Shedding after 1 week on Finasteride

Can anyone with experience of Finasteride users tell me if shedding after 1 week on Finasteride is normal? I'm shedding Hairs from mpb areas plus also from non mpb areas, the shedding is not severe so is not a Telogen effluvium.
Hoping someone with years of experience of dealing with Finasteride patients can answer.

Many people do shed initially when starting finasteride dude yes. Not everyone but many do.

I know a shed on Finasteride is normal, just wondering if shedding after just 7 days is normal. Most people talk about shedding months in the treatment.

Shedding can start after 7 days, it`s usually a sign things are working as once the shedding stops, the hairs will grow back stronger and thicker.
