I took Propecia for 3 years, and 2 years ago I did a FUE hair transplant and kept on taking 1mg of finasteride per day. 5 months ago however, I stopped taking Propecia, and plan to start it again. My question is: After this 5 month gap, will Propecia cause again the initial shedding, and if yes, will this affect the transplanted hair? Thanks so much in advance!

Answer: Propecia If you had initial shedding the first time you started using it I would expect you to again have some initial shedding- however, you may be lucky and not have any this time around. Just like how Propecia primarily helps areas with natural hair from losing any more hair, any initial shedding would also only happen in those areas.

Answer: Restarting Propecia Restarting Propecia will not cause any problems or shedding. In fact you should start to see less shedding of your non transplanted hair after a month or two. Your transplants are not affected. Also, look into Costco for your Propecia/finasteride. The cost is much lower there.
