community If finasteride and dutasteride are supposed to maintain the hair that you have, then why do you go through a shedding phase?
Hair loss treatments Finasteride and Dutasteride may cause shedding, but it's a good sign as miniaturized hairs are replaced by thicker ones. Shortness of breath may be experienced from Dutasteride or oral Minoxidil.
