I have started finasteride 2 months ago. After starting finasteride intial 2-3 week my hairfall increased. Now after 2 month I feel some percentage strength and also my hairfall reduced comparative to starting stage of finasteride. But I can't see any hairgrowth. So should I continue with this finasteride? I take 1mg pill a day at night.
