride.
@@hairtransplantinindiaok and if I stop using it will the side effect start ?
My hair hasn’t grown been 4 months now I still have a bald patch on front back crown area.
I thought finasteride helps it grow hair but it doesn’t I’m using 1mg
Thanks 🙏🏼 for replying love your channel btw 😊
Thanks For Making This Video Sir
Sir i want to stop finestride after 8 days of use i had side effects too should i taper it or go cold turkey as i have consumed less fin please answer
Side effects get resolved as the body readjusts to changed hormonal environment within 4 weeks.
Sir I've been taking Finasteride 1mg as per my dermatologist adviced since i was 20 yrs old. And now after more than a year i have hair and no signs of falling but i noticed that after a few months of regularly taking it my semen was kind if thin. Should i be concerned?
bro, do you hit the gym if you don't please do and take vitamin and mineral supplements, especially zinc.
You could get your semen analysis done to confirm.
Very helpful video
Sir can telogen eflovium or stress cause hair miniterization??
With underlying androgenic alopecia, yes it can!
@@hairtransplantinindia Hello doctor. I am 25yrs of age and my father started to go bald(diffused thinning) at around 40yrs of age. I have been in depression and Stress for the last 3-4 yrs and since last 2
yrs my hair has thinned out and has shed rapidly. Do you think stress and depression has aggravated my MPB??
Yes stress has a role as an epigenetic factor in hastening the balding process.@@adwaitkale315
Hello sir, i am using demoroller and minoxidil at the same time and i am seeing result. what if i stop minoxidil and continue only with demorlling, will my hair still fall off?
Yes it would when you stop an effective treatment it always does.
So why will it fall out when I am continuing with demoroller? It means if I was only using demoroller without minoxidil and I decided to stop demorolling, the hair will still fall off
Doctor im 17 and i have excessive hair fall and my hairline is already reccising so i have started taking finasteride please reply can i continue it
This needs an assessment. Also Finasteride is not approved before 18. I prefer giving it only after 21. Thanks for the question.
I will cover this question tomorrow 6 AM in my live session.
@hairtransplantinindia thank you sir please make a vedio on this topic
I answered your question in today's Live at 6
About how much time does Finastride start to show result???
6 months usually. Some times a year. In a few cases- never!
if i switch the fin dose to slightly more ...does shedding phase come again?
Yes some amount of shedding should happen if previous smaller dose was insufficient to control thinning..
You taking more than 1mg a day?
If we start taking finasteride at the age of 25, do we need to take it for life long to protect our hair?
It depends upon how strong your genetics is. Will differ from person to person.
Hello Mr doctor I'm 21 yrs old taking fin for 1 month and I'm noticing decreased libido. How can I stop fin or is that nocebo effect if nocebo effect how can I overcome that
What was your hormonal profile?

Hi Sir. I just started with finasteride. 1mg every other day. Just take it for a week, i feel tirednes after 3pill. Is this normal and will go away or should i stop. Thanks Doc.
Not likely due to it. Wait for 4-6 weeks and then take a decision whether you would like o continue it or not. That is a personal decision.
Hi doctor my doctor has prescribed me dutasteride 0.5mg 3 times a week with topical min(5%) and fin(0.1%) everyday...how long will it take for the results to show up and is dutasteride 0.5mg 3 times a week more effective than 1mg finasteride everyday?
This is not a regimen I am confident that will work.
Thank you for sharing.
In your experience, have you observed patients who have preserved their head full of hair with finasteride throughout their lifetime without undergoing a hair transplant?
Yes I have but then their hair loss was more or less stable.
Thanks for good video
Hai doc how many minutes after minoxidil application i can comb my hair. I done hair transplabt 3 and a half months ago. i had grown a little amount of hairs which is good to comb iam using minoxidil twice day along with finasteride
light combing without touching skin immediately after.
Thanks Doc!
How can i book a online consultation with you ?

Hi Doctor, started using finasterid and developed a little soreness in my testicals but otherwise no sexual side effects regarding libido (would even go so far to say it increased). What would you recommed in terms of the therapy? Will hormonal balance stabilize and the soreness diminish/go away?
How much time since starting Finastreide?
Change felt after 4/5 day and then immediately stopped medication.. should i resume?
What was your total testosterone level before starting?@@iphoneftw95

So you mean if I use just demoroller and decide to stop my hair will fall off?
Yes
It's awesome hoping for new video
Sir can excess musterbation cause AGA?
No
So why will my hair fall out when I stop minoxidil and continue with demoroller When i was using bothe of them at the same time,It means if I was only using demoroller without minoxidil and I decided to stop demorolling, the hair will still fall off
Any change in effective treatments will cause hair shedding.

Experiencing loss in libido is common for the first 2 weeks...
You will feel normal from the third week...
As I have said in the video if your levels were normal before starting, these should disappear in 4-6 weeks time.

Were you not having ED before starting it? What were your androgen levels before starting?
@@hairtransplantinindia I’m normal before taking it..
And your testosterone levels before starting? @@TheJapansoftlogic
I didn’t checked my testosterone level and androgen before my transplant but I’m fully strong before my transplant after transplant they gave to use fin daily actually don’t know about this issue will occur doctor also did not mention it
So best is to stop it and start all over again after 60 days following hormonal tests.
Nice
