Hi all,
I am 37, a Norwood 4 or 5 and started taking 1mg a day of finasteride around 3 weeks ago.
When I began researching hair transplants my aim was to have a procedure by the end of the year. However I am now wondering if i am better waiting for the finasteride to take full effect. My logic (and correct me if I am wrong) is that i) transplanted hair will more likely be retained if I have given finasteride sufficient time and ii) stabilising hair loss will give the surgeon a better position to help plan my procedure around future hair loss.
Assuming this is correct (and it may not be) how long would you wait before having a procedure?
