22 yr old male, Ive been on 1mg finasteride since the past october, my shedding amount has not really changed, i have increase of diffuse thinning on my temples. Ive been taking a daily vitamin and have added biotin recently to see if I can get some more results. Is it too late? Am I just not responding to the medication? My PA said give it a year and then in a return visit my dermatologist says that I should have responded by now and then said i should get FUE and renewed my fin prescription.

Answer: Hair loss not improved with finasteride I would consider adding PRP (platelet rich plasma) to your treatment protocol. A series of monthly injections (plus maintenance treatments approximately every 6 months after) should boost your hair. It will lessen shedding and help you to regrow your hair naturally. PRP contains growth factors found in the platelets of your blood. They are concentrated and injected into your scalp to maximally stimulate your hair follicles.

Answer: It is best to consult a specialist Any treatment you do in relation to hair takes about 3 months to show any form of results.If your dermatologist has not found any condition then should you consult a hair specialist to better assess what your options are. Using finasteride is a great first stop to counter attacking hair loss. There are non surgical treatments such a PRP that also help in slowing down the hair loss and sometimes also strengthening your existing follicles.
