Doc This might be a fairly prudish question (more hygienic implications than medical) but I will ask it anyway. How often do you recommend washing hair (for people with copious hair loss) with Nizoral. secondly, I have been on 1mg generic finasteride for the past 6 months (although I started experiencing hair loss 7 years back, but did not pay heed to the thinning hair until recently). Do you think there will be any effect of the drug? Thanks

Dr. Rassman, Thank you for maintaining this blog, its great to have a free trustworthy resource in a world full of scammers and misinformation. I’m a 24 year old man and have been experiencing loss since age 18. I started on Propecia at 20 and was able to maintain my hair and score some regrowth. Unfortunately I stopped taking the drug for...
My son is 17 and he has been receding and thinning significantly on top for the past 12 months. We took him to our derm and he rxed propecia which he has been on for 7 months today. Not only has he not seen any re-growth but has lost even more hair. We put him on generic finasteride because its cheaper. Should we move him to brand propecia? Do you...
Helllooo Doc! Been on propecia almost exactly a year, not great results but things seemed to be stabilizing. About 3 months ago i added 2% nizoral shampoo to my regime and my hair has really thinned out since then. Have you ever heard of nizoral causing a shed or hairloss? Helllllloooooo! I haven’t heard of hair thinning or shedding with Nizoral...
I would like to thank you first for this wonderfull and highly educating blog.I am a 20 years old Male with type 1 diabetes. I have been experiencing hairloss for the past 2 years. I tried Regaine for the past year but stopped it because of the major itching it was causing. My two questions are if I started taking propecia, would it cause me any...
Doctor Rassam, I have recently started taking anti-anxiety drug escitalopram clonazepam after consultation with a doctor. Please let me know can I also take finasteride along with it. This is a question for your prescribing doctor who knows your medical history. Generally speaking, finasteride does not seem to produce problems with most other medications....
Hi I’ve just started on finasteride, and I’m wondering if it is possible to see side effects (impotence) after only a couple of days on the drug. I’m not sure if it’s just my anxiety and over-analysis causing the problem, or if it’s actually the drug itself. I’d really really appreciate a private answer. Thanks!...
Nizoral makes my hair darker by Myhairloss, age 29, who has been using Nizoral for two months: I had read that Nizoral shampoo helps eliminate DHT in the scalp and decided to give it a go, although I am not suffering from dandruff. I am using minoxidil and generic Propecia daily against my hair loss and now, since about eight weeks ago, I shampoo...
Hi Dr Rassman, I am a big fan of your site, and you have answered couple of my questions via your blog. I am 24 and been using finasteride 1mg generic per day for the past 14 months. I have got a receding hairline and vertex and it is on norwood 3 vertex. After started fin, there is an increase in the hair density at the hairline but vertex is continuing...
Dear sir, When I started on finasteride I noticed a very strange but rather pleasant side-effect: an increased libido. This makes sense since finasteride raises the levels of total testosterone; it is, however, contrary to the science literature, which commonly reports DECREASED libido as a potential side-effect. Why do some men suffer a decreased...
I just switched from Propecia to generic Proscar (cut into fourths). The pills I am cutting are extremely small, and thus difficult to cut! Always be sure consult your pharmacist about the size of generic Proscar before filling your script! Consulting your pharmacist about the size of the pill is great advice. Let the pharmacist know that you’re...
